Marin Realtors seek divine intervention

Some Marin real estate agents are turning to a higher power amid slumping home sales.

[Oh Heaveanly]

For the masses: a virtual St. Joesph Statue - not that takes the cake!

These people are nuts.

First, why is the IJ waisting time and space with this moronic story? Second, doesn't this highlight the absolute idiocy of the real estate 'broker'?

St. Joseph statutes at $10.00 a piece?! That Executive Director at the Marin Association of Realtors is one swarmy guy - anxious to make a buck anyway he can. I wonder what St. Joseph is thinking about this scheme. Realtors don't need to waste resources and money. They can try good old prayer without the gimmick!

Being of the Jewish faith, I was very skeptical when I heard about burying St.Joseph. But my mother's condo was on the market for over a year after she passed away, and I would have done anything to help. My sister sent me a statue of St. Joseph and I buried it head down in her flower tray on her small patio. I said a little prayer (please St. Joseph, help sell my mother's condo). That was on a Thursday evening. The next morning, we received an offer which eventually lead to a sale. Call it what you may,,,,HEY......I'm a believer. It can't hurt. and by the way.......
Thank you St. Joseph!

hey Bob B, You had better bury one in your yard ASAP!

is this Bob Brutyn?

[the truth stings a bit]

Oh.. I don't even know what to say..

This is what happens when you spend over a decade literally 'stealing' from people.. Can't we be 'real' for a minute? What exactly is a broker?

Someone/anyone can take a real estate course at a community college.. I think most these 'brokers' were lured into their careers by the big '$$$'.. it's interesting now that it seems their careers may never be the same again. you can't say it wasn't a gamble!

Gee I wonder just how St.Joseph would feel about being buried head first in the ground all for the sake of the o'mighty dalla? Insulted to say the least.Wow now that's what I'd call sacralidge, and
I'm not even a catholic.

This is funny as hel*!

Maybe Bob Brutyn got a St. Josephs for Fathers Day and hopefully he has already buried it head first in his yard.

This really is funny! What a thing to spend $10.00 on.
