I agree. Another very cool book with a similar approach is "Predictably Irrational" by Dan Ariely. If you like popular science / economics / sociology books, you'll enjoy that too. @Justin. I agree.

Sorry if it sounds stilted ;) That's a great comment you make too. Often, honesty is the best policy. No one is going to believe that a dump is a palace, so why not just tell the unvarnished truth, hey? Thanks again for contributing. Will Hey TigerTom

However, I've heard of at least one real estate agent who did a _roaring_ trade by telling the truth about properties e.g. "It's run down and needs substantial repairs. It's got mould and the location is terrible". Not a myth. The example you gave was a little stilted, but sound. Emphasise the benefits upfront.
