Good to have you guys here with us today. Shannon, you went out looking at houses yesterday. You kind of surprised us with that. Are you thinking of moving?

00:02:30 - 00:02:34 | Speaker 2:

Mm-mm. I mean, yes and no. So we're not thinking about moving.

00:02:34 - 00:02:37 | Speaker 6:

You're just one of those nosy people who wants to see what other people's homes look like?

00:02:37 - 00:04:25 | Speaker 2:

Mm-mm. So when my husband and my stepkids moved in a couple of months ago, like our house is great, But there are definitely those wish list items that now that we've lived together for a couple of months, we're like, oh, it would be really nice to have X, Y, and Z. And there are also certain houses in my neighborhood area that I've always said if they came up on the market, I want to go look at them. And so one of those came up randomly yesterday morning, and my friend is a realtor. And so we said, okay, we're open to it. We're open to moving. This house checks all of the boxes. It would be a really good fit for us. It's affordable. It's in our price range. And so we're like, let's do this. If it works, it works. And that would be awesome and kind of a surprise. So yesterday afternoon, Wes and I went and met my friend, the realtor, and we walked through this home, which I haven't done in a really long time, by the way, so it's kind of weird. But as Wes and I were talking about the house and the positives and negatives and also just like catching up with my friend that I haven't seen in forever and ever, she, all of a sudden looked at me and she was like, like doing the shushing, like the finger over the mouth. and she pointed to all the different cameras that this family had from the ring cam when we walked in and like every room seemed to have like you know something in it and she's like a lot of times like you have to be really careful because they want to hear either what you have to say about the house good or bad you know and they'll use that in the end for negotiation power or and in this case, we were talking about some personal stuff, you know, so I got shushed while walking

00:04:25 - 00:04:30 | Speaker 6:

through the house. What were you guys talking about? What personal stuff? Uh, well, that's

00:04:30 - 00:04:44 | Speaker 2:

personal. Come on. Like you guys talking like, wouldn't this be a great place to? No, I'm talking about personal stuff happening in our lives with my friend. Oh, okay. Okay. Nowadays, it's not fun

00:04:44 - 00:04:59 | Speaker 6:

to look at homes that are for sale because of technology has made it that way. For sure. It It used to be that the only way that you could get away with it or catch people doing this was baby monitors. Because I remember when we sold our first house is when Jacob was a baby.

00:05:00 - 00:05:10 | Speaker 3:

and we had the baby monitor set up and then took the other end of the baby monitor with us and then went to the neighbor's house while the people were walking around the house and you could hear them when they would talk in the baby's room.

00:05:10 - 00:05:28 | Speaker 2:

Yeah. And I was brutally honest too as we walked into this house, like talking to Wes, I'm like, damn, these people have a lot of stuff. They cram into their closets and it smells funky in here. And he was like, shut up. Stop saying those things out loud.

00:05:28 - 00:06:20 | Speaker 3:

You know what you should do? You should go through the house knowing that they're possibly listening to you and then lay little eggs to them of what it is that could possibly make them more, I don't know, aggressive sellers, you know, or like wanting to sell, like say, basically say, oh, man, I'll tell you what, they're going to have a hard time selling this house. you know what I mean like stuff like that but I'll tell you what I you know maybe we can just put an offer in and blah blah and do this like lay the little things down to see if they if they do hear you yeah and how that goes yeah yeah um I you know it's it is wild though you cannot talk at all about it which kind of sucks it's should should they be able to or should they have to tell you that they're listening in on you I think so that's a really good yeah I don't yeah I don't

00:06:20 - 00:06:27 | Speaker 4:

Did your realtor friend know that they were listening beforehand, or did they just recognize the cameras?

00:06:27 - 00:06:30 | Speaker 2:

But right off the bat, she was like, you know, she pointed to the, she was like, wait, damn.

00:06:30 - 00:06:33 | Speaker 3:

Yeah. You know? She's just assuming that.

00:06:33 - 00:06:33 | Speaker 2:

For sure.

00:06:33 - 00:06:34 | Speaker 3:

That they're doing, yeah.

00:06:34 - 00:06:50 | Speaker 2:

And I guess, to be fair, if there were people walking through my house, I guess I would be nosy and want to know what they were saying. But I also feel like I would be so super offended with all of the things that they found wrong with it, because I'd be like, you know, I chose that pain. I'm not selling it, him. F you.

00:06:50 - 00:06:53 | Speaker 3:

What do you think? Do you guys think that this would be a house that you'd want to buy?

00:06:53 - 00:07:14 | Speaker 2:

We passed on it this morning just because it actually was an awesome house and it was in an awesome location that was kind of like a dream for us, but it just required a lot of work. Yeah. And Wes is like, in this season of our lives, we cannot, one, afford to or have the time to put in all of the work that it needed.

00:07:14 - 00:07:20 | Speaker 3:

Don't you think homes are way overpriced right now too? Everybody's homes are just nuts.

00:07:20 - 00:07:27 | Speaker 2:

Yeah, and actually, this one wasn't that much overpriced. It was priced because I think they knew that there was a lot of work to be done on it. Okay. You know.

