Why Your MLS Listings Read Like a Robot Wrote Them (And How MLSRoast Fixes It in 30 Seconds)
You spend 2 hours staging a $2.8M home to perfection. Custom lighting, fresh flowers, the works.
Then you copy-paste the same generic MLS description you’ve used 47 times: “Beautiful home in desirable neighborhood. Move-in ready. Must see!”
Your $2.8M listing now sounds identical to every $400K cookie-cutter in the suburbs.
The Problem: MLS Templates Are Killing Your Brand
Here’s what happens when luxury buyers read generic MLS copy:
- “Beautiful home” = Every agent says this
- “Move-in ready” = Translation: nothing special here
- “Must see” = Desperation signal
Your listing becomes invisible in a sea of identical language. Worse, it signals you don’t understand what makes THIS property special.
Luxury buyers don’t want “beautiful homes.” They want “architectural statements.” They don’t want “move-in ready.” They want “turnkey sophistication.”
The Solution: MLSRoast.com
I built MLSRoast because I was tired of seeing $5M homes described like suburban starter homes. Best part? It’s 100% free. No subscriptions, no hidden fees, no credit card required.Here’s how it works:
1.) Paste your generic MLS description (the boring stuff your assistant wrote) & fill out the fields
2.) Hit “Roast My Listing”
3.) Get a roast & premium copy that actually sells the lifestyle (scroll down for the actual re-written copy from our Yorba Linda listing example)
Real Example: Before vs After
Before (Generic MLS):
5371 *Redacted*: Where serenity meets possibility, in a neighborhood that’s all heart and horsepower.
This inviting 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home spans about 2,342 sq ft of thoughtful living space, set on a sprawling 28,304 sq ft lot with endless potential to shape your world.
Edge meets retreat with horse-property possibilities right outside your door, and Paxton Horse Arena just a short stroll away for riding days and community energy. You’re also within close proximity to the Yorba Linda Country Club, where the vibe is friendly, the golf carts cruise, and the streets feel alive with friendly neighbors.
Recent updates keep things fresh: a new roof and renewed exterior paint give the home a clean, confident curb appeal and a solid foundation for whatever you dream up.
This isn’t just a house—it’s a canvas for a bold, happy life in a warm, family-filled pocket of town.“
After (Real MLSRoast Update from our Yorba Linda listing above):
Yorba Linda Horse Property on Nearly 29,000 Square Feet
This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home sits on 28,304 square feet in one of Yorba Linda’s most coveted pockets, where you can keep horses in your backyard and walk to Paxton Horse Arena. The 2,342 square feet of living space has been freshly updated with a new roof and exterior paint, so you won’t be dealing with deferred maintenance surprises. You’re also minutes from Yorba Linda Country Club if golf is your thing.
The Kitchen and Living Areas
The main living spaces flow together naturally, which means you can cook dinner while keeping an eye on kids doing homework or guests hanging out. The kitchen has solid counter space and storage, plus easy access to both the dining area and family room. You won’t feel cut off from the action when you’re prepping meals….
See the difference? One sounds like every other listing. The other creates a scene, implies a lifestyle, justifies the price.
This shift from facts to feelings is a huge part of why AI will not replace real estate agents who know how to use these tools to tell a better story than a generic bot ever could.
The new listing is also 391 words, vs the original with 63, so we’re able to get more keywords into it, more features, and add more conversion points!Â
Why MLSRoast Works (The Secret Sauce)
Most AI tools give you generic “luxury” language. MLSRoast understands real estate psychology:
- Emotional triggers – “morning coffee” vs “kitchen”
- Lifestyle positioning – “resort-style grounds” vs “backyard”
- Investment justification – “lasting value” vs “great schools”
- Exclusivity signals – “sophisticated residence” vs “home”
The result: Copy that positions you as the agent who “gets” luxury marketing.
Perfect for These Situations:
✅ Luxury listings ($1M+) that need to stand out
✅ Unique properties (custom builds, architectural gems, waterfront)
✅ Competitive markets where generic copy gets ignored
✅ Investment properties that need ROI-focused language
✅ Quick turnarounds when you need premium copy in minutes
Beyond Just Better Copy
When you use MLSRoast consistently, three things happen:
- Your listings get more engagement (saves, shares, inquiries)
- Buyers recognize your “voice” across properties
- You build a reputation for understanding what luxury means
Translation: More qualified leads, faster sales, higher commissions.
The 30-Second Test
Take your most recent listing description. Read it out loud.
Does it sound like something only YOU would write about only THIS property?
Or does it sound like template #47 from MLS training class?
If it’s template #47, your listing is competing on price, not on desirability.
MLSRoast fixes that in 30 seconds.
