I recently received a call from a gentleman who told me how much he loved reading the descriptions of properties on my website (www.robinshapirorealty.com). He had only one question – what does FDR stand for? (Hint: It’s not a dead president!). It gave me the idea for this article! Here’s a quick list of what some abbreviations stand for in my world:

FDR: Formal dining room

FLR: Formal living room

EIK: Eat-in kitchen

IGP: In-ground pool

WBFP: Wood burning fireplace

GBFP: Gas burning fireplace

B/Y: Backyard

PVT: Private, usually referring to private driveway

D/W: Dishwasher or driveway

CO: Certificate of Occupancy

CAC: Central air conditioning

MLS: Multiple Listing Service (not used in Rockaway)

If I missed one, give me a call and I’ll explain it! Robin Shapiro, 718-490-9463.
