Akron Ohio Homes, Doggie Doo comes with pool!!

By
Real Estate Agent with Howard Hanna Real Estate Services


This is in the realm of good and not so good realtor's pictures!!!!

Took a client to look at this home. I had all the information and pictures. Looked nice, but did not notice what was lying around the pool with all the chairs and kid's toys. Well, it became really obvious when we walked out the back doors! They had very big dogs and very big dogs leave lots of big "baby ruth's!"

Would you have actually taken these pictures? A genuine, certified Akron, Ohio real estate agent did!!

dog no no

 

oh no!

 

It's true!

Now, if I had not told you what that was, would you have been prepared?

Please feel free to post and share any similar pictures used to market homes in your area.

LOL... Nice!

I had a similar situation recently, but those pics were NOT on the MLS.  The deck was gated to the yard and it appeared that the gate was long-left closed.  The deck, needless to say, was piled!

Thanks for the laugh Dave!!

They probably would have done much better to ask the homeowner to clean up after the dogs BEFORE taking the pictures.

As a home inspector, who has to walk around the yards and outsides all the time, I am constantly on the "alert" for those land mines.

Lol.... I sometimes ask myself:  Why would someone take a picture like that as I look through the listings.
