Victoria realty expressions explained

Notorious for some of the most expensive houses in North America, our Victoria area realtor’s pride themselves in their colorful, yet somehow cryptic use of the English language.

Well – here at the CoffeeCrew blog, we love to help out by making sense of the confusing. So here are some examples and the appropriate translation:

Great starter home – Has rats, lethal mold and is not fit for human habitation.

Good location close to transportation – One block from the airport runway… and has rats.

Walking distance to the Jubilee Hospital – Has mold and rats. You will be hospitalized if you buy this house.

Amazing privacy – Has Big scary rats.

Priced to Sell! – Next door to a grow-op.

Delightful backyard – playful rats

A piece of heaven – At these prices you can own the promised land… and has Norway rats.
