Gifts from Real Estates!!!
 
I have heard of some great gifts recieved fromm the Real Estate, upon settlement.
We have just moved into a new house, we bought and sold 2 properties through the same woman, whom in my opinion, was crap!! We made her a fortune, and what did we get?? Sweet nothing. Not that we are in deperate need of a gift, but it would have been nice. Instead she asked me to write her a testimony, saying how good she was??????????????????????

Write her a scathing testimony listing all her faults and poor performances ;)

On the day our house settled, I went to pick up the keys (from Pam Gray's Estate Agents) and they handed them over attached to a bottle of bubbly. A week later the estate agent turned up at the house with a card and a nice glass fruit bowl. .
A couple of days ago I got an unexpected gift through the post from the ANZ bank. A nifty little silver torch for putting on your keyring, although my kids much prefer sticking it up their nostrils in a dark room and making their noses glow. They're easily amused :D

Mine said we have a gift for you can we call it over after work, I said I am at the rental at the mo but should be back later. That was 4 weeks ago and I'm still waiting at the front door, I think do you think I should give up :p

Quite agree Larissa.......a right tight arse, and I know she made at least $25,000 out of the sales. Probably even more. Cant spill the beans on here though as you never know who is browsing!!!!

PS That picture of bubs is bloody fab!!!
