Century 21

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the Century 21 parking lot—a strange box wrapped in old newspaper, left overnight. No one claimed it, and when he opened it later that day, he found an antique pocket watch glowing softly with no visible source of power. The delivery driver took the watch home and showed it to his curious neighbor who happened to be an avid collector. They cleaned it together, and lo and behold—it started ticking again, but now told the wrong time! From then on, whenever anyone asked the time in Century 21 offices, they’d get a smile and a quip: ‘Ask Mr. Watch, he never lies—just ask him twice!’

2. At dawn one foggy morning, an early bird realtor spotted a mysterious figure floating through the Century 21 showroom. The ghostly figure wore an old-fashioned suit and kept whispering something about ‘the perfect deal’. The realtor, intrigued but not spooked, asked if he needed help finding a home. Turns out it was just an overcaffeinated a delivery driver who dozed off in the showroom chair.

3. While browsing Century 21’s latest listings, a regular exclaimed, ‘I found the perfect place—right next door to a talking mailbox!’ Curious, they knocked on the mailbox’s door—and out popped a delivery driver, grinning sheepishly. Turned out, it was just an old-fashioned mail slot with a clever prank attached. The regular laughed and said, ‘Guess I’ll keep looking for my dream home—but maybe without a talking mailbox!’

4. In the dimly lit hallway of Century 21, a new intern asked their mentor, 'Why does every listing here seem like it needs ghostbusting?' The mentor smiled mysteriously and whispered, ‘Because these walls have ears—and they’re listening for the perfect buyer.’ The young intern shook their head, but couldn’t help laughing as they learned that sometimes, real estate agents see things others don’t.
