The Funniest Real Estate Humor

By Kevin Ierardi


Property market is sometimes slow and boring. The mood for buyers, sellers and agents is lifted by the availability of the best real estate humor alongside the properties on offer in the market. The pun offered on these sites is unexpected and very hilarious. The comic part is in twisting bill boards, criticizing decisions and procedures when selling houses or the information provided about a property.

The websites proving such fun allow those searching for property to chuckle, chortle, guffaw, giggle and laugh as they buy, sell or let. The updates are on daily basis or as regular as possible. The pun delivered through such jokes lightens the mood especially when the search is tiresome. It offers comic relief to those working in the industry by lifting the gloom that hovers over a slow market.

The market offers an opportunity for humorists to reveal the irony on every minute in the industry. A story is told of an agent who put such an attractive advert for a house that the seller decided to keep it. The wit in such a statement presents a dilemma as agents seek to get it right without losing. It is a funny look at how properties are advertised.

The descriptions given about neighborhoods, compounds and pets are meant to justify the high prices. The trick sometimes backfires when the client is on a tour to view the home. Real estate jokes have also focused on the reason houses are sold with a query on the pricing of old and run down houses. The information given on adverts is would make the buyer wonder why the seller is parting with the property if it is that good.

Real estate humor relies on pricing and cartoon characters have been developed with this concept in mind. The prices quoted make the buyer wonder if the decimal is placed at the wrong place. Some of the homes stated on the sites can only be found on fantasy land.

Technology is used to add humor where an animal like a lizard is superimposed on a sign written TO LET and turns it in to TOILET. Another funny caption is where a woman complains about lack of apps for cooking, cleaning the house and laundry yet there are apps for practically anything else. This is the funny side of the property market.

There is variety in real estate humor and the trick has been effective in capturing visitors for the agents. Visitors looking for property are attracted to stay longer within the site and therefore can see more of what is on offer. Incorporation of images, graphics and photos provides diversity.
