July 16th, 2008 Protip: Don’t hire The Friendly Giant to take your MLS pictures. He’ll just eat all the food in the fridge, bump his head on door frames, and capture horrible images like this. That chandelier/fixture/monstrosity has no business being the focal point of this photo. This picture is also horrible because it isn’tContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #134”

July 15th, 2008 “Split Personality“ There’s a right way and a wrong way to capture both parts of this room. This is the wrong way. The focal point of this photo is that frame on the wall, and it looks awkward. Also, the whole series of photos on this listing looks like it was shotContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #133”

July 14th, 2008 Wow – this breaks a lot of my “rules” at the same time. Obviously, it’s out-of-focus. Sometimes it’s hard to tell on the small screen of a digital camera, but one this bad should have been easy to see. Always shoot two or three pictures so you have a couple of back-upsContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #132”

July 13th, 2008 Great job. You can almost tell it’s the kitchen. It’s comforting to know that those closet doors are well-built, as this super close up reveals.

July 12th, 2008 “All in all it’s just a horrible shot of the wall“ Almost 80% of this picture is a wall; if it doesn’t jump out at you and say “KITCHEN!,” then it’s not a good shot of the kitchen! Clean the crap off the fridge, too. See all the usual suspects here. –TimContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #130”

July 11th, 2008 This boring, uninspired photo doesn’t exactly jump out and say “super summer patio living.” I can’t stress this enough. REALTORS®, with more and more listings on the market every day, and fewer sales, you need to be representing your properties in the best way possible. Sellers, if the photos of your propertyContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #129”

July 9th, 2008 “Maple Leaf Wieners“ This photo makes the condo look really small, and it appears to be very cluttered. This condo has been on the market a long time. Part of me would like to think it’s all because of that Maple Leafs sweater on the wall. 😉 See all the usual suspectsContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #127”

July 8th, 2008 “Forest through the trees“ I don’t post many outside photos here on the Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day, but this one had to be pointed out. Granted, it’s not the only exterior shot of the house (the other one was much better) but it’s set as the main photo for theContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #126”

July 7th, 2008 Another shot of stairs. We had one of these a week or so ago, too. Why?
