THINGS AGENT'S WRITE FOR THEIR LISTING OR WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?

I am amazed how the real estate industry keeps coming up with new phases every day. We sit around reading some of the broker's remarks and try to find the true meanings.

Cozy = Stick the key in the door and break out the back window

Won't last long = this one is made of Ice Cream

Must See = or you will go blind?

Bigger than it looks = How could that be?

Handyman Special = Oh my favorite, A total dump ready to fall down

This house needs a new owner = what happen to the old ones?

One of a kind = did they make only one?

Fixer upper = Means you have to gut the whole place

Motivated seller = Isn't everyone motivated they are trying to sell aren't they?

Make offer! = Okay some jacks 25 cents and half a pack of gum!

Priced to sell = Sorry I am only looking for the one that is not priced to sell.

Real charmer! = confusing the agent or the house?

Don't miss this one! = will there be others?

24 hour notice to show? = Does it take that long to clean it and remove the chalk lines off the floor?

No reasonable price refused! = What is reasonable? How about 100 bucks

Needs Paint? = what happen to the old stuff?

Walking closets? Where do they walk to (old enough to buy beer?)

Easy commute to downtown? 1,2,3 hours?

Bright and shiny! Is it a penny or a house?

Light and breezy = no roof or windows?

I could go on and on but what about 1# agent! Where? I meet 10 different 1# agents a week, where am I in all this? Did I miss the boat?

Hey waterfront property = when it rains!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 Up and coming neighorhood! Crack house just got shut down!
