Call me crazy, but if I were going to try and sell my home for nearly $1.4 million, I would make sure my agent understands basic English grammar rules and has the professionalism to ensure they don't make a laughable mistake like this:
From the 1 David Street, Mission Viejo, Calif., 92694 listing on Redfin: CDS LOCATION-BEAUTIFUL ENTRY-PANORAMIC VIEW LOT, TOTALLY LANDSCAPED, F IRE PIT, BLT IN BBQ, FOUNTAINS, MBR DOWN +2ND BR, 2 BDS UP + LARGE GAME OR BONUS ROOM. LIVING AREA, DINING, DEN+GREAT AREA KITCHEN WITH GRANITE, WOOD FLOORING AND AMENITIES GALORE!!THIS IS TRULY A MISS SEE!!
No, it's a "miss"-type. The house is nice-looking, so I don't think it's a "miss see."
The "miss"-take is that these sellers believe they can get $133,000 more than they paid in February, 2007 while the market around them is crashing down.
Not good enough, real estate agent. You stand to make about $42,000 (assuming a 3 percent commission from the full asking price) from the sale of the house and you don't even take the time to let someone else proofread the listing?
At least this property has only been on the market for two days, so there is probably going to be plenty of time to fix the mistake.
