I’m easily amused; especially by some of the listings I see in our Boise MLS.

These are actual excerpts from MLS listings; you simply can’t make this stuff up!

• Sellers are very aware of the importance of home being available for showing.
• If no answer, go and show but dogs are dogs. They don’t have a history of biting. More likely to like you to death.
• Clients are packing anticipating your offer. Garage has boxes in it.
• Do NOT let the cats out! They are very dear to the family who lives here and will be corralled in the laundry room or one of the bedrooms.
• Pictures were taken in 2011.
• They will need to remover their little Chihuahua.
• Hot house.
• There may be microbial growth on parts of the subflooring.
• Will need some sprucing up and repairs to make it a nice home. Yes, it is a fixer-upper.
• Take a peak with your favorite Realtor.
• Newer carpet a year ago, seller was going to clean them but she got sick and wasn’t able to finish yet.
• This is the nice stuff. Just walk in and you will fall in love!
• Please refer to city ordinance for how many or each animal you can have. I think it is one horse or one cow. Not sure about the goats and or if you can have a goat and a horse etc.
• Separate easting area.
• A transaction can be facilitated for at or around the asking price.
• The horses come to the fence and eat carrots from the home owners.
• They works from home but they are very accommodating.
• No backyard neighbors creates a calming reprieve.
• Animals such as horses are welcome here.
• Stainless appliances are not included!!
• Acreage is not square, is on triangle form, open area, planty of parking space for work trylas, good place for horse.
• Owners were planning on staying here a long time but circumstances changed.
• Imagine the summer barbecues you’ll have in the huge backyard, or cozy around the fireplace in the winter.
• Covered patio is ripe with opportunities.
• B board in the kitchen.
• Dog in house. Please do not let him out front door he can be sneaky.

And, my favorite is:

• Water is on a shared well, paid by ass. dues.
