Ever work with a buyer who thinks they’re starring in their own episode of House Hunters? You know the type: they show up with a dream list, a champagne taste, and a “we’ll only look at three homes” mindset. Let’s talk about what happens when HGTV meets reality.
• Narrow Focus: Some buyers think they’ll pick between exactly three homes. Anything more? Too overwhelming.
• Unrealistic Expectations: “We want granite countertops, hardwood floors, a fenced yard, and a pool… on a $250K budget.” Bless it.
• Reality Check: In real life, you don’t get a dramatic reveal—you get inspections, negotiations, and trade-offs.
✨ House hunting in Auburn and Opelika doesn’t come with a camera crew—but it does come with one heck of a REALTOR® who’ll keep you grounded and get you into the right home.
What’s the most unrealistic expectation you’ve ever heard from a buyer? Drop it in the comments—I could write a book.
