Real Estate Pride is most often demonstrated when one visits a friend for the first time and one is shown all around the house and yard. This is partly manners too because it helps visitors locate the toilets with needing to ask. The strange thing I noticed though is that even when not at home, we sometimes get Real Estate Pride at other places, for example where we are holidaying. I know that if I had a friend come to Summer School with me for the first time, I would be very excited to show them around the camp site and show them the sights of dirt, rocks and large brown sheds and big white tents.
The reason I noticed this Holiday Real Estate Pride is because yesterday I went to visit some friends I knew in Sydney who were staying near where I am. After lunch they took me all around their holiday place and showed me the Gym, the game room, the pool, the sauna and all the other random attractions of the place.
It wasn't until later that I realized this is the same as showing someone around your house, or showing someone a cross stitch you did.
Again, not sure if it a bad thing
