That is my "other" job - doing tours for Real Estate listings. The object is to make the home show at its best! I hate having photos of closets! First they are unattractive unless there is a major storage system. And second, if there are any valuables (or a safe) in the closets you really don't want that out on the internet for all to see.

It's very different in the UK, but the descriptions they use here mean anything. One phase they use is in need of some updating means it's falling down. <br />I hope whatever you find will at least have four walls and a roof, and you are all back together before Christmas <br />MargaretMargarets designer cardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07649752567816134409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8016156828945610244.post-91075202469623681382013-11-13T04:49:57.742-07:002013-11-13T04:49:57.742-07:00Maybe I'll just stay in my house forever.

At least now you have pictures on the Internet to look at so you can eliminate some without ever having to drive to the house. Or even talking to a Realtor until you have some ideas about what's out there.

It's a whole new experience in America and so very, very different to here in the UK. The whole thing is different. Interesting too.

You're going to repaint it anyway, right? Maybe they should consider putting photos up in black and white.<br /><br />I have to admit, some of them do make sense on some kind of level. The one with the wine glasses is probably not meant to show you the glasses per se, but the nifty little slots they're hanging from. Doesn't do anything for me, but for people who throw a lot of parties I can see how it might be a desirable feature. Maybe. And the closet ones are presumably there to show you how much the closets can hold, although it would have been better to show them empty. Because, yeah, who wants to see somebody else's stuff?<br /><br />As for the blackberries, well obviously they're trying to show you that the house will magically present you with a fresh bowl of blackberries every morning! I'd definitely take that!<br /><br />Bottom line, when you're trying to sell a house, people want to see the house, not your stuff in it.<br /><br />And yeah, for heaven's sake rotate the photos. How does one even take an upside-down photo? To be fair, the sideways kitchen does actually look fairly nice if you pick your computer up and rotate it 90 degrees. But if you're trying to sell something, you show it right side up instead of making the buyer do the work of figuring it out.<br /><br />And what is that red and white pic trying to show??? I can't even tell which way is up in that one!<br /><br />You would think that people whose livelihood comes from selling houses would understand what people do and don't want to see.Mirandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07966487848401662776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8016156828945610244.post-18802809324565277342013-11-12T13:00:09.241-07:002013-11-12T13:00:09.241-07:00ooh those pictures are great. can we see wall pape...ooh those pictures are great. can we see wall papers too. some of those can be gut wrenching. he heBatty Tatterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03705430962903860647noreply@blogger.com
