Writting Your Ad
There have been millions of attempts to write clever ads about homes in the classifieds. Have you ever read an ad that said “3bed/2bath” and thought instantly that it was the home for you? Your ad needs to be different and give proper descriptors to your home, but that is hard to do with 3 lines of abbreviated text.
The folks at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer have put together a neat article about which words seem to command the most attention. If you are just looking for a quick once over of the information, they have put together this chart.

I still recommend reading the article if you are trying to advertise your home in the newspaper.
