Hold the phone, Batman. Is that a fieldstone planterbox in the kitchen on the right side? I'd try to draw eyes to the dishwasher, too.</blockquote>


Then again they could have cropped that out of the pic entirely. Hard to believe they didn't mention that in the poignant listing description:



"Incredible price !!! Beautiful home located in desired fountain valley city.Excellent school. Almost brand new and remodeled home. New roof, new cabinet,new counter top,new oven, new microwave hood,new diswasher,new tile,new carpet,new recess lights,new sky lights,new air conditioning,new garage door,new paint... what else..i do not remember to mention it.Huge back yard with so many fruit tree.Your buyer will love it. Hurry up...Not last long ! Regular sale !!!! "



Wait a minute?!?!? New oven, new microwave hood AND new dishwasher THAT DOESN'T MATCH?!?!? They couldn't spring the extra $100 to get the stainless dishwasher? No matter... "Not last long ! Regular sale !!!" Wow.... just wow.

I'm detecting a theme here w/ the tubs... I know a lot of people think furnished homes sell better because buyers lack imagination but really I'm pretty sure we know what to do with a tub.

I've actually been at an open house where they had rose pedals floating in the tub.

Like we all take baths with rose pedals around us (and Brad Pitt will be joining me any minute as well). :coolgrin:

When my folks remodeled our house in the 70's I'm not sure what they were more proud of, the burnt orange carpet or the fieldstone planter and fireplace.

Socal, as soon as I saw that photo it made me think of "I Dream of Jeannie." It's what I imagine Jeannie's room looked like inside her bottle. :coolgrin:

Well it does look like the sort of place where you'd find certain half-dressed women. LOL
 
ok finding funny listing pictures is too easy in Westminster.

One family's idea of tidying up for photos.

20 listing pictures=good! Random ones of your family dog and nothing else=not so much. I looked for a "dog-friendly home" reference in the description to justify the picture but the closest thing I found was the mention of a "carpet allowance".

I've noticed that messy interior photos seem to be a dead give-away of short-sale properties. They have just stopped caring.

Way to bargain CalGal ;)

I'm thinking you can buy a lot of toys and curtains for 590k.
 
I wonder if this is graffiti lingo for "Mi Casa es su Casa"

Stare at that picture for more than 5 minutes and you can actually feel your retinas start to burn.
