Well, this pissed me off to no end.

My car is in perfect street trim. Stock wheels, ride height, interior, etc....

So I tell you that to tell you this. I am trying to sell my house in this marvelous market. While I was out of town, the brick hibernated in the garage.

I found out that a friend of mine had some friends come through the house with their realtor. When they opened the garage door, they asked the agent "what's with the black car?" - the agent replied "that's just a white trash low-rider.".


Just when I had finally buried my strong desire to kill a human, this ass-hat had to go and say something like that. So I am going to get the realtors name, give him a call and ban him from showing the house. Then I will somehow find myself eating at a restaurant where he and his wife are. I will then have my wife ask me "what's with the lady at that table?" to which I will reply "oh, that's just a low-rent gold digging boat-whore."

I am agitated. just slightly.
 
What kills me more than the car being targeted, is now the agent has an opinion of the seller that may hamper a sale.

Get the legal ready, this may be fun.
 
Here's a better idea: if/when you run into these idiots at dinner, walk up to them and fart over their entrees.....
 
Uhhh to give you my honest opinion you're a little too sensitive about a freaking CAR. He makes a sarcastic comment about a car, you're online talking about a "strong desire to kill a human", and he's the bad guy? Get over it, he didn't drop to his knees in front of them and drool all over your car. Write it in your diary and move on.
 
Though it's really unprofessional for a realtor to say anything negative while selling your home while making a comment which would mean you're white trash, you have to just let it pass. I'd call them on being unpro and ditch them from selling your home, that's better revenge. :wink:
 
I had two different people offer me more than list for my house to throw in the car. I had signs in the garage saying "Please do not touch the car" and "Car is not for sale"

I came home after one showing and there were fingerprints all over the window and door from someone looking inside. I had my agent forbid the showing agent from showing my house again. I then filed a complaint with the showing agents office to make sure they got the point.

The best bet is to move the car elsewhere during the whole process.

I will concur that the relator mentioning "white trash" about someone's car is unprofessional. Doesn't matter if said guy liked it or not, it was a derogatory comment coming from someone who is supposed to hold higher standards. I agree fire him and get someone else. Maybe take him around the block in the car and show him no white trash can afford this. Or even better let him get behind you at a stop light and do a burnout in front of him...let him eat your smoke. :biggrin:

I agree, at no time during the purchase of or sale of a house should race ever,ever come up. It just doesn't happen, ever. There are laws that protect the buyer and seller from discrimination. At least make sure your local realty board is made aware of this bad showing. They will not be nice to this person.
 
Be the bigger person and move forward on this. Don't let him draw you into anything. His comment probably results from jealousy.
 
I could care less about the car. It's the comment possibly directed at its owner and occupants of the house that ripples my nipples.

This is a realtor for the interested party, not mine. My guy is top notch.
I have decided to let it go. But if it happens again I won't stand by and let my character have darts thrown at it without rebut.

Here's a nice house owned by a caring and nice family.

Here is a nice house owned by some white trash couple.

Which one would you buy?
 
Just think about it,they probably looked for a old speaker magnet and rubbed your car down with it looking for bondo,starting tapping all over it looking for body work,kicked the tires some,went threw the inside glove box and all the rest of your stuff inside,probably started it and right away starting reving it up really hi looking for engine noise,popped the hood and then closed it slightly and finished it with the double hand hard push leaving dents in your front of your hood..

Probably low balled the seller on your house knowing white trash owned it and needed a fix,probably offered the realator $500 for the low rider and used your toothbrush for toilet paper when they found out white trash lived there..

Id be pretty mad too,HTH...
 
I would find out what realty co. he works for ask to speak with his manager, get the regional dir/sales mngr number as well. and inform them of just what type of A-HOLE!!! they have working for them, what he basicly did is call you and your family white trash,--"that's just a white trash low-rider.". -- i would make sure he never even looks at your paper work! i know this may be wrong but I would try to get him fired, here you are allowing him to the oppertunity
to make a living by selling a house that has been a home to you and your family, and he's thinking of you as white trash :mad: ,

the guys pure garbage, if they don't do anything i would e-mail the newspapers they love that kind of stuff.
 
I say get his name and email and post it here, I'll send him a pic of my white trash ass standing in front of my car flipping him off
