Property Presentation

Writing Property Descriptions That Inform Instead of Exaggerate

Separate verified facts, seller-provided information, editorial wording and market interpretation.

Separate four kinds of statements

Verified property facts can be checked against source material. Seller-provided information is useful but should remain identified as supplied. Editorial description explains the space in readable language. Market interpretation is a separate layer and needs its own evidence.

Prefer concrete words

Say what is present, where it is and what is not known. Replace “perfect” or “unbeatable” with an observable feature. Replace urgency with a dated, factual status. Do not imply a guarantee about interest, price or speed of sale.

Write for more than one reader

Expand abbreviations, keep units consistent and avoid local shorthand without explanation. A translation should preserve the source fact, not smooth away an uncertainty or introduce a stronger claim.

Use a claim check

Before approval, underline every number, comparison and environmental or legal-sounding statement. Link it to a source or label it as an owner statement awaiting verification.
