Dead deals

Not quite yet. But $8000's boyfriend didn't like the apartment. Not enough character. Jeez! Lots of other drama ensued in the last couple of days but I only heard about it second hand. For now I am off that case. I have an appointment with Mr. 1 University tomorrow (he should have taken 11B over there, it was a stunning apartment. And I never think that. Incidentally, I heard that it had been rented, but not before a bidding war between some agent in my company and Phillip Seymour Hoffman--and he lost!) Anyway, I have decided that even if he does not take this apartment, this will be my last showing with him. I don't believe he will move until something changes in his living situation. I don't think it has anything at all to do with finding the perfect place. But he doesn't know that. No customer does. Anyway, I think the apartment is great. Huge and with a view of the Hudson River, Statue of Liberty, eastern city views too.

Tomorrow afternoon I am showing that $2.5 million property on Gramercy Park. My colleague told me if we close on it he'll split the commission with me, but I'll have to do some work. Shit, I'll work for $17,000.
