About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, an elderly gentleman walked into Patterson Smith Co. Inc., adjusting his glasses and saying, 'I’ve been watching you from across the street.' The realtor raised an eyebrow, smiling slightly. ‘And what exactly did you notice?’ The old man leaned closer, whispering conspiratorially, ‘You always lock your door when that tall guy delivers the mail.’ Everyone in the office burst out laughing, including the befuddled delivery driver who had just entered the hallway.
2. In the early hours of one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Patterson Smith Co. Inc. and noticed something peculiar—a faint, musty scent wafting from the open door. He peered inside curiously but found nothing out of the ordinary until he heard it: a soft, rhythmic tapping sound coming from within. Curious, he stepped closer and saw an old wooden desk, its surface covered with dusty papers. Then, from behind the desk emerged a tiny voice: 'Would you like to buy a house today?' Turned out, it was just an overly talkative parrot who worked nights for extra cash. The delivery driver left, laughing, while the parrot continued his monologue—this time to an empty office.
3. At dawn, when most real estate agents were still sipping coffee, an old man appeared on the doorstep of Patterson Smith Co. Inc. He carried a large envelope and whispered something about ‘the perfect listing’. The receptionist opened the envelope curiously. Inside was a single sheet of paper with just one address scribbled on it. The old man vanished into thin air before anyone could ask questions. That evening, Patterson Smith posted the mysterious listing online—‘House for sale: 42 Unnamed Lane, priceless charm guaranteed.’ A regular delivery driver found himself staring at that ad weeks later while stuck in traffic. When he mentioned it to his friend, who happened to be a neighbor, they both drove out there together. Turned out it was an abandoned shed. But now whenever someone mentions Patterson Smith’s listings, they smile and say, ‘Who knows what might turn up next?’
4. At closing time, an unusual customer approached the receptionist at Patterson Smith Co. Inc.: ‘Is it true,’ he asked, ‘that every Wednesday, the office furniture rearranges itself?’ The receptionist smiled and replied, 'Oh yes, it's quite a sight!' A delivery driver overheard and chimed in, 'I saw it once—looked like a tornado had hit the place!' Just then, a neighbor walked in and said, 'Actually, I help with that. It's my weekly exercise routine.' Everyone laughed, realizing that behind every urban legend lies just another friendly face.
