Any realtor that’s been in the game for a while and is actually good at what they do, is not even gonna waste their time on showing you a house that you can’t afford.

Sure, in an open house, can you walk around and look? Absolutely.

Are they gonna spend much time with you without having a lender qualify your price range? Not a chance

No, but my wife has an aunt who gets off on service people waiting on her. She likes go to luxury shops and put on. It's weird and fairly pathetic.

I mean when my wife and I were looking to move we did the Parade of Homes deal and there were a couple on there that were super expensive and we walked through mainly for ideas..

Heck no! That’s sad bro! Almost as sad as starting a thread about imaginary people’s imaginary shortcomings to boost one’s own ego!

Pics of the Aunt (and your wife) to see if they are worth pretending to be subservient…..

I’m starting to feel sorry for you even if this is a troll post.

No

That is somebody else job. Not wasting their time to deal with me and maybe they lose a real sale. What is wrong with people these days?

Bad enough in the 50's and 60's when people would look in your medicine cabinet when visiting.

So you drop your Hi-Point .380 into your jeans, exit your shack. Hop in your '88 Justy, tour a 5/5 4000sq new build, and then when back at the shack your ego is fully restored?

Way back when we lived in California and only had two young kids, we spent some time in Pebble Beach. We were driving the 17-mile drive and the kids were getting restless. So, we stopped at a house for sale with "a million dollar view for only $695,000." It let the kids romp for a few minutes and give us a break. The kids did just fine and didn't mess anything up. It was worth the 20 minutes.
