CONFESSION #0390 — SELLER MELTDOWN
Tuesday, March 24, 2026
Monday morning the seller texts me a photo of the neighbor's trash cans and asks if we should disclose this as a "condition of the neighborhood" Tuesday she calls crying because someone on Zillow said the kitchen looks dated and she wants to know if we can sue for defamation Wednesday her husband emails me a four page letter about comparable sales that he found on Redfin with sentences highlighted in yellow and questions like "why aren't we priced at THIS" about a house that sold in 2021 with a pool we don't have Thursday she fires me Friday she rehires me but only if I agree to attend the next showing "just to observe how people react to the energy of the space" which I cannot even address Saturday we get a full price offer Sunday she rejects it because the buyer's agent used the wrong font in the cover letter and she says that shows "a lack of attention to detail that will probably carry through to closing" The house is still on the market

⚖️ Presiding
GUILTY OF AGGRAVATED CLIENT TOLERANCE IN THE FIRST DEGREE WITH COMPOUNDING WEEKLY TRAUMA
The Court has reviewed this confession and frankly, The Court needs a moment because Reginald just felt his blood pressure spike reading about the TRASH CAN DISCLOSURE INQUIRY. Let us be abundantly clear: this agent has endured what can only be described as a seven-day psychological gauntlet that would have broken lesser professionals, and yet here they stand, still representing a woman who rejected a FULL PRICE OFFER over FONT SELECTION. The Court cites the landmark decision in Comic Sans v. Basic Human Dignity, 2019, wherein it was established that no serif-related grievance constitutes grounds for contract rejection. Furthermore, this seller's husband and his highlighted Redfin comparables remind The Court of my own brother-in-law who once brought a laminated spreadsheet to Thanksgiving to prove the turkey was overcooked, and I have not spoken to him since, NOR SHOULD I HAVE TO. The energy of the space, she says? THE ENERGY? The only energy in that space is the collective exhaustion of every showing agent who has walked through wondering why this kitchen that is APPARENTLY DATED still has no offer because someone used Times New Roman instead of Garamond. This agent is guilty not of wrongdoing but of possessing a patience that borders on clinical, and The Court must now adjourn because Order the Roomba has begun circling in a pattern that suggests even IT finds this seller unreasonable.
SCANDAL RATING: 7.4/10 Font-Based Sabotage
