September 17 2014
This post comes to us from the Market Leader blog:
I was hoping this column wouldn't be necessary. But there's a new book that recently came out that proves it is – Terrible Real Estate Photos by Andy Donaldson.
I understand Andy didn't take these bad photos. He just found and collected them from the Internet – from actual home listings. It's depressing to think about: Some real estate agent or FSBO do-it-yourselfer actually looked at these rooms and thought to themselves, "Oooh, selling point!"
One lesson learned: Take the time to clean the shampoo and deodorant containers out before taking a bathroom shot. (And check out the plumbing thoroughly, too!)
Ok, so that's an extreme example. And it's probably something you're going to want to disclose to a potential buyer.
And as for this photo:
That's one of those things you're probably going to want to paint over before listing the house. (Well, that and thoroughly check the attics and crawl spaces.)
