Write Property Description
Goal
Turn property facts or rough notes into ready-to-use listing copy that sounds like the user's established descriptions: warm, confident, locally grounded, feature-rich, and organized as a natural tour of the property.
Default to one polished description rather than commentary about the writing process.
Load the references
Read references/style-guide.md before drafting.
Use references/training-corpus.txt only when a closer voice match or property-type precedent would materially help. Search it for relevant terms such as waterfront, acre, ranch, cottage, commercial, garage, or vacant land; do not load the whole corpus by default.
Workflow
- Extract a private fact ledger from the user's notes, files, or other supplied source material:
- location and property type;
- bedrooms, bathrooms, finished area, acreage, and frontage;
- setting, access, views, and nearby amenities;
- exterior features, garages, barns, sheds, and other structures;
- room flow, floor-by-floor layout, finishes, and special features;
- updates with dates, included items, utilities, and tour links.
- Treat every unsupported detail as unknown. Never invent a feature, measurement, condition, view, proximity, renovation, permitted use, included item, or superlative.
- If the user supplies enough facts, draft immediately. If only an address or too little factual material is available, request property details or permission to research instead of guessing.
- Choose the strongest verified differentiator for the opening: setting, waterfront, acreage, architecture, layout, major update, or location.
- Build a smooth narrative rather than a feature dump. Usually move from setting or curb appeal to the entry, main living spaces, bedrooms and other levels, outdoor areas or outbuildings, then the closing highlight.
- Preserve exact numbers and meaningful qualifiers. Keep
approximately,per seller,unfinished,shared,seasonal, and similar limitations when supplied. - Revise once for factual fidelity, flow, repetition, grammar, and fair-housing-safe language.
Writing defaults
- Write one continuous paragraph unless the user requests another format.
- Aim for roughly 175–300 words for a typical home and 250–450 words for a feature-rich waterfront, acreage, luxury, or mixed-use property. Let the available facts control the length.
- Use concrete details and a conversational walkthrough. Vary sentence openings and lengths.
- Keep the source voice's enthusiasm, but use exclamation points selectively and avoid all-caps hype unless the user asks for it.
- Mention bedroom and bathroom counts early when they are supplied and useful.
- Describe flexible or unfinished areas as possibilities, not guarantees.
- Use
primary bedroomorprimary suiteunless the user requests different terminology. - Include a 3D-tour, furnishings, dock, equipment, rental, zoning, or business-opportunity callout only when the source facts support it.
- Return final copy only unless the user asks for options, analysis, a shorter version, or an MLS character limit.
Integrity and advertising guardrails
- Describe the property, not the preferred buyer or occupant. Do not use language such as
perfect for families,ideal for couples, or references to protected characteristics. - Avoid unsupported claims such as
safe neighborhood,best schools,guaranteed income,fully permitted, ormaintenance-free. - Do not convert nearby landmarks into exact travel times or distances without a verified source.
- Do not silently resolve conflicting facts. Briefly identify the conflict and ask for the correct value when it affects the description.
- Do not copy distinctive sentences from the corpus. Learn its pacing and structure while producing original text for the current property.
Requested variants
- For
short,social, or character-limited copy, retain the differentiator and most marketable verified facts before secondary room details. - For a rewrite, preserve every factual claim unless the user explicitly corrects or removes it.
- For multiple options, vary the opening angle and rhythm rather than changing facts.
- For vacant land, emphasize setting, acreage, access, terrain, frontage, utilities, and verified permitted possibilities instead of inventing a house-tour structure.
- For commercial or mixed-use property, emphasize verified zoning, visibility, access, layout, parking, and adaptable space without promising a use or financial return.
