Real estate humor – God bones – heaven help the MLS
Did you hear that? Yep - that was the sound of my rosary beads hitting the floor…with me close behind. The bloopers were bad enough this week that I considered joining a convent to find peace for my tortured former-English-teacher soul. Unfortunately, none would take me. There was some reference to my penchant for bacchanalia, but I’ve got nothing on these ...

Beware of wildlife inhabiting property – also, buy this house
Read the fine print There is a very special listing in Portland. It is a four bedroom, two bathroom house and is only $114,900.
