Too funny.....

I'm wondering what agent would even take these and expect the pics to attract buyers.

I've seen some bad ones but these may be some of the worst...maybe not.

David- I hate to be a spoil sport, but I don't think you should encourage anyone to post others MLS pics. It could lead to nasty confrontations - copyright law, ethics, etc.

I do agree with you, however, that some of the pictures, agents publish, seem to be saying "I'm a Mess!! Don't buy me!!

We've seen some real winners over the past 5 years. We try to crop or clean up photos for our clients whenever we can, but sometimes it's just not possible! I wish I could find the one where the living room walls were lined with mounted Deer Head! (and a few fish!)

Low Maintenance Backyard? Gently sloping backyard...what do you say about this one??

Check out this Wall Paper!! Imagine looking at this every morning! I would have left this photo off the MLS and the flyer - but the agent wanted it!

I'd love to top these, but I am not sure I could find any as stupid as those you found it is hard to understand why an agent would post such trash in the MLS, Karen

HAHAHA! Yup amazingly the amount of listings without pics are staggering throughout the country, which leads to another issue clients have with agents in general. They are NOT worth the commission they charge. Why is a Mercedes more expensive than a Saturn? Then why would sellers accept a 6% deal from a Saturn agent if the Mercedes agent is the same deal? Like I have said alot of times before...sellers many many times make the decisions for an agent for all of the wrong reasons and consequently the lower totem pole of agents get a reprieve to stay in the biz dumbing it down as always. Pathetic I'd say.

Here's a good one...notice the mold on the lower right corner. Why would you take a picture of a half open garage. I later heard that the door is broker. This business is getting easier.
