Homes by God

To see how the other half lives, I peeked at some of Orange County's most expensive and luxurious listings. A seller with $15,000,000.00 to $25,000,000.00 dollars worth of home would expect a high level of competence from their Realtor.

The Shady Canyon Estates in Turtle Rock, Irvine, and select areas of Newport Beach, Newport Coast and Monarch Beach boast trophy homes befitting royalty.

So what are a few misspellings and grammatical errors? For an almost $500,000 commission (a million if it's double-ended!), I'm wondering if proof reading a listing is a lot to expect; or providing local school information, or the basics of home operating systems.

Most agree having plenty of good pictures is a good idea. It excuses many other mistakes, right. (I've embedded my tongue so far in my cheek I need a crowbar to pry it loose!)

Reviewing the listings of homes made by God, I would expect a Realtor of ecclesiastical competence.

Wouldn't you?
