May 6th, 2008 “Clean up with this GREAT deal.” Another HMLSPOTD, another dishwasher shot. This one is so excited about the new dishwasher, they left that blue anti-scratch protective film on the control panel to emphasize it.

Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #62
May 5th, 2008 “Whoa….Far out, man!” Sadly, almost every picture from this listing qualifies for this blog, but a guy’s gotta save some good material for another day, right? I really don’t understand why this is on the Internet, for the world to see. See all the usual suspects here. –Tim Ayres Subscribe via e-mail,Continue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #62”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #61
May 4th, 2008 “On The Right Track” Nice shot of the track lighting, but what does the rest of the kitchen look like. You know, one of the most important areas in the home that will often make or break a buyer’s decision on which ones to see and which ones to pass on? SeeContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #61”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #60
May 3rd, 2008 “…And in THIS corner, weighing in at 235 lbs…” I could do a whole week’s worth of HMLSPOTD posts with this same photo, shot in 7 different locations across our region. Vacant units are hard to shoot, and I am often at a loss when it comes to getting a good pictureContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #60”
Sooke New Listings MLS Tour Summary #2
Due to MLS® advertising rules, I’ve decided that I can’t offer the tour summary any longer. I thought about this all last week, and came to the conclusion it could come across as advertising other agents’ listings, which is not allowed under our Rules of Cooperation. I’d rather stop doing it voluntarily than be toldContinue reading “Sooke New Listings MLS Tour Summary #2”
A Bold Statement
Local Upstart REALTOR® Prospecting Site Thinks it has what it takes to rival MLS.ca MLS.ca. Canada’s nationwide MLS. Every MLS listing, coast-to-coast. It’s practically a cultural institution, and millions of people use it to peek at their neighbour’s decorating scheme, or to view photos of houses before a military house-hunting trip in Halifax. I receivedContinue reading “A Bold Statement”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #59
May 2nd, 2008 “Fridge Magnet Collection Negotiable” One of the best pieces of advice to give a client when listing a place for sale is to clear away clutter. The last thing you want a buyer to do when touring your house (or viewing the photos on MLS.ca) is to spend time admiring (or lamenting)Continue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #59”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #58
May 1st, 2008 “That SINK-ing feeling” Of the five pictures of this half-million-dollar condo in Victoria, two are pictured here: close-ups of plumbing fixtures. With no shortage of expensive condos on the market (currently, 189 between $350,000 and $1M in Victoria proper alone), isn’t it likely that a buyer will skip this one in favourContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #58”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #57
April 30th, 2008 “This place will FLOOR you.” No, no, no! How is this useful to a buyer? Don’t waste your valuable photo spaces on pictures like this. Beyond being poorly composed, the white balance is clearly off, as this looks like it was shot on Mars. See all the usual suspects here. –Tim AyresContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #57”
Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #56
April 29th, 2008 “Look Out Beloooooooow!” OK, maybe not a horrible picture, but it just struck me as funny. Seems to me the next photo in the series could be a chalk outline after the REALTOR® fell to an untimely end after leaning over the bannister. See all the usual suspects here. –Tim Ayres SubscribeContinue reading “Horrible MLS Photo Of The Day #56”
