Are Real Estate Agents shonky where you are as well?(both)

There is this idiocy in Australia where properties are now, "Priced From"
What does that even mean?
Priced from $649,000, Priced from $539,000
My understanding is when Priced From is used that is the minimum price.
Such as when Cafes advertise; Coffee, Priced from $4. Small coffee will be $4, anything larger will be dearer.
So how does this apply to a house, "Priced From". How would a house priced in such a way be more expensive?

Blocks of land vary on size and location.. end of a cul de sac.
Near a reserve.. but yes. They’re shonky fuckers at best

they always keep some of your bond for ‘wear n tear’ some bullshit reason they claim.. it’s really you paying a few weeks extra rent until they fill it again

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout If the House price displayed is $539,000 what has Priced From got to do with it?
Surely the price is $539,000.
Or does it mean

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout No, not an auction lot.
Most Estate Agent use this pricing display method now.
I sent an e mail to an Estate Agent asking what the fuck?
