Calling a livestock trough a pool certainly is a new stretch for real estate agents… Then again, they tend to stretch the meaning of almost every word to fit their god-awful narratives.
How did those over the top and ludicrous descriptions become the default? I really don’t get it. I lived in the UK and property descriptions there are extremely straight forward and honest. When I read listings here they just give off sketchy huckster vibes.
The real estate agent never mentions pool in his marketing description. He doesn’t mention that “trough” at all. I found the description to be straight forward and accurate.
definitely a livestock trough
