We frequently get comments that include a variation on the following;
"Open mineshafts, be careful when showing the property". Care to tell me where they are?
Or "Do not show during the summer when the dead grass is high, fire danger." Really? I hadn't noticed. Why not tell me not to show the property when the 1 hour fuel moisture is lower than 21%?
Actually, the ones I think are the worst are those with a Fair Housing Act violation in them. I think I saw 6 or 7 today flipping through that said some variation of "Great family home", which is on the no-no list. That one isn't so bad, in the grand scheme of things, but is still technically a violation. Anything that can get you and/or your client sued is probably the definition of "bad remarks".
"Walk to" and "Mother in Law arrangement" are also common Fair Housing flags.
I wish agents would learn how to use spell checker. And, I've lost count of how many times I've seen the remark "Home in great conditions". The best I've seen recently is "Kitchen has Korean counter tops".
This agent couldn't find the period or comma on his keyboard
"Beautiful newer Folsom home totally remodeled New carpet flooring New tile flooring New granite countertops in all baths New light fixtures New interior paint New backyard New frontyard New New New.... Great floorplan Firepit in backyard 220 wiring in back for spa Nothing to do but move your furniture in Well located in fantastic neighborhood Excellent condition but being sold strictly as is Not a short sale or REO'
Instead of what? Instead of being priced to languish on the market for the next 300+ days?
My second favorite?
When you see some version of this "Make your appointment now - this one won't last!!!" And it's on a listing that's been on the market for hundreds of days.
I know those aren't quite what you meant, but I think they're funny nonetheless.
