What do property descriptions actually tell you?

As Mansion Global points out: “In the text of almost any real estate listing, buyers and brokers can expect an onslaught of superlatives. It’s as if every property is the best and most beautiful with top-of-the-line finishes, tranquil and lush outdoor space, and gorgeous views.

But buried in that over-dramatization is a lot of info that can clue buyers in about what to expect from a given property beyond just the number of bedrooms and bathrooms and the size of the home, which might save them time during their search or give them the upper hand during a negotiation.”
