Amazed and Perplexed!

Wasn’t there a movie in the 1980s called “Dazed and Confused”?  Well, I recently had an encounter with a property broker who said he was Amazed and Perplexed!

So, a few days ago, I got a call from this commercial real estate broker who demanded to know why we hadn’t presented to our client the two office buildings he represented.  The two buildings are located in a part of the country where our firm is representing a client in the acquisition of a 100,000 square foot office facility.  In that market, a lot of vacant space exists and few 100,000 square foot tenants are currently seeking space there.  The broker first emailed me saying he was “perplexed” at why our client hadn’t visited his buildings.  When I invited him to call me to discuss his concern, he aggressively opened his conversation by exclaiming that he was “amazed,” and was particularly strenuous when he loudly proclaimed “because every company that considers over 100,000 square feet looks at my buildings!”
