Terrible Estate Agent Photos
Terrible photos listed by estate agents/realtors that are so bad they’re funny.
Posting guidelines.
Posts in this community must be of property (inside or out) listed for sale which contains a terrible element. “Terrible” can refer to:
-
the photo itself (finger over the lens, too far away, people in the shot, bad Photoshop, etc.)
-
the property (weird layout, questionable plumbing, unsound structure, etc.)
-
the interior (carpeted bathrooms, awful taste interiors, weird mannequins/taxidermies/art, inflatable pools indoors, etc.)
-
the actual listing itself including unusual descriptions and unrealistic pricing. However, this isn’t a community to discuss the housing market in general. This is a comedic community - let’s keep it light.
-
Photos can be sourced from anywhere and be any age, but please check they haven’t already been posted.
-
Censor any names/contact details of private individuals.
-
Mark the post NSFW if it includes nudity or sensitive content

- Respect differences of opinion. Civil discussion/debate is fine, arguing is not. Criticise ideas, not people.
- Keep unrequested/unstructured critique to a minimum.
- Remember we have all chosen to be here voluntarily. Respect the spent time and effort people have spent creating posts in order to share something they find amusing with you.
- Swearing in general is fine, swearing to insult another commenter isn’t.

It doesn't even go to the ceiling! Imagine the dust.
This is what gets me. If they were forced to have load bearing pillars there, I could at least try to understand making use of the space. What is even the point of these walls?!
Everyone is so god damn obsessed with “open concept” that they try to wedge it in to places it makes no sense. When we were looking at houses, this kind of thing was everywhere. There probably used to be an enclosed rather small kitchen and then they tore down the walls and there’s no where for the fridge. So the kitchen is now invading the living room so there’s no where for furniture to really fit and the openness is broken up by this dumb enclosure which ruins the openness anyway. And it probably sold for over the asking price.
Usually it’s a flipper which generally means they have no taste, glob on to Pinterest trends, and do everything as cheaply and janky as possible.
Sounds like my house. The previous owner did all of the decorating, and she was not talented. I've only recently bought the house so I keep wondering around and looking at bits and going, why the hell did you do that.
This is a mobile home.
My uncle had one with this layout in the early 2000s.
That's where we put the booze.
You can limit the atrocity by putting hanging plants on top.
hmm dusty plants
In some sci-fi future, there'll be flying roombas to take care of that.
...actually, I suppose we have drones. Can drones dust? Can you strap a feather duster to one?
(Am I a single youtube search away from finding entire channels about drones with feather dusters strapped on?)
I can't picture how plants on top will reduce dust?
Is that a thing? Indoor plants to control dust?
No, but it will make use of the fact that it doesn't reach the ceiling and it could even look cool with a mix of plants and shelves on the sides

It gets worse, what's going on with the door in the background? It looks like the wall goes to the same level as the 'nook' and the ceiling light is in the room beyond it.
Like there was some kind of mezzanine floor that got hamfistedly removed.
I bet the door is to a pantry. They don't need vaulted ceilings, so it's better used as space for potted plants and the fine/display china. I've seen a lot of plant ledges and alcoves in newer houses. They can make the spaces appear much larger than they actually are.
ETA: the fridge enclosure is weird though. They could have just matched the bar height and put in 12-18 inch counters to make it functional
