Unexpected Entry #1

A real estate agent had permission to show a home, using a key. He rang the doorbell, and when there was no response, he opened the door with the key. Noticing the sound of a vacuum cleaner, he asked his buyers to wait in the entry until he let the seller know they were there so she wasn’t startled. He found the seller vacuuming in a bedroom, wearing…well, less than one would when welcoming someone to your home.

Needless to say, both the seller and the agent were startled!

Unexpected Entry #2

      A tenant was a resident in a property that was being sold. The tenant was cooperative about showings, except an appointment was required. One day the tenant came home from work early with a serious migraine headache, took some medication to relieve the pain, disrobed, and collapsed across the bed, falling soundly asleep.

A real estate agent either didn’t notice or ignored the requirement of an appointment. She called on her cell phone from in front of the property…no answer. She rang the doorbell…no answer. Turning to her clients she said that apparently no one was home. It should be all right for them to go inside.

The tenant groggily opened her eyes to see the agent and her buyer standing over her at the bed!

Unexpected Entry #3

The sellers were confident that their large dog would not be a problem when the home was shown. They had a cage available to put it in whenever a showing was scheduled.

The real estate agent neglected to see the remark about the need to cage the dog. She called and left a message on the recorder that she would be showing the home, and when. She then proceeded to include it on the buyer’s tour.

The agent retrieved the key from the lockbox, but didn’t ring the doorbell before unlocking the door. When the door was opened, the dog heard the intruders and came running around the corner, barking.

At that time the dog seemed like a very large dog.
