Bank Owned Homes---I think I need a shower now!!!

I just got back in the office after a long morning of previewing some bank owned homes. I always know that when I walk into a bank owned home, to expect the worst. However, I really think that some people should definitely take a little more pride in their job. These bank owned homes all have listing agents and listing brokers, so it's not like the bank has no representation, and the home is sitting vacant for months and months with nobody ever to see it. Are these brokers and agents not checking up on their listings?

I understand that most of these homes were left in bad condition and the asking price typically reflects that bad condition. However, people should do a little house cleaning to tryand tidy up these places just a bit. I walked into quite a few today that had broken tile all over the place, trash and clothes scattered about and let's not even get started with some of the smells I smelt. Seriously, sweep up the broken pieces, throw the trash away and maybe febreeze the place a bit. Take some pride in your profession. Maybe placing the home on the MLS and sticking a sign in the yard works for you. If that is the case, more power to you.

However, at Davis Signature Realty LLC, we take pride in our listings. We check to make sure the yards are being kept up and trash in the vacant homes are cleaned up. Placing a sign in the front yard is not good enough for us. We want our listings to be a reflection of our business. I realize that some owners are flat out messy and there is nothing you can do. That is not the case for these vacant homes. Sorry for the rant this afternoon. I am finished, I feel I really need to go shower now. Have a great day!!
