REAL ESTATE ADS _ If buying a house is in your near future, you’ve probably still haven’t gotten used to all that fancy lingo the sellers use to describe every feature of the house. Which is why I have put together “Deciphering Real Estate Ad Phrases.”
• When the ad says: “COUNTRY FEEL IN THE CITY,” that means the previous owner kept a cow in the basement.
• When the ad says: “WIDE OPEN FLOOR PLAN,” that means the previous owner tore down all the walls.
• When the ad says: “UPDATED BATH,” that means the tub no longer overflows.
• When the ad says: “UPDATED KITCHEN,” that means the sink no longer overflows.
• When the ad says: “SECURITY SYSTEM,” that means the neighbor has a dog.
10 SENTENCES YOU CAN USE TO BE A BETTER FRIEND
– How are you feeling, really?
– Will you tell me more about that?
– What can I do to help?
– What was your day like?
– What’s feeling hard right now?
– What can I take off your plate?
– Here’s a strength of yours I noticed.
– It’s okay that you feel this way.
– Your feelings are normal.
– I’m checking in; no pressure to answer.
