The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

It’s that time again…time to showcase the good, the bad, and the ugly of real estate photography!  Our ‘Wall of Shame’ features the bad (…and oh yes, the very ugly…) photos that some agents are using for their listings. On the opposite end of the spectrum, our ‘Wall of Fame’ features some of the most stunning photography agents are currently using to market their listings.

Enjoy!

 

WALL OF SHAME

Yes, lets focus on the extremely tiny, crowded closet... buyers aren't looking for a lot of closet space anyway, right? ;)  Seriously, why not just shot the door (or better yet, skip this all around bad photo all together!).  This is a $404,000 listing in Hawaii.

LOL!  Ok, I get that hot tubs are a selling point... but seriously, a close-up of that nasty green water is looking far removed from a relaxing spa...more like a huge, gross headache!  This is a $950,000 listing in California

Oh my.  We get it, things sometimes happen with cameras and technology that prevent some photos from coming out right.  But there's no excuse for actually then uploading it and KEEPING it there to market a listing (and in case you're wondering, no this is NOT a foreclosure)!  This is a $235,500 listing in Colorado.
