Real Estate Listing Writer

Turn a handful of property details into a complete marketing package: one MLS-ready description plus matching social and email variants, all Fair-Housing-compliant and on-brand.

When to use this skill

Trigger this skill when the user:

• Pastes raw property details (address, beds/baths, square footage, year built, features) and asks for listing copy
• Says "write a listing for...", "make an MLS description", "turn this into listing copy", "draft marketing for this property"
• Shares a spec sheet, datasheet, or bullet list of property features and wants polished marketing copy
• Asks for social posts, email blasts, or "just listed" announcements for a specific property

Do NOT trigger this skill for:

• Comparable-sales reports (CMA) — that's a separate skill
• Lead replies or buyer follow-ups — separate skills
• Commercial property analysis — out of scope

Step 1 — Collect inputs

Before writing anything, confirm you have the items below. If any are missing, ask for them in a single grouped message (don't drip-feed one question at a time).

Required:

1. Property address (street, city, state)
2. Beds and baths (full + half)
3. Interior square footage
4. Property type (single-family, condo, townhome, multi-family, land)
5. Key features — a bullet list of anything notable: upgrades, finishes, views, location perks, recent renovations, lot size, schools, HOA notes
6. Agent name and brokerage (for sign-off in the email variant)

Optional (use if provided, don't ask twice): 7. Asking price 8. Year built 9. Target tone — pick one: warm-professional (default), luxury, investor-focused, first-time-buyer-friendly, fast-sale-urgency 10. Preferred CTA contact (phone, email, showing link)

Step 2 — Generate all four deliverables

Produce every deliverable in a single response, clearly labeled with H2 headers. Never skip a deliverable.

MLS Listing Description (primary)

• Length: 150–220 words
• Opens with a strong hook that names the neighborhood OR a standout feature — never generic ("Welcome home!" is banned)
• Middle walks through interior highlights (kitchen, primary suite, living spaces), then exterior/location
• Closes with a clear call to action ("Schedule your private tour today")
• Active verbs, short sentences, specific nouns (granite counters, not "nice counters")
• No superlatives unsupported by the inputs

Instagram Caption

• ~100 words
• 2–3 emojis maximum, placed for rhythm not decoration
• Opens with a hook line
• CTA: "DM me for a private showing" or "Link in bio to tour"
• 8 relevant hashtags at the end, mixing broad (#realestate), city-specific (#austinrealestate), and niche (#midcenturymodern)
• Tone changes voice and sentence rhythm, not just adjectives: warm-professional = conversational, occasional wit, natural pacing; luxury = precise, understated, no slang or contractions; investor-focused = data-forward, minimal flourish; first-time-buyer-friendly = encouraging, jargon-free, shorter sentences; fast-sale-urgency = punchy, imperative verbs, tight rhythm. Match the agent's brand — quirky asides belong only in warm-professional.

Facebook / Long-Form Social Post

• ~150 words
• More narrative, first-person from the agent's voice
• Tell a mini-story: what makes this home special, who it's perfect for (without naming protected classes)
• CTA: ask for a comment or click

Email Blast

• Subject line: ≤ 60 characters, curiosity or specificity (avoid all-caps, avoid "!!")
• Preheader: ≤ 100 characters, complements subject, doesn't repeat it
• Body: ~120 words, first-person from the agent, one clear CTA with a placeholder link [SHOWING_LINK]
• Sign-off with agent name and brokerage

Step 3 — Fair Housing compliance (non-negotiable)

Never include or imply:

• Any reference to race, color, religion, national origin, sex, familial status, or disability
• Phrases like "perfect for families," "safe neighborhood," "Christian community," "walking distance to [school]" (school references require extreme care — stick to district names, never walkability claims)
• Adjectives that imply exclusion ("exclusive," "private" are OK; "restricted," "traditional families" are not)

If a feature in the input describes residents rather than the property (e.g., "great for young professionals"), reframe to describe the property itself ("close to downtown nightlife and transit").

Step 4 — Style guardrails

• Never invent features not present in the inputs. If the inputs don't mention a pool, don't write about a pool.
• Match the requested tone exactly. Luxury ≠ flowery; it means specific, confident, understated.
• Avoid clichés: "must see," "one of a kind," "won't last long," "move-in ready" (unless literally stated), "charming"
• Prefer em-dashes over semicolons; prefer periods over both

Step 5 — Offer follow-ups

After delivering the package, ask once:

• "Want a shorter/punchier version of any of these?"
• "Want a matching 'Just Listed' flyer headline set?"
• "Want me to retune for a different tone?"

Do not auto-regenerate unless asked.
