Okay, so I'm not an aspiring Pulitzer Prize winning author. I'm still searching for my voice as a blogger. As a hired professional I'd like to think I can be a decent wordsmith entering public and confidential comments in a listing to cause a buyer or another agent to want to come see my client's home. I'd also like to think that my buyers and I would do the same in response to someone else's verbal imagery and attention to detail.
Here are some of the finer examples of what our brethren out there are saying to sell their clients homes (these are cut and pasted from real listings, all expired):
"A beutiful property ready to move in. 4 spacious bedrooms. One bedroom/office downstairs. Large eclosed patio in a well mainteained community. Confidential Remarks: Short Sale Sale Price and Commions require lender approval. Commision split 50/50." I love the reckless abandon and blatant disregard for spellcheck here.
"Confidential Remarks: Call LA re LB. Home has talkative birds." Los Angeles, Long Beach? Do the birds convey with the property?
"NOT a short sale! NOT bank owned! Seller very motivated. Submit any offer!" I'll buy that for a dollar.
"Using an experienced short sale negotiator with 90% success rate." This one expired, part of the 10% I guess.
"CBB%: 100.00%" Commission to Buyer's Broker 100%?? (Typically 2.5%-3%). Quick, anyone, buy this!
" " (Nothing, zip, nada, no comments at all). I love this when agents have nothing to say.
And today's favorite - "Very Messy, Dirty, and outdated. Floor has soft spots. Hard wood floors may be damaged. Needs all new Flooring, appliances, and a seriously thorough cleaning. Crack in walls recommend buyers has stucture checked for stability. needs lots of work. Hold your breath or bring a mask."
Has anyone seen any funnier ones out there?
Have a great week.
