Real Estate Synonyms — and Antonyms
True or false: “Meticulously maintained” means the same thing as “updated.”
Give up?
The correct answer is “False.”
In fact, “meticulously maintained” is almost always Realtor code for not updated.
Ditto for synonyms such as “well-loved,” “quaint,” “vintage,” “long-time owner,” etc. (all very nice things, by the way — just not the same as “updated”).
