Atrocious listing photos are an excellent way to insure no one will look at your home, let alone buy it! If you've spent any time at all on the internet shopping for homes, I'm sure you've come across some pictures of homes and thought, "What the heck?"
I have! This blog is in no way meant to be offensive, but merely to shed some light on the world of Bad Listing Photos and encourage sellers to think about how they are presenting their home to the world, via the internet.
You can have this home, creepy doll included!!
Multi-purpose kitchen- do your dishes and your laundry!
Either this ghost means business, or the home has a ventilation problem...
Wait....are we in the kitchen or the garden or...wait...what's going on here?
Always nice to see a dirty toilet.
They're all looking at you. Don't you want to buy this house?
Yep. This screams, "Fabulous Home!" Not really.
Couch potato included!
"I'm too lazy to get out of the car to take a picture, but you can bet I'll work hard to sell your house," said no successful Realtor ever.
So, the alternate potty seat is on the trash can, why? Just put your stuff away!
"I'm such a fabulous Realtor, I'm going to be in the picture too!"
"Fireman pole and party included in the purchase of this home!" Liability insurance may vary.
Have you heard the saying, "Can't see the forest for the trees?" This is kinda like that. Can't see the kitchen for the clutter.
If you want to sell your home, take the time to put your home's "best foot forward!" There are enough challenges as it is when your home is on the market, don't create more with bad listing photos! Your Realtor should be providing professional photos to best market your home, otherwise they're not working in your best interests.

I would love to help you with all of your real estate needs! I'm never too busy for your referrals!
