Why You Should Always Proofread Your Real Estate Ad

With monitor shrink its size we tend to spend less time proof read and typo shows up.  For example, a house priced $625000  shows as $62500 or $6250000

mess up the intend.   It is best to have another agent to proof it for you to make sure info is accurate.

I am thinking that there is a water bed within the guest room, but should someone not want to use it as a water bed, they can open it up and take a swim, haha.

Auto correct does not always correct! 

Hi Jeffrey, Is the indoor pool the basement? perhaps being a cleaver way of disclosing the basement floods?

Jeffrey oh yes, I have seen lots of funny typos over the years. And you're right it always gives us a chance to chuckle. Thanks!

Anything that is going out before the public eye should be proof read in my opinion, but you are correct that some mistakes we see can provide entertainment. Hopefully that's a far as it goes for a few chuckles because some mistakes can cost you dearly.

I think Sam may be onto something with his #1 comment about "monitor shrink" being a cause for some ad errors.  Proof reading on tiny screens can be more difficult! 

So many mistakes are made when we rush.   Advertising needs to be well thought out.

Oops.  That one simple word OR takes the focus right off the property and on to the ding dong who wrote it.
