House Hunters: What Realtors should never say

One of my favorite shows on HGTV is “House Hunters”. The show follows people all over the country, & now world trying to find a home. You get to see how much apartments, condo’s, townhouses, & homes are, what is important to people, & even how they decorate the apartment after. It seems the only common dominator is every other real estate agent welcomes people into their office to sign the offer with “Ready to sign your life away?”. You just spent weeks trying to convince this people that hideous wallpaper is an “easy fix”, and that they can always expand to add the second bath they wanted, and now you are mocking them? Smooth, very smooth. I guess this is supposed to be funny, or the real estate equivalent of how are you?  It just seems like poor salesman ship, if a real estate agent even says that to me, I am just going to say “Nope, I’m not” & walk away.
