If Your Home is on the Market, Keep Your Guns Locked Up, Your AMMO Put Away, and Your Deer Head OFF the Table- Please

I just can't make this stuff up. I viewed a home today with some clients and the home was very clean and nice. However, when we walked into the living room, it was rather small and had a theme- Deer heads. Yep, that was the theme. The couch was covered in deer pictures and the wall had several of them mounted. The table in the room had what I assume was a fresh one that hadn’t been mounted. It was just sitting on the table staring at me. We also saw other various skulls and animal trophies.

I am not opposed to hunting, but this freaked me out a little. What freaked me out more was when we went downstairs we saw a very large gun case. I have no idea what type of guns these were because I am not a hunter, but they were big- and the case had a key in it, but was left open. That is a huge safety issue. I was just imagining children viewing this home, or criminals, or crazy people, for that matter.

As we entered one of the bedrooms, the ammo was lined up very neatly all over one of the desks. It was very orderly, but out in plain sight. I found that to be weird.

Needless to say, the clients were not interested. One of them has seen hundreds of homes in her lifetime and she commented that this will be one she will not ever forget.
