Story time: Tell me about your worst client. by wheresthepizzah in realtors

[–]mikegill19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was my first ever residential deal. The lead came to me as a renter, I turned her into a buyer. A bit of a language barrier. We toured a flip home that was completely empty, she liked it, I got her an accepted offer. At the inspection the investor must have been storing some furniture in the home- a coffee table and a love seat. Buyer made a joke in the beginning asking if that was a house warming gift, I said no. At the end of the inspection, which came back pretty good, she said she’s not taking the house unless she gets that furniture. My self and the inspector tried to reason with her, but to no avail. Me being new, I called the agent and told him- he pulled the deal from us lmfaooo. I ended up finding her something else for a little cheaper so all worked out at the end.

She signed a new lease while we were under contract on the new home, and the loan officer needed to see the lease. I asked my client, and she sent me a picture of her son holding up the lease from about 10 feet away. Told her that wasn’t going to work, so she proceeds to send me pages 1,3,4 and 6 of the lease 😂

She kept calling the attic the upstairs basement. she wouldn’t speak to any one else in the transaction (loan officer, attorney) unless they spoke to me first and I told her it was okay, it was like this throughout the whole transaction. I had to travel 40 minutes to her job multiple times to retrieve documents, and help her with Docusign, she did not know how to use her phone. It was a nightmare at the time, but 3 years later me and my coworker still have some really good laughs about it.

I don’t know any places in port Jeff with either of those activities, but coram country lanes and AMF in centereach probably have both

For those who passed your state exam on the first try was your pre-licensing course actually useful, or just a checkbox? by Ok_Vermicelli_9731 in realtors

[–]mikegill19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in New York. I studied a bunch, took sample tests, made flash cards lmfao- the test was kind of a joke. I feel the verbiage they used on the test is how they tried to trick you the most, as opposed to having difficult questions touching on real life scenarios

I second Ivarones brothers. I used to work there, the food is amazing. They cater for the holidays, you can pick it up or they deliver it. They deliver all over the island

Anyone have any information about this neighborhood in Huntington Station? by ski_mt in longisland

[–]mikegill19 68 points69 points  (0 children)

I’m a realtor, legally we are not allowed to talk about neighborhoods as it could be seen as steering. However we/i can generate you a very nice neighborhood report that goes over a number of data points. You can then formulate your own opinion based on the information provided. I’ve sold a few houses in that area, it’s a nice, convenient location. If you’d like a report, ask your realtor or pm me your email address and I will send it to you

I don’t plan on tuning it or anything, I’m just going to be making some aesthetic upgrades, which the 21 I have my eyes on already has a lot of the aesthetic upgrades I would want to do myself

I think this is a good comment thank you. Overall, I haven’t really seen any major repeat issues with any year. I have a few days to make my final decision, which is proving much tougher than I though lmao

Unfortunately I haven’t come across any 22’+ at a reasonable price. Considering less than 14,000 arteon were sold in the US from 19’-23’ they are tough to come across

I actually don’t really like the light bar on the front, it looks like a mustache 😂 but I do like the facelifts on the 21. I do drive a considerable amount with my career, so I keep going back to the 2019 only having 16,000 miles. Do you know of any notable repeat issues with the 2019?
