"Off the Wall" Realtor Pranks Client

It's the Christmas season and everywhere people are wrapping presents big and small. Some are bigger than others, a lot bigger. After days of writing about personal debt warnings and real estate bubbles, I just couldn't resist sharing this article that I came across this morning.

It seems that a self proclaimed "off the wall" real estate agent in Oshawa, Ontario decided to gift wrap a client's new house for them, just in time for Christmas. The agent used gold and silver wrapping paper and wrapped the house in red ribbon fashioned out of plastic tablecloths.

With mortgage rates at historically low levels, the realty market is very competitive and this agent claims to include fun in his list of offered services. It's a great prank, but who has to clean it all up?
