Lately, I have sat in doctors' waiting rooms countless of
times watching the TV. It seems they are
getting away from the all news stations like FOX NEWS and CNN and going to all
medical advic.. However, several doctors
office are playing HGTV.
I am now hooked on
HGTV.
At first I found it only mildly interested. But the more I watched it the more I found it
interesting. You get to see unique homes
and study people in what they want in a
house. Some people are rude and
demanding and want more than their budget allows. In other words you are a voyeur in a couple's
business of having to juggle things around and compromise and pitch
hissy-fits. And the good part about it they don't seem aware a cameraman on your
behalf is right in the middle of them.
You can see the joys of being invisible.
I noticed some of the women clients or the wife part of a
couple come off like a typical spoiled daddy's girl. Well, they can't tell the real estate agent
or the seller they will be extra cute for them.
Only money speaks. Watch it! Daddy's girl might whine if she doesn't get her way!
I watched the agents show houses all over the world, Ecuador, Dominican
Republic, Iceland, little one acre islands, Alaska, Atlanta, Smyrna, Woodstock
Marietta, and many more. Property
is available almost anyplace if you have the money.
Like I said it is mildly interesting. Not enough interesting that you are going
down in flames if the agent or the buyer doesn't get their way. So, because you have nothing to lose, you can
watch them haggle all day.
Being that these home hunting wheeling and dealing videos are
coming from all over the world, there is probably more than one person with a
camera handling it all. They had a few
from the Atlanta area. They probably
have free lancers from all over.
Which brings me to a thought of a new program very similar to the regular format
they have now. The buyer lets the seller
or agent khow their "budget" is and then they start compromising.
The different twist
to this program is when a potential buyer gets extremely demanding or fussy the seller will make faces behind his or her face. The agent will do things like put his fingers
in his mouth and stretch his lips to a distorted face.... or sometime just the old raspberry,
and of course the potential buyer won't know about this unless he or she turns
around quickly then the show will even get better - talk about reality TV!
