A local Real Estate Agent has put her intellectual prowess on full display today by using a relatively uncommon word in conversation.
The Residential Leasing Agent at Ray Hooker in Betoota’s CBD dropped the word ‘hence’ into the conversation while taking a couple through a house inspection.
Alice Woodburn (32) was walking some potential tenants through a reasonably large 3 bedder in the Golf Course Estate on the outskirts of town, when she thought she might put on a little bit of vocal razzmatazz so to speak.
“So, you’ll see here that the master bedroom has a really nice ensuite, hence the asking price of $450 a week from the owners,” she said today.
We asked Woodburn why she decided to lay it on the couple looking for a place.
“I sorta (sic) like to throw words in like that during walkthroughs, just to show that I’m not your run of the mill Real Estate Agent you know,” she said.
“Not just someone who opens doors for commission.”
Woodburn than explained that it doesn’t stop with just hence.
“Therefore, whilst, accordingly.”
“Those are a couple of other words I like to regale potential tenants with,” Woodburn said.
Workman then told us she was ‘absolutely flat out at the moment’ and had to get back to the office and ‘get her nose to the grindstone (sic).’
