Real Estate Email Humor
This is an email I recently received that I would like to share with you. It deals with the way we each perceive our house / home to be and how everyone else involved in the ownership or management of our house perceives it. I found it quite humorous. I attempted to keep it as intact as possible while recreating it in a blog post.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Your House As Seen By:
Yourself…
Your Buyer…
Your Lender…
Your Appraiser
Your Municipal Tax Assessor…
I find it unfortunate, however comical, that this scenario is far more prevalent than we would like to admit. One one hand, we want the perceived value of our home (for selling purposes) to be high. On the other hand, when it comes time for a Tax Re-Assessment, we want it to be perceived as a small one bedroom shack. Unfortunately, the reverse is true. The municipal authorities, in their ever vigilant attempt to keep the city solvent, generally relish the opportunity of re-assessing property values and of course inevitably raising our property taxes.
