Terrible Estate Agent Photos
Terrible photos listed by estate agents/realtors that are so bad they’re funny.
Posting guidelines.
Posts in this community must be of property (inside or out) listed for sale which contains a terrible element. “Terrible” can refer to:
-
the photo itself (finger over the lens, too far away, people in the shot, bad Photoshop, etc.)
-
the property (weird layout, questionable plumbing, unsound structure, etc.)
-
the interior (carpeted bathrooms, awful taste interiors, weird mannequins/taxidermies/art, inflatable pools indoors, etc.)
-
the actual listing itself including unusual descriptions and unrealistic pricing. However, this isn’t a community to discuss the housing market in general. This is a comedic community - let’s keep it light.
-
Photos can be sourced from anywhere and be any age, but please check they haven’t already been posted.
-
Censor any names/contact details of private individuals.
-
Mark the post NSFW if it includes nudity or sensitive content
Rules.
This community follows the rules of the feddit.uk instance and the lemmy.org code of conduct. I’ve summarised them here:
- Be civil, remember the human.
- No insulting or harassing other members. That includes name-calling.
- Respect differences of opinion. Civil discussion/debate is fine, arguing is not. Criticise ideas, not people.
- Keep unrequested/unstructured critique to a minimum.
- Remember we have all chosen to be here voluntarily. Respect the spent time and effort people have spent creating posts in order to share something they find amusing with you.
- Swearing in general is fine, swearing to insult another commenter isn’t.
- No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia or any other type of bigotry.
- No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.

That house is really far away from anything, don't trust your instincts about distance when looking at the map that country is massive.
Val-des-Sources is 10 minutes away and has all services that are missing from Wotton itself except for an hospital which is 40 minutes away in Sherbrooke but there are CLSCs closer than that.
That's a feature.
Sure, I'm myself planning on being in a place like that, in Quebec, eventually. Just saying that's the reason it's cheap, not because it's Quebec. I'm sure you can get similar prices in bum-fuck nowhere in whales or the Highlands or something.
I live in British Columbia, that property would pull in probably $800,000 here. Even when I was in Alberta pre COVID that would have gotten probably $500,000.
As in, in similarly remote areas? If that's the case then I'll count myself lucky that it's Québec I'll likely move to next.
I am unsure how much land is coming with the house, but if it is acreage/hobby farm size it'd fetch a bit more probably, but it it is just a house that is part of some unincorporated area it'd be a bit less but the difference is significant going from western Canada to anything east of Alberta that isn't Ontario.
1 acre, close to a town and a village, 40 minutes away from a city of 200k+ citizens.
That sounds like heaven except for the needing a car side of that.
It looks like those criteria would make it too close to Vancouver to be less than 2 million for a 3 bed.
Vancouver = Montreal
Kelowna = Sherbrooke
Merritt = Val-des-Sources
So it's like living in a village somewhere between Merritt and Vancouver but very close to Merritt
I'm not going to give a definite yes to that, I'm a Northerner and it's a completely different world up here, but from what I can gather your assessment is pretty accurate.
