Top Five Reasons Real Estate is like “The Young and the Restless”

Number One… There’s a whole lot of screwing around going on. Because there can be a whole lot of unaccounted-for time. No one ever seems to have to be anywhere at a particular hour. Plus, people love to make double entendres around the words ‘negotiation’, ‘inspection’, and ‘offer’, which naturally leads to other activities.

Number Two… There is a lot of swapping that goes on (no, this is not the same as #1!). Someone works for one brokerage and then another and then a different one, then they go back to the first broker. Just like someone works at Newman Enterprises, then at Jabot Cosmetics, then they get into modeling, but eventually find themselves back at Newman again.

Number Three… Just when you think you’ve got that listing in the bag, a long-lost relative comes out of the woodwork and lists the house instead.

Number Four… There’s a guy who used to be the leading man, but now you only hear from him when he lists estate properties on the river. Which is actually a good thing, because he does a lot of mumbling and no one understands him anyway.

Number Five… People go to prison for bad choices. Really, they do. It’s not just a device used to advance the plotline.

Thanks to Darren Rowse for this really fun idea for a contest. I had a blast writing it!

Cari McGee

My husband and I came to the Tri-Cities in 1994, and we thought it would be a temporary stop on our way to larger cities. He was a television sports anchor at the time, and we planned to go wherever the "next step up" took us. Twenty-plus years later, we're still here and we've loved every minute of it! We have two children now, and we've found the Tri-Cities area is a wonderful place to raise a family. It's a great place to do outdoorsy things -- I like to hike Badger Mountain or run along the river path. I also love reading ... by a cozy fire in the winter or a beautiful picture window in the summer (with the A/C on!). I've been a licensed Realtor since 2004. I earned my managing broker's license in 2016, which means I can run my own brokerage, or create a team of real estate agents and supervise them, which is exactly what I did when I formed the Cari McGee Real Estate Team in 2018! We have administrative and marketing personnel, as well as additional agents to serve you. I became a director of the Tri-Cities Association of Realtors Board of Directors in 2016, became Secretary/Treasurer of the organization, and was elected to Vice President in 2019.
