L@@K! Photos from Real Estate Listings (see remarks)

I like the idea but it does totally have that built in 2003 look.

I thought it was one of those facade houses you see on a movie set, until I saw the actual listing.

I mean, don't sneeze too hard around that thing.

I do gotta say this house was made for those awful wide-angle shots they use in the listings.

I mean, Living Room Dim. 23 X 12. I almost wonder if it was built out of spite.

I just cracked myself up imagining the sound of all of harbl’s responses to that house as delivered by a pennsyltucky renovation contractor over a shitty PTT radio

I’m easily amused

absolutely fucking deranged

there's some kind of photoshop prankery going on here right?? what IS all that stuff everywhere on the walls? how is that one attic window even cut into that wall? the angles seem all screwed up!

electrical outlets?

but............ so MANY

Almost looks like it was previously full of hospital beds or something.

Even the shower had too many knobs.

Kinda curious what the stove range must've looked like.

I've also learned tonight what is a "chain-free" real estate deal.

Not crazy about "virtual staging," but at least it's pretty easy to spot:

While I can usually deduce if something is fake, now I'm having a hard time deciding if something's real:

The TV is definitely a virtual addition. The fireplace doesn't look right. And I about decided those couches were a figment of someone's imagination until:

Those couches are floating, right? Then why go through all the trouble, but leave in the personal effects on the wall? But maybe the furniture is real.

But seriously. Those televisions are weirding me out.

what if... none of the decor was real?

lol which way is that bed supposed to be made up??

tv_on_a_stool.jpg like it ain’t no thang

Maybe it really ain't no thang!

But man, I'll say this: There is some cheap real estate in El Paso, Texas.

it's bad if that is a neutral decor look.

Those are some ugly ass virtual couches

Nothing to see here, in your lovely original features bathroom. No, the bathtub was always that colour that isnt covering up any stains what are you on about.

that's gotta be a spec house that's never been sold

people are so bad at building appealing mansions

That house is ugly af

"Well, putting a ramp down to the driveway would've been too steep."

https://i.imgur.com/3KD9dFS.jpg

Tbh, when considering handicapped access, the grade of the ramp can’t be too high or you risk creating much worse problems.

I get that.

This half-and-half concept is pretty bold though.

The front porch step is pretty high, and the rails are definitely made to support someone with working legs.

STILL.

I've been scratching my head really hard at why someone would want to design their back patio to look like a walkway in a public park

Also baffling, but less so, from the same listing, is this oddly shaped built-in shelving arrangement.

https://photos.zillowstatic.com/uncropped_scaled_within_1536_1152/ISznoe98ol5i511000000000.webp

looks like they had a business in their basement

Noticed that was one of the few rooms where they didn't digitally insert a furniture arrangement. Guess the Realtors were stumped too.
