CONFESSION #0232 — SELLER MELTDOWN
Wednesday, October 29, 2025
I listed a house three weeks ago and my seller has called me every single day to ask why it hasn't sold yet. Every. Single. Day. Yesterday she suggested that maybe I'm not "marketing it aggressively enough" because she only saw it posted on four social media platforms instead of five. I had to gently remind her that we priced it sixty thousand over what I recommended, she refused to let me stage it, there's a literal shrine to her cat in the living room that she won't remove, and the basement smells like something died down there. Which, based on the cat shrine situation, might actually be accurate. But sure, the problem is definitely my Instagram strategy. She also keeps texting me Zillow listings from 2019 asking why those houses sold in three days. Ma'am, that was a different economy, a different interest rate environment, and presumably those sellers didn't have a room dedicated to Mr. Whiskers' memory. I've started responding to her calls from my car so I can scream into the void immediately after hanging up.

Judge Reginald Escrow III
⚖️ Presiding
GUILTY OF FIRST-DEGREE CLIENT DELUSION ENABLEMENT AND ACCESSORY TO SHRINE-BASED PROPERTY SABOTAGE
This Court has reviewed the evidence and must ask: did you or did you NOT allow a literal cat memorial to remain in the living room of a listing in this economy? The shrine stays, the buyers leave, and yet YOU answer the phone every single day like some kind of emotional support hostage. This Court has seen many things but comparing 2019 Zillow listings to the current market is a war crime against real estate professionals everywhere and I WILL NOT STAND FOR IT. The defendant claims innocence but continued to accept daily abuse from a woman who overpriced her haunted cat museum by sixty thousand dollars and blamed Instagram. Judge Escrow has smelled basements before and the Court knows exactly what died down there and it wasn't just Mr. Whiskers it was your professional boundaries. The screaming-into-the-void-from-your-car defense is noted and frankly the only reasonable behavior exhibited in this entire confession. This Court needs a recess.
