Homes with curve appeal.... (agent, listing, percent, poor)

[oh come on!]

...... may lose half the showings.


" 43.4 percent of the 1,291 people surveyed said they would be much less inclined to tour a home if the listing contained misspellings or improper grammar."

Turns me off! I think, there's a lazy agent. But I would show it of course if it met my client's needs.

Beautiful dinning room

It would turn me off! Dinning room. Ha! See it all the time. My favorite was a listing who had parquet wood floors spelled Parkay! As in....it's not butter, it's Parkay! Lol

at least it wasn't 'stare' ....
I once came across a new listing with remarks opening with, '*** and see'. - someone was very excited to market the listing. Suffice to say, it was quickly changed.

They're definately to many mispellings and poor grammar in real estate listings. Its apparantly a problem with CD posts to--it seams that there everywhere. While an ocassional mispelling may not be two noticable, it rely becomes annoying when their are vary many of them. If your a succesful real estate agent, you should take pride in you're work--or, at least, be embarassed to right a poorly-worded listing. Otherwise, if you don't come accross as professional, you might loose a few sails because of it. Irregardless, I'm just greatful that I had good schooling. I have a low threshhold of tolerence for voidable misteaks. That truely may sound wierd to some but, to me, its the principal of the thing.
