When Melbourne buyer's agent Cate Bakos worked in sales, she had to try to find a buyer for a house owned by a couple going through a particularly nasty divorce.
"The husband refused to move out, so he camped in the garage," Bakos says. "It was nothing short of awkward and it gave the house a really negative feel. It passed in at auction. The buyers all referred to it as the guy-in-the-garage house."
