    This is great. Absolutely funny. It appears that Walmart Sucks also.

  2. Toku Nguyen Says:

    OK but does this have anything to do with Real Estate 2.0? Show me some news?!!!

  3. Matt Carter Says:

    So uh, you weren’t at all disappointed that those domain names were taken, were you?

  4. real estate 2.x Says:

    LOL

  5. Greg Says:

    Great Post- I just bought blueroofsucks.com- Hey, there are a lot of traditional brokerages out there that don’t like my model. And if anyone is going to talk about how much I suck, it’s going to be me, dammit!

  6. People Love BlueRoof! (or hate us) « BlueRoof.com Blog Says:

    [...] I was reading Inman Blog and came across a post from Tuesday (no linkbacks) that mentioned this post from Real Estate 2.X which talks about how companies are buying the domain names of their company with the word “sucks” after it so people can’t buy that domain name. So, of course, I went and bought http://www.blueroofsucks.com because, like I mentioned on RE 2.X, if anyone’s going to talk about how much I suck, it’s going to be me. And then in my emal this morning Mike (our prez) sent me this photo, which I actually like quite a bit (ahem…) [...]

    Love the post. It sure doesn’t suck :)

  8. Todd Kolber Says:

    Greg, I did the same thing for my company. If someone is going to say, “My company sucks, well then, they must swallow!” I hope that didn’t offend anyone! Cathy, is the domain WellFargoSucks.com available?

    I’m not quite understanding what all
    this is supposed to be about?

    Must be me or something…

  12. tkolber Says:

    I think some computer geeks hacked on the blog. That is why you don’t understand it. You have to be lame.

  13. Ron Asteak Says:

    Zillow “Guess-Idiots” appear to rely on public tax records that in some cases haven’t been updated in twenty-five years. The zestimator is a sketchy tool to rely on. I believe it’s best to use a Professional Realtor when appraising property.
