Buying Real estate under the influence
December 12, 2008 · 1 Comment
I found an interesting trend in getting buyers to purchase real estate in today’s down real estate market. It’s from www.trendhunter.com

When it comes to real estate, it’s a buyers market out there. Homeowners are giving away 50-inch plasma televisions, $20,000 cash-rebates, $500 gasoline cards, and even the cars in their garages. Sellers will try just about anything to unload that second mortgage–including getting you drunk.
Stories are starting to circulate about real estate agents providing alcohol to potential buyers. It’s been coined as a BUI, or buying under the influence. Only this time, when you wake up, you’ll have much more than a headache.
