Confessions of a Real Estate Agent

Coldwell Banker Taxi Story

We could maybe make this into a Reality TV show!  What does your Realtor do in his off time or as a 2nd job as he tries to climb the Top Producers Club?  A good question to ask the next time you see him or her.

True Story:  Yesterday, I was in the South End in Boston (yes, making another offer on another condo unit) and I had a great 2nd showing.  Things are looking good…and will keep you posted.  Running a tad late for a meeting, I jumped a cab to the Back Bay.  Just a normal ride across town.  The cabbie was very polite and got me to “point B” with no problem.  I paid the cab driver and opened the door to get out….then BAMN….the cabbie hit me with a business card and a quick sale pitch, “Hey, if you are buying or selling a new home, call me and I can be your broker.”  Stunned…I said thank you and that was it.

So I stare at this business card today writing this blog.  I guess at the end of the day, he is just a hard working individual like many of us.  Well, I guess their is no real point of the story here…but thought it was interesting.  I know your all wondering…so Ill tell you who he worked for:  Coldwell Banker.

He has the Flux Capacitor on his cab. This must be how he finds the time to work Real Estate AND a second job.

$900/sf, are you going to fill us in on where you were looking? Is that a new development, or resale? There are only a few true $900/sf properties in the South End…
