Ever looked through a real estate classified ad and thought "I need a code to crack this! What do all of these acronyms and abbreviations stand for?" Here is a basic real estate-to-English dictionary that can help:
appls - appliances dk - deck fr/dr - family room/dining room frplc, fplc, or fp - fireplace FSBO - for sale by owner gar - garage grmet kit - gourmet kitchen hdw, hwf - hardwood floors ofc - office pvt - private sf - square feet vw, vu - view wic - walk-in closets3bd/2ba or 3B/2B means three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Keep in mind that not all bathrooms are created equal. A full-bath consists of a sink, commode, shower, and tub; a three-quarter bath has everything except the tub, and a half-bath (or powder-bath) only has a sink and a commode.
Have you seen any other abbreviations/acronyms that you need help decoding? What are some other common real estate abbreviations that you've seen?
