The biggest turn-offs I notice when people market property

Everyone has a pet peeve or two. These things almost instantly turn me off when reading details about a property:

1) Exclamation points - I see this as an attempt by someone to fester excitement

2) Listing the cost to rehab a property - Those are your numbers...not mine. At least write "estimated rehab cost" as a disclaimer

3) Listing the After Repair Value - Again, your numbers...not mine. If you didn't start or finish the rehab, then that means you haven't gotten it appraised. Sure you can base it off comps in the area, but each piece of land is different. This rule applies even if two properties are side by side. 

Just my two cents.
