Over the past few days I have learned something about myself. I have a severe case of Real Estate A.D.D.
Now, if you know me, then you know that the phrase “A.D.D.” is not normally an accurate word to describe me. I tend to be a very focused, not easily distracted, and intense individual. However, all that gets thrown out the window when it comes to looking at real estate.
Heather and I have been looking at houses in Oklahoma City this week. We have been diligent and hardcore about seeing as many houses as I can in the short amount of time we are here. Yesterday we looked at 20 houses. To make matters worse, it was 100+ degrees the entire time during our 20 house search.
I have learned that I am good and focused for 4-5 houses. After that, the Real Estate A.D.D. kicks in and my mind starts to wander, all the houses start to look the same, and I start to get distracted by anything shiny.
Real Estate A.D.D. kicks in even faster on websites like realtor.com (kicks in after looking at 2-3 houses).
Anybody else suffer from Real Estate A.D.D.?
That is hysterical! Sorry it’s been a bit overwhelming. I’m sure you’ll know the right house as soon as you see it.
I totally understand! Jacoby and I bought our house 3 years ago but we got so addicted to the “house hunting” process….that we still “look” DAILY! We are keeping our options open! LOL! Have a safe trip! Gonna miss you guys!
Oh, Ya! You do better than I do! After the second house I didn’t like, I’m ready to home.. I hate shopping!
Real estate agency is a hard job.It needs more attention than a usual job.Also estimation and empathy are key requirements.
