Laughed at our diecast collection and kept looking at me and my TV strangely (I was watching the Orion flight). Nice and professional.

With it being a student property they market it as "LOL YOU CAN GET DRUNK HERE, SET IT UP LIKE A BAR AMIRITE."

Despite me often using my house for such purposes (there are roughly ten bottles of liquor and three beer crates in the kitchen...) their attitude made me feel like a grumpy old man. I wanted them to literally get off my lawn.

Also they touted that you can park in the back because I managed to get my car in there. Many others have failed miserably doing the same thing, and I have to climb out of the passenger door, so I really wouldn't advertise it as real parking...

Yeah, I've been on both sides. On the side where my realtor asked me to remove all pictures, religious items and personal effects from my house so as to not influence anyone thinking of buying (OH I'M SORRY I THOUGHT THIS WAS AMERICA). And on the side where I'm touring people's properties on a moment's notice, often with renters barking at the realtor for kicking them out of their own home.

So... are you renting and leaving soon? Selling?

We're just on a short (2 years) lease while were here for uni so theyre viewing for the next academic year.

When we viewed some of the places were absolutely trashed yet we always get mentions about our choice of decoration. Funny they always mention the die casts but not the Olivia Wilde poster over the fire place...

You just described my house. Hotwheels on the shelves, Orion on TV, and our house is currently for sale!

It happens. I used to have friends over and they would have anything from wide eyes to giggling fits over my roommate's collection of Spawn and X-Men and other such figurines set up in all their glory on the cabinetry.

Our die cast collection is so huge because my roommate collects too.

At the end of the day you set up your house for yourself so some people will find it strange i guess.
