Cigarettes and Scratch tickets are sold together at every convenience store in America. Because people want them. They want them both at the same time. Buying a one in two chance of painful death by cancer, and, a one in a 27 kabillion chance of making some unearned cash.
Why? Because people think they’re lucky.
Here’s the thing; people aren’t. When you do stupid stuff, generally, your life sucks. How does this relate to apartment hunting? Well, people trust what they see on the web. I’ll mention again, the agency website where every listing was updated at 9:00 am that morning. Every single one. Now, if you search for a few places, and you see the fake time stamp, you think, “WHEW! Lucky me, the one I want was JUST UPDATED!—I”m gonna give these guys a call RIGHT NOW!”
They paw through the rummage sale at Craigslist, until they notice that they are seeing the same units over and over again, with slightly different photos; or the same photo, and they shrug and give someone a call.
We’re here to tell you you can do better. A martial arts or exercise class is a better investment than the coffin nails and the scratch tickets. You’ll feel better if you go that way. And you should start, and end, your apartment search at www.onmarketboston.com, where the listings are real. We understand you might want to step out, check out other sites, but come back to us before making your call, after you figure out that the whole system makes as much sense as the scratch tickets and the cigarettes.
We’re giving away the truth at OMB. And you are special. You’re reading this. You’re smart. You can figure this stuff out. We can help.
Be awake. Be here now. Live where you want to. It’s up to you.
