I believe some of my readers are looking for new places to live, so this little post may come in very handy. Now when the Realtor starts using their industry-lingo to describe your "Dream Home", you'll know exactly what they mean.
Dream Home = You? Afford this place? You're dreaming!
Dream Home = You? Afford this place? You're dreaming!
Wide Open Floor Plan = Previous owner removed supporting walls
Starter home = Needs a lot of work, see "Wide Open Floor Plan"
Must see to believe = Usually used along with "Starter Home"
Scenic view = Of the garbage dump/trailer park/prison over the back fence
Useful outbuildings = No inside toilet
Country-style theme = Wooden toilet seats, also see "Useful Outbuildings"
Much sought-after = Listed twice and still no buyers
You'll love it = No, you won't
Unique city home = Used to be a warehouse, buildings either side still are
Much sought-after = Listed twice and still no buyers
You'll love it = No, you won't
Unique city home = Used to be a warehouse, buildings either side still are
Hamlet = Small, backwoods town. You'll never be a local, no matter how long you live there.
Charming = Tiny (room for Snow White, but none of the Dwarfs)
Cozy = Cramped (room for one of the Dwarfs)
Studio = Even smaller than cozy
And much, much more = we ran out of fake compliments

Talking about house. We saw our "Dream home" last night. It's about 5 houses from JE's school. Size wise it's perfect, 5bed, 3bath. Guess how much? 1.5 mil. Hmm, dont think so.
Actually it's only $1.25mil, but it's still our "Dream Home" ;)
