Translating Estate Agent Gruff

how about a house i went to view a few years back,
EA described it as "recently refurbished to Bord Failte standards as a bed and breakfast, but would suit as a family home"
When i went to view the house, it was decrepit, with rising damp, dry rot, sewage flowing over the yard. I said it to the EA, as i had wasted my time going to view it. he just shrugged and said, Estate Agents licence.
 
The house we live in now was described as 'benefits from single glazing' - as opposed to...?
 
slightly off topic,but...
I recall a few years back when Ryanair opened their Dublin to Beauvais route that a travel article made a snide comment that they would soon be flying to their new Dublin airport (mullingar)....
8-10 years on and Mullingar is the new must see commuter suburb...
