House hunt

One thing you never want to hear your real estate agent utter upon opening the door to a house he's showing you is "well, that's pretty weird." What is also pretty weird is when people refuse to leave the house while it's being shown. Is the fat guy on the couch negotiable? We'd like to see the second floor bathroom but, there seems to be someone taking a shower. Really, don't go to any trouble, you're only trying to convince us to give you a few hundred thousand dollars for your house after all.