00:07:28 - 00:08:14 | Speaker 3:

844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548. Are any listeners, those that have listened in and heard people talk about them? Or do we have any real estate people that are listening that have actually gotten busted doing this? Or their clients got busted talking about something as they were walking through the houses? 844 Mojo Live those ring cams by the way it seems like everybody has them right yeah like I've had it before where I've because I have ring cams out on my garage and so I got one that points at my front door and I got another one that points at the garage and I can hear two on those there are times where Chelsea will be on the phone and she'll go outside to have a private conversation and I'll just sit there and listen the entire

00:08:14 - 00:08:57 | Speaker 2:

time see psychotic No, do you know what's so funny, Mojo? So I do therapy every other Wednesday. And I'm lazy now. And ever since COVID, I do it through telehealth in my house. I don't go into my, I call her my Karen, my Karen's office anymore just because it's so much easier for me and saves me time. And I realized this past Wednesday when I was doing my appointment that there is a dang camera like right there that Wes has pointed so that you can see our entire front porch. I'm like, he could just be sitting there and listening to my entire therapy session for all I know. All the stuff that I talk about him, he probably knows. He knows everything. So he is like armed and ready for any sort of discussion that we're about to have.

00:08:58 - 00:09:04 | Speaker 3:

Hey, Renee the Realtor is on the phone with us right now. What's up, Realtor Renee? How are you?

00:09:05 - 00:09:06 | Speaker 1:

I'm good. How are you?

00:09:06 - 00:09:14 | Speaker 3:

Good. You guys say that 10 times fast. That'd be kind of tough. Do you have that listed on your, you know, sign that you put out in front of people's homes?

00:09:14 - 00:09:23 | Speaker 1:

It's actually on my Zoom for when I'm on the camera. So, yes, Realtor Renee, real estate, real life, sold by Renee, all the things.

00:09:23 - 00:09:29 | Speaker 3:

I like it. What's going on? Do you have people that are listening on your guys walking around the houses?

00:09:30 - 00:09:59 | Speaker 1:

Yes. I warn all of my clients because it is a ethical violation. You're supposed to say in the listing ticket that you're being monitored, even as far as, like, when you do your home inspection. So you put an offering, you want to buy the house, but you're having the guy check it out. So, like, if you wanted to bump up your repairs, but they're listening to the inspection, you can't do that. So I've unplugged them before because you're supposed to tell me. Interesting.

00:10:00 - 00:10:12 | Speaker 3:

No, that's actually very interesting to know that you have to actually make it known or they can't do it. I mean, I think that it's kind of seems like a violation of privacy, right?

00:10:13 - 00:10:22 | Speaker 4:

Right. I mean, obviously on a show like Trading Spaces, they did it because they knew. But, yeah, it hurts your negotiation skills. It's just a problem.

00:10:23 - 00:10:37 | Speaker 3:

I have a quick question for you. How often do you see this happen where somebody's home goes up for sale in a neighborhood or on a person's street and their nosy neighbors just want to go through the house just to see what the homes look like?

00:10:38 - 00:10:54 | Speaker 4:

So I do a lot of open houses on the weekends and yeah, 10% of my visitors will be somebody in the neighborhood who wants to see what the house, what they did to it, what it's selling for, or they're checking me out to see, you know, how I did my business.

00:10:54 - 00:11:26 | Speaker 3:

yeah yeah yeah um i love this texter that text in 231 it says coming from the people who do wore the roses and eavesdrop on people's conversations you don't want your conversations eavesdropped on that's actually pretty good that is uh that is really good thanks for the call renee we appreciate you um 844 mojo live 844-665-6548 text is 95500 do you shannon want to stay in the same neighborhood or are you kind of like looking somewhere kind of like in the

00:11:26 - 00:11:40 | Speaker 1:

vicinity yeah in the vicinity because it is really i i love where i live um it's close to the kids school you know it's it's close to their dad which makes things a ton easier so yeah question for you

00:11:40 - 00:11:50 | Speaker 2:

since we're talking about it i know karen is about to graduate soon and go off to college that's my stepson who's a senior yeah yeah like when you're looking for a home you look at like with him in

00:11:50 - 00:11:59 | Speaker 1:

mind of staying there yes okay yeah we always want a space for him for when he comes home yeah that's cool we don't want to be like you're on the couch now because you want to go to college

00:11:59 - 00:12:19 | Speaker 3:

that's the thing with chelsea and i trying to downsize or thinking about that she keeps thinking that the kids will feel like they're not loved if we sell our house and there's no place for them if they come back home and visit and i'm like luke's the only one that we got to care about because he's just still in college. The other two, who cares? You know what I mean?

00:12:20 - 00:12:21 | Speaker 2:

How old do you stop caring?

