✏️ 1. Title & Headline Analysis

Current Title:

"Chesapeake Retreat - 5 min Walk to Expo Line Metro"

Issues identified:

"Chesapeake" is geographically confusing — it evokes the Chesapeake Bay area (Maryland/Virginia), not Los Angeles
The branded name takes up prime real estate that could highlight features
No mention of bedrooms, neighborhood, or key amenities

Recommended Title:

"West Adams 3BR · Private Backyard · 5 Min to Expo Line · Fast WiFi"

Why this works: Front-loads the neighborhood (West Adams is trendy), property size, and top amenities. Transit access stays but moves to a supporting position. Every word sells.

📝 2. Description Optimization
