“Sag Day?”  “Trough Day?”

There’s really no good counterpart in real estate to the 9-to-5 world’s “Hump Day” — otherwise known as “Wednesday.”

In keeping with the “Opposite George”** nature of real estate, Wednesday to Realtors typically represents the low ebb of the work week.

That’s because it follows Tuesdays, when all the new listings are showcased on Broker Tour, and brokers hold their weekly office meetings (at least, that’s how they do it in the Twin Cities).

And it precedes the weekend, when Realtors typically gear up for open houses that they’re hosting, or showing houses if they’re working with Buyers.

**Seinfeld’s sidekick, George Costanza, decides that, if everything he’s ever done has backfired, doing the opposite of that will lead to success.
