Can we share some tips or wording about effective Craigslist headlines and/or ads on selling a recently rehabed house?
Thank you

Luiz,
I use Craigslist all the time to advertise properties. Below are some techniques I use
*For rehab properties I use words like:
-I SEE A BEAT UP HOU$E-DO YOU $EE DOLLAR $IGN$
-Rehabbers DREAM
-I $EE DOLLAR $IGN$-DO YOU!
-All REHABBED OUT! HELP!
-COME FLIP MY HOU$E
-LQQKING FOR SERIOUS REHABBERS
*For homes that have completed the Rehab process I use words like, Completely renovated, all new ammenities, This ulgy duckling has transformed, Fully restored, come check me out!
*Also thing I found effect was adding the comps. People love numbers
*Creative use of words like the two capital QQ's to show eyes
*Personalize the add. My observation with most people are they dont like big business. I use phases like:
-please no calls only text (dont want to get fired)LOL
-Catchy headers NEWBIE N OVER MY HEAD :(
-Add humor. Once I used Where's the Gov Program to trade my beat up home??
Good Luck to you
