Funny Typos in Listings

How funny is that?!!! Cool

this is not really a typo but always make me laugh.....

"PRICED TO SELL!!!" as opposed to what??  Priced to not sell?  priced to keep? 

Leanne, we have a very nice, very professional elderly Realtor® in my area from another country originally; and he does his MLS write ups like he talks - he is a one man show at his Company too, so I don't know if he gets anything proofread. But he leaves out letters and adds them in; and he calls rooms by funny names; we hang his posts up in the office. It's hard to get mad at him because he does a good job on contract work, but boy his mls listings are hard to read!  As soon as I hit send I remembered one: "upstairs bathroom no go"  ????? So what it really means, I found out, is that it needs work!  :-)

LOLOL  Now, isn't it true that once it appears in MLS if someone makes an offer on it it has to stand? I've never seen anything THAT drastic though!

Those are great. I can't rell you howm merny ttipos e sea in the remarks session! :) (Oops. Sorry, I typed section wrong!)

I love this list, I had to add one too:

...Great Neighborhood at the end of a cuddlesack

Nancy Brenner, Associate Broker

I like it too; very Desperate Housewife's ish :-)

Leanne,

Thanks for laugh.  It's amazing that agents don't double check there listings.  Don't they know they may be auditioning for new listings with their current listings.

In my primary MLS we are broker load. The AE reviews the listings before taking them from "temp" to "active." She usually catches most mistakes, but last week she missed this one by a seasoned agent:

"Hoe needs lots of work."

 

LOL!- those are just too funny! I have seen quite a few myself and they make me giggle!

Just found:

"Grate Location"

Are you kiding me?

One agent in our office misread the listing agents handwriting.

She entered an "ELK kitchen"

EatInKitchen was the actual description.

Yes, some are very funny--I happen to be a bit Dyslexic--and the word that gives me the most problme is grate/great! Do you have any advise advice for someone like me!  

Ok! problem gives me a problem lol

It's a good thing that to be a grate Realotr you don't have to be a grate speller!  But I usally do catch the errors!

My pet peeve is more with unethical agents than with bad spellers!  But you do make a good point!

Hey Leanne,

This happens to be a great way to market. I haven't personally done this myself. But, It's known to grab attention and you'd be surprised who would call you to correct you, they could become your client. So mostly likely these were intentional. Let's hope so anyway....LOL

Love this. Ok included in a future list of ours. Thanks again for this funny reminder!

this made me think of a time when I worked in a hospital..and a nurse wrote in a chart "patient got foot stuck in throat"  (meaning food)
