weird statements

Couple of days back, I saw a notice in front of an house saying "For Sale by Owner". Owner thaan pa sale panna mudiyum, vera yaaravathu panna arrest pannida maataangha :-)
I am not sure, there should be a reason la. propably, sale by agency or whatever. so clarify panna apdi poadaraanghalo ennamo.

Today, I was saving the messages from the customer support in the online banking page. "Save" nu click panathum "Your message will be saved" nu oru msg box. naan udanae "pinna, delete aa aagum" :-) etho doubta solrathuku badhil, "Your message is saved" nu solalaamnu thonuchu.

Me - I mean, naan sonna statement ku thaan "For Sale by owner"..why do they include owner in that?..sorry for the confusion.

Me said...

As you said it could be to clarify that he is not an agent.

Real estate agent might get the home, improve a bit and sell it at a higher price.

The house might have been repossed because the owner might have not payed his monthly installments. So there could be a sale by these Finance companies.

..ungalukku idha pathi theriyadhu nu solliteengala...so enna venumnaalum nan isthu vidalam...;)

That is a quote by RA Heinlein and it came to my mind after reading your post about statements that are quite obvious.

There are many statements like these. look in www.dumb.com/productwarnings.htm

They need to be provided because people do stupid stuff, get hurt, then sue the company saying they did not provide a warning.

My guess is that the companies feel it is better to sound stupid with these warnings rather than actually become stupid settling the cases.

I forsale sign question was a nakkal then I am a prey illatee I am here is explanation..

anyhooo...

usually ppl hire agents to sell a house and there is commission involved..so typical such houses on a market is marked up by that commission price.

If the owner sells the house himself mark up is less and the owner would need to take care of the paper works...that y the note "Fr sale by Owner'
