Andrea Madison Romero of Phoenix, AZ isn’t your typical Realtor. Yes, she does show and sell homes, like any other Realtor, but she also possesses a skill that sets her apart — she can sing! Even more impressive? Her lyrics are hilarious!
“It was for a grand opening of one of my brokerage’s new office locations,” she told us. “I was having a challenge with a loan and thought my buyer was going to back out. I had ‘Shake it Off’ stuck in my head and rewrote the chorus.. and then just thought it would be funny to do the whole song.”
Kudos, Andrea! The real estate community gives you a collective standing ovation. Video footage courtesy of Serena Pell.

I stay up too late
So many contracts on my plate
We’re gonna miss a closing date
Uh huh
Miss a closing date
We’ve got trouble with the loan
And clients blowin’ up my phone
And my kids are home alone
Uh huh
My kids are home alone
But I keep going
Showing after showing
To keep this business growing
I’ll be fine, I just don’t wanna lose my mind
‘Cause the lender’s gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake
And the buyer’s gonna flake, flake, flake, flake, flake
I just wanna take, take, take, take, take
One day off, one day off!
‘Cause the seller’s gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
The closing might be late, late, late, late, late
I just wanna take, take, take, take, take
One day off, one day off!
My key won’t work again (ahh!)
How am I gonna get in?
A doggie door or climb the fence?
I don’t wanna climb the fence
These buyers can’t make up their minds
Don’t want to show it one more time
That is unless they’re gonna buy
Mmhmm, and I know they’re gonna buy
So I keep going
Closing after closing
To keep this business growing
I’ll be fine, I just hope I don’t lose my mind
‘Cause the lender’s gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake
And the buyer’s gonna flake, flake, flake, flake, flake
I just wanna take, take, take, take, take
One day off, one day off!
‘Cause the seller’s gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
The closing might be late, late, late, late, late
I just wanna take, take, take, take, take
One day off, one day off!
Sing it with me
One day off, one day off
I want one day off, one day off
I want one day off, one day off
I want one day off, one day off
Hey, just think, while you’ve been watching Bravo and HGTV
With their million dollar listings
We’re out here on the streets for real
And my clients open credit cards right before we close
I just need a break
And to the sellers over there priced hella unfair
I say come on bring it down, I need a break
