Buying Under the Influence - Real Estate Agents Use Liquor to Sell Homes
Real Estate Agents Use Liquor to Sell Homes

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.

Or to boost sales, toss in your Vac condo? Your cabin in CO? Yacht? Casino membership if a "whale". Cut rates? Bundle utilities. Have Hooters Girls serve drinks Have adult au natural swim party to sell homes? (summer only). Sleepovers for potential buyers? Or Ive Sold the Home Freedom Party? FYI for those selling homes.
