ROFLMAO!!!

A few weeks ago I pulled into the driveway of a run down house in the hood for an interior. Just as I shut off the engine, this urban youth runs right in front of my car and freezes. I look over, and two cops have drawn on him and are ordering him to his knees.

If I had been there 30 seconds earlier I would have been right in the thick of things.

Wow! Scary stories. Next time I will be much more careful & take down the tags.

I used to just go right up to the door,open the lockbox and go in. Duh. Now, I walk around the exterior, checking all doors and windows, and if anything is unsecure, I do not enter. I call the police radio room, tell them I am an agent and they show up really quick. Doesn't matter how bad the area is. Last time, it was a duplex, the cops showed up, opened the door and with what only can be described as "the biggest @*!# rifles" I have every seen, yelled into to the open door "POLICE - if you are in there, sound off, guns in the house". They stayed while I took my pictures. I have never felt so safe.... I never enter an unsecured property. If I do not have time for the cops, I report it to the company that sent me out there, and tell them that I need an extension until the property is secure. I have never had anyone object to the extension. In fact, I have gotten calls telling me that they are glad I did not enter. I do not carry a gun - but I am seriously thinking about getting my permit - its getting really bad out there.

LOL..................I would like to do that for a couple of clients that what to look at every house.

I went into a property this winter. It was a cold day. I went in and started taking pics and I noticed a steaming Cup-O-Soup and a full 40 oz of beer on the counter. This house had been on the market for months, had no utilities and there was no conveince store around to heat up a Ramon Noodle. I heard foot steps upstairs, I got the heck out of there.

Seriously, I really did laugh out LOUD! Thanks for the funny.