00:12:22 - 00:12:53 | Speaker 3:

I stop caring once they're off my insurance plan. You know what I mean? Like, no offense, but offense. I mean, seriously. Like, at some point, it's like, what are we going to do, you know? Yeah. And I keep thinking about that. The other one, too, is, and I used to think that, like, Shannon would be, or a person like Shannon is crazy when they wanted to stay in the same neighborhood. but chels brought something up the other day and she's like well maybe we move here and i'm like i'm so routined on where i go in in my neighborhood i've lived in in my neighborhood

00:12:53 - 00:13:00 | Speaker 2:

for 25 years yeah you know yeah all your people are there that's what you know it's like i have

00:13:00 - 00:13:23 | Speaker 3:

everything there you know that i i know my i know everything i you know do as far as takeouts concerned i know everything i do as far as you know the the uh i don't know drugstore or grocery store, like all the people and stuff, I don't want to have to sit there and pick up and go to a completely different area of town. It's like going away somewhere on a vacation then. You feel like you're completely new all the time.

00:13:23 - 00:13:25 | Speaker 2:

What does Chelsea say about it?

00:13:26 - 00:13:39 | Speaker 3:

Chelsea, honestly, it's funny. I keep thinking that Chelsea doesn't want to sell the house, but then she'll get little things where she'll say we should sell the house. I've said to Chelsea, I said, why don't we just do this? Why don't we just have Shannon's whole family move in with us?

00:13:40 - 00:13:44 | Speaker 1:

We could trade. You know, we had that. That would solve a lot of my issues.

00:13:44 - 00:13:50 | Speaker 3:

Do you remember when Britt and John, across the street, our neighbors across the street, and Brooke moved in with us while their home was getting...

00:13:50 - 00:13:51 | Speaker 1:

Oh, yeah. Yep.

00:13:51 - 00:14:11 | Speaker 3:

They had some floors that were getting redone. Yep. So they lived with us. It was kind of fun. And I told Chelsea, I go, what if we did, like, one of those bed and breakfasts? Could you imagine? Like, randomly just, like, rent out a room to people? It'd be great show content. Yeah, exactly. That's it. Is it Justin?

00:14:12 - 00:14:47 | Speaker 5:

or Justine, Justine, what's up Justine? Um, so me and my husband just recently sold our home back in, um, February. Um, and we did this, we listened in through our blink system, um, when people would come and check out the house and we would use the front door camera to gauge how long they were in the house. And if that was going to give us like an idea of, Oh, they spent like 15 minutes in the house or one couple spent like literally five minutes from the time that the door open to the time that it closed and um we were like yeah they're not gonna put an offer in for

00:14:47 - 00:14:52 | Speaker 1:

sure did you ever get offended by anything you overheard them say about your house um a couple

00:14:52 - 00:15:14 | Speaker 5:

of times we would but we kind of knew um that it was listen she's trying to grab that kid crying what do they want um he's yeah it was just kind of based on personal opinion because we did the same thing when we looked at houses to buy so we weren't offended if nobody liked what we did but like if somebody was like oh well this house isn't big enough and we were like then why did

00:15:14 - 00:15:19 | Speaker 2:

you even look at it like why did you waste why are we why are we not in our house right now

00:15:19 - 00:15:38 | Speaker 5:

and you're there looking at it exactly but i mean it kind of helped us out but we really mainly used the front door camera for like if they showed up and then it was like okay they were here for this amount of time and we had one that we clocked it they were in our house for four minutes and i was like there's no way that you looked through the whole house in four minutes like that's impossible

00:15:38 - 00:15:46 | Speaker 2:

at that point they you knew that the front door as soon as they walked into the entryway they go they didn't like the carpeting or something in that house so they're out of there four minutes

00:15:46 - 00:16:05 | Speaker 5:

something was off and we were like well we don't but our realtor knew she knew we would joke with her we're like oh my gosh we watched him walking on the camera and walk right out and she's like oh my gosh you guys are watching we're like yeah so she knew that we were watching so i mean she never seemed upset she never told anybody but she was aware thanks for the call i appreciate it uh

00:16:05 - 00:16:14 | Speaker 2:

what's that is this alexa on the phone hi alexa yeah what's going on so um my husband and i before

00:16:14 - 00:17:00 | Speaker 4:

we were married we were going through houses and we would bring our parents with us just to make sure that we you know we're getting the right deal looking at the right houses you know that type of thing right um and one of the houses that we went through we didn't realize that there was cameras there until we were having trouble opening one of the doors and the owner started talking to us from the camera and we couldn't even find out like where the camera was they're all like looking at you like where is that coming from and he's like oh you open it like this sorry it's kind of sticky that is so creepy isn't it so we were like oh my gosh we did the same thing as shannon we're like oh, my God, these people have so much crap in their posits. We're like, what did they hear us say now? Because he was literally watching us as we walked through the entire place.

00:17:00 - 00:17:15 | Speaker 2:

By the way, if you don't think when you Airbnb a home that people look at you through their cameras, I guarantee you they're looking at you. They may not be looking at you in the bathroom or in the bedroom or anything like that, but they're looking at you and seeing what kind of people are renting their homes.

00:17:16 - 00:17:18 | Speaker 4:

Yeah, very scary times.

00:17:19 - 00:17:24 | Speaker 2:
