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.

There's a rug on the wall. I didn't think they know what a tapestry is.
Wall rugs are hung for two reasons:
Insulation, both for temperature and sound, back when other insulating materials were unavailable.
If a rug is particularly expensive, they are hung to prevent them from getting dirty, especially if the owner's feet get dirty from farmwork.
Wall rugs are a slav thing
Walls made of rugs are a nomad thing.
There were a fair amount of formerly nomadic people in the Soviet Union and I'm guessing there was some cultural exchange
VGH the nomad spirit
But I bet the acoustics are amazing
the soviet apartments typically had cinderblock walls with no insulation and drafty mortar gaps. the heating systems were centralized boilers which usually were not operational/operating.
Soundproofing and insulation.
