Ann Arbor Buyer Agent Quoted on CBS News about Property Listing Language

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ann Arbor, MI, November 2, 2015
Released just in time for Halloween, 10 Signs of a Scary Real Estate Listing, a recent article by Ilyce Glink, borrowed wisdom and advice from Home Buyer’s Agent of Ann Arbor broker Jon Boyd. Noting 10 top misleading phrases often employed in property ads, the article was verily an expose on the real meaning behind trending word choices in descriptions for residences for sale.

From “All work has been carried out for you” subtly referring to a home flipped with reduced-quality materials to the results of “As is” listings , the article explored the subtext of these typical phrases employed by real estate agents to artfully describe their listings. Boyd, a veteran of the pursuit of truthful disclosure in home marketing, was happy to lend his expertise to this article, and Glink employed a number of of his anecdotes to illustrate the often-misleading terminology. “We think Ilyce Glink is great”, Boyd said. “She has been a excellent consumer author for many years and I even have one of her real estate books in our meeting area bookshelf. When her crew asked me for some input for this article I did everything I could to help them out.”

Jon Boyd went on to say that “The language of listings is often confusing to home buyers, sometimes intentionally…Buyers need to understand that the purpose of the listing agent’s remarks is to get you in the home and buy the house, not to inform you and certainly not to disclose things that would direct you away from a house that you could possibly buy. It is not an exact science, but buyers should remember it is an advertisement for the home. It is not objective.”
