Q: Has a buyer ever thrown a curveball at a deal, making a request that almost derailed the sale? Frances Katzen, broker and head of the Katzen Team, Douglas Elliman Real Estate, New York CityI had a buyer who was adamant about having a very quiet apartment. He was a nice guy, very smart, but he had an issue with noise. He didn’t want to have any kind of impact from the city once he stepped into his home.
Q: Have you ever had a listing that looked great but smelled bad? Julia Boland, associate real-estate broker, principal of the Boland Team at the Corcoran Group, New York CityThe owner was a friend of mine, but I had no idea she had a pig. She had a beautiful condominium on the Upper East Side: a three-bedroom duplex. The second bedroom, which had its own balcony, was Milly’s room. Milly was a 190-pound Berkshire pig, white with black spots.
Estate sales are usually complicated, with families and lawyers, but I’ve never experienced anything like this. Basically, the title company wouldn’t clear us to close because they couldn’t find the death certificates of the owners’ deceased grandparents. They had died in the 1960s, and in a very typically Brooklyn-Italian situation, the son had inherited the house. When the son and his wife died, that’s when the children put the house on the market. We had the death certificates of the sellers’ parents, but they weren’t on the title.
Q: Have you ever gotten locked in a home with potential buyers during a showing? Chris Toland, associate real-estate broker, The Agency in New York CityI was with buyers at a new development in Brooklyn that was having an open house. I think the open house ended at 4 p.m. and we got there at 3:45. It was a fairly small building, like 12 or 15 units. We spoke to a sales agent, took our tour, saw the model apartment.
