Ugly Circular Doorway

July 2nd, 2009 · No Comments

Remember this funny rounded doorway that looked like a letter “D” (from a post in June)?

We just found a complete circle version in another Phoenix home.  Shaped like an “O” - it makes you go “oh, no!”  The kitchen’s destroyed.  The window was broken.  Junk piled on the floor.

It’s hard to tell which room this is/was.

The front of the house.  Of course, this is a bank-owned home, listed at a whopping $14,900.  Strangely enough, agents are not allowed to see this house before giving proper notice (tenant rights) because supposedly there are renters living there now.  With no kitchen?

Wallpaper Mania

July 2nd, 2009 · No Comments

We don’t normally highlight manufactured homes since it’s usually like shooting fish in a barrel.  But this one stood out because of its wallpaper.  Let’s start in the bathroom.  Green carpet and a green ribbon complement the wallpaper.  The bathtub plumbing access panel is held up with packing tape.

Same wallpaper used in the second bathroom.

Same wallpaper in the kitchen.

Same wallpaper in the laundry room.  Cute little curtain too.

Oh, boy, we’ve got some crazy curtains in the living room.  Looks like they ran out of wallpaper for this room, thank goodness.

Signs of the Times

Two examples of big banners used to promote the sale of a house.  The first one is for a home in Mesa, Arizona.  This is the main photo.  We might be interested in it if we could see what it looked like first.

The open house banner really catches your eye.  Unless it’s an invitation to burglars and they’ve unlocked the doors.

Ugly Enclosed Carport

July 1st, 2009 · 1 Comment

The one-car carport was converted to a bedroom.  How many people sleep here?  Wall A/C unit.  Graffiti.  No windows.  Messy.

Mold & Mildew On the Ceiling

July 1st, 2009 · 1 Comment

The photo caption reads, “Room addition left unfinished.”  Must have had a water leak in the attic.  There is evidence of mold and mildew, ceiling damage, drywall damage, bad patch job, etc.  Run away, buyer, run.  Let a professional investor buy it and then hope he/she is honest enough to disclose this issue to the next buyer.

Really Ugly Room & Lots of Blue Paint

July 1st, 2009 · 1 Comment

The photo caption reads, “Back room.”  More like bad room.  Let’s hope the ugly black and red paint on the ceiling is just a bad paint job and not blood or mold.  That whole prison stripe mess on the right is a closet and upper storage.

Someone sure liked bright blue paint and green carpet.

Pink Shower Tile With Grass On It

July 1st, 2009 · 2 Comments

The pretty pink tile is pretty old.  Not sure why they would make tile with grass or cattails on it.  With a row of tiles missing, how will the new owner find replacement tile?

Ugly floor and ugly blanket over the window.

This is supposedly a workshop.  Why is there a gas can in the room?

Here’s more of that shower tile with the color fade.  Looks so pretty.

They attempted to sponge paint the bedroom.

At least the paint is even in this bedroom.

Live Jam Session Tonight

Houses for sale are promoted on hundreds of websites for thousands of buyers to view on the public domain.  Most homes only get one chance to impress buyers.

Will buyers be impressed by this real estate promotional photo of a band playing in the house?

Will buyers be impressed by the albino rat in a cage with a sailboat on top?
