Sotheby's 'Sign of the times' (www.SocketSite.com)
A tongue-in-cheek (we think) tip and chuckle from a plugged-in reader: “What does it say about the market when one of the top agents has a sign like this?”
UPDATE: According to a plugged-in tipster the agent is out front fixing the sign. Total time elapsed from our post to the agent being on site: a little over an hour.

  1. Can’t really say what it says about the market. Certainly we can infer what it says about this particular website’s editorial vision.

  2. @fluj — lighten up, it’s funny!
    As long as they chop the pillows, I’m gonna let it slide 🙂

  3. It says that the market is so hot that this poor, misunderstood agent hardly has time to do simple upkeep…

  4. But I was making a joke too! of a more sardonic bent, but a joke nonetheless. There’s truth in humor, after all.

  5. who cares, it’s just a sign. they get tagged on, messed with, blown around, kicked around, etc all the time. i’m not sure the quality of the sign makes much of a difference, especially if the agent plans on fixing it.
    here is another Sotheby’s sign with tons of graffiti on it, it’s a $4m+ lot listing that is not officially on the market, but the sign remains…

  6. Right, what do you expect for your six per cent, a sign that doesn’t look like it came off a used car lot?
    BTW, is Socketsite now allowing posters to link to their commercial sites? Let me know your ad rates, I might want in.
    [Editor’s Note: It’s a judgment call (based on whether or not the comment adds any value to the conversation), outright solicitations/spam are still junked, and it has absolutely nothing to do with advertising.]

  7. Owned by NRT. Are all real estate companies in the world owned by NRT? Or is it just the united states?
