Here are our most bizarre, spookiest stories from working in real estate.

People always ask us, “What are your craziest real estate stories?” In real estate, you get to meet tons of different people with interesting lives, so we understand your curiosity. Today, we’ll each go over our most bizarre story. 

Evette knew a photographer who was taking pictures of a house for a listing. There was a rocking chair in the middle of a room he was photographing, so he went over to move it. As he approaches, the rocking chair moved on its own. At this point, he’s pretty spooked, so he takes a photo of the room with the rocking chair to see if the photos will reveal anything.

“I was there alone when a man walked in and demanded, ‘Show me where the murder took place!’”

When his team was processing the photos, he asked to see the picture of the rocking chair. Except no one had seen his picture, and it was never found.

For Tyler, the craziest story happened when he was showing some buyers a house. He was there alone when a man walked in and demanded, “Show me where the murder took place!” Of course, Tyler had no idea about a murder. Turns out, the man was a prosecutor for the county, and while he was doing research, he found out there was a murder in the house a few years back. 

This hadn’t happened to the current family, but it was pretty creepy to think the house Tyler had innocently been setting up had been home to a murder. In the end, his buyers decided not to write an offer on the house.
