Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #286

December 15th, 2008 Wow. As I always say, it’s not my place to poke fun at the state of people’s homes on the Internet. However, I do believe that as a REALTOR®, it’s my job to let a client know when they need to tidy up the kitchen, and I won’t take pictures until it’sContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #286”

Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #277

December 6th, 2008 Everybody lives differently, and sometimes it’s hard to counsel a client to de-clutter the house before you list it, but I believe it is the agent’s responsibility to do so. In this case, just simply removing that fan that is stealing all the attention would have made a huge difference in presentingContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #277”

Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #253

November 12th, 2008 Effort, people! How much extra effort would it have taken the REALTOR® who took this picture to turn off the TV and computer monitor, move the TV tray-table, rolled up carpet, dumbbells, and shoo the cat away? Not much, but it would have improved this picture immensely! See all the usual suspectsContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #253”

Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #198

September 18th, 2008 Nearly every home has a room like this. A place in the house where you put everything that really doesn’t fit anywhere else. In this case, we’ve got music, fitness, and extra furniture, it appears. Th first problem with this photo is that it’s too dark. We also have no idea howContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #198”

Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #188

September 8th, 2008 This REALTOR® must be busy. He or she was in such a hurry to shoot the pictures for this new listing that nearly every one was crooked, cluttered, and poorly composed. See all the usual suspects here. –Tim Ayres – Sooke Real Estate Professional Your comments are welcomed and encouraged! Just useContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #188”

Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #187

September 7th, 2008 Too busy and too close is the problem here. It’s hard for the viewer to get an idea of the size and shape of this room. A better choice would be to de-clutter it a little, stand back, and also shoot at more of an angle to give some depth perception toContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #187”

Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #182

September 2nd, 2008 I think the problem with this picture is fairly self-explanitory.

Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day Labour Day Spectacular! #179, #180, and #181

Sept 1st, 2008 I apologize for the late postings, but my Labour Day weekend has been occupied with, well, labour. I’ve been kept busy with Projectzilla, which comes in the form of re-roofing my large workshop in the back yard. So, here are the latest horrible MLS Photos: Did the REALTOR® interrupt the homeowner cookingContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day Labour Day Spectacular! #179, #180, and #181”

Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #174

August 25th, 2008 The distracting reflection on the glass doors could have been avoided by opening them, or shooting from a different angle, but that is hardly the first problem with this picture. Unless the bathroom is large enough to accommodate an Olympic-sized swimming pool, it’s useless to shoot it without a wide-angle lens. AllContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #174”
