CONFESSION #0426 — THE BUYER WHO NEVER BOUGHT
Monday, April 6, 2026
The title search flagged something. An old easement from 1987 that nobody disclosed, runs right through where the buyer wanted to put a pool, and I thought okay we can work with this, but then she started asking questions about the easement like whether the utility company had ever actually used it (they hadn't, not in 30 years) and whether that meant it was abandoned (it doesn't, that's not how easements work) and then she wanted her lawyer to look at it which fine, but her lawyer took three weeks and came back with more questions, and during those three weeks she toured 11 other houses with me, made offers on two of them, lost both, and then circled back to the original house except now the sellers had accepted another offer because we'd been in attorney review for 22 days over an easement that a landscaper could route around in an afternoon. The house sold for $412,000. She's still looking. We've been working together for 14 months now and she's made six offers total, lost all of them, and last week she texted me asking if I thought she was being too picky and I just (I didn't respond for two hours because I had to think about how to phrase it) said no you're being thorough.

⚖️ Presiding
GUILTY OF CRIMINAL ENABLEMENT OF PARALYSIS-BY-ANALYSIS IN THE FIRST DEGREE WITH AGGRAVATED DIPLOMATIC COWARDICE
The Court has reviewed this confession and frankly Reginald needs a moment because THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO MY COUSIN MAUREEN except she was the buyer and her agent finally told her the truth and she cried for six hours but she OWNS A HOME NOW. You watched this woman torpedo a $412,000 property over an easement that utility workers have not touched since Ronald Reagan was discussing trickle-down economics, and when she asked if she was being too picky you took TWO HOURS to craft the word "thorough" like you were drafting the Treaty of Versailles. Fourteen months! SIX FAILED OFFERS! This woman has toured enough properties to qualify for a real estate license herself and you are out here enabling her descent into permanent renter status because you cannot bring yourself to say "Sharon the easement is FINE and your lawyer is billing you hourly to ask questions that do not matter." The Court cites Zillow v. Spineless Representation (2019) which clearly established that an agent who watches a client self-sabotage without intervention is not a fiduciary but a HOSTAGE. You are not being kind, you are being complicit, and somewhere a landscaper is laughing because he could have solved this in forty-five minutes with a garden hose redirect. The gavel has spoken and Reginald must now go call his cousin.
SCANDAL RATING: 6.7/10 Weaponized Patience
