I have said versions of 2 and 3 to people who are being completely unrealistic, and a version of #1 with those thinking their agent is going to find them the best house in the best school district that just needs some updating for 30% less than market, even though most of those go to neighbors' kids or friends, or their own family members, before anyone knows they're sold.
