Copywriting Services
Copywriting is an overlooked piece of the real-estate media puzzle. Some buyers read first to see whether a property meets their basic needs. For all clients, carefully chosen words help to frame the photography and video, directing the viewer’s attention while also describing features that aren’t necessarily visible.
The standard format for our long property descriptions is 5 to 10 bullet points, each 2 to 3 sentences in length. The document can be quickly scanned at a glance, with boldface keywords as a guide. But it also rewards careful reading with an evocative account of the property and the surrounding neighborhood.
With just 1,000 characters – only about 150 words – the short description for MLS can be a make-or-break opportunity. We write potent, punchy MLS descriptions that read like paragraph-long highlight reels.
Upon request, we also offer long-form narrative property descriptions. Written in paragraphs with careful transitions, rather than in bullet points, they convey a sense of prestige that may be appropriate for some properties and their prospective buyers.
Full Length Property Description:
Arrestingly gorgeous Victorian details immediately welcome you in to this timeless yet timely 2-bedroom, 1-bath, 1195 square-foot condo. Located on a bright Mission Dolores block just a short walk from the convenient amenities on Market Street, 1234 Main Street is an unapparelled gem, striking the perfect balance of convenient city access with sophisticated seclusion and quietude.
Throughout the unit, gleaming, golden hardwood floors play against the ample natural light delivered from plentiful windows, most notably the large living room’s west-facing bay windows. Framed by built-in, glassed cabinets on either side, an unforgettable wooden mantlepiece with a unique inset mirror and fine period detailing crowns a fireplace, anchoring the living room and providing a heightened, classic sense of warmth.
High coved ceilings and elegant light fixtures complete the living room, which flows seamlessly into an equally well-lit and spacious formal dining room with a built-in hutch, inviting festive gatherings both teeming and intimate.
A thoroughly modern chef’s kitchen will delight cooks and guests alike with its pristine details. The clean lines of stainless-steel appliances and bountiful, custom Scavolini cabinets with the warmth of a marble island and backsplash, all complemented by a sunny breakfast nook overlooking an enclosed porch.
The spacious bedrooms each deliver comfort and privacy along with sumptuous light and airiness thanks to multiple windows, high ceilings and luminous hardwood flooring. A bright bathroom with marble-tiled step-in shower rounds-out the home’s functionality and beautiful simplicity.
A delightfully lush shared backyard further expands the sense of home and offers great options for al-fresco dining, evening cocktails, or even a little light urban gardening. A 1-car deeded garage provides parking and storage, along with access to laundry, underscore the brilliant balance of easy city living with generous, roomy comfort that this residence offers.
Just blocks away from Dolores Park, 1234 Main Street provides easy access to one of the city’s simple delights, which is blessed with an especially balmy microclimate and a gentle hillside with amphitheater-like seating for a panoramic view of downtown. Mission Dolores is also home to several purveyors of artisanal foods that everyone must try. Pizzeria Delfina, Four Barrel Coffee, Tartine Bakery, and Bi-Rite Creamery are all deservedly famous throughout the Bay Area and, in some cases, internationally as well. The nearby J Church train (Muni/Municipal Rail) provides a great way to get downtown or to the BART rail system for points beyond.
