Ugly House Photos

It will take a buyer with a lot of patience and money to restore this Douglas, Arizona home.  Check out the roof!

The exterior will need help too.

The living room probably has lots of bacteria living there.  Did they ever clean the walls?

Another room in need of renovation.

Time for a new bathroom.

Here’s the kitchen.  Bon appetit!

Lots of scrubbing required.

Help.

Looking back the other direction.

This is the inside of the outhouse.

The photo’s caption reads, “Outcrop building.”  Barely standing up.  Use extreme caution when entering.

This one time…in band camp…we stored all of our equipment in the living room of our Mesa, Arizona home.

We’re amped up, but buyers aren’t, for some reason.

It’s hitting a sore note with buyers.

Note to self: don’t use that towel.

Dirty, neglected home in Casa Grande, Arizona.  It’s a good idea to change your air filters once a month.  Otherwise, dirt and dust spread around your house, as seen around the ceiling vent.

There is a lot of potential here.

The living room.

You’ll need to take a shower after taking a shower in this dirty bathroom.

The master bedroom.

Another bedroom.

Are there any clean walls in this house?

Buying a home is supposed to be the American dream.  The buyers of this home just got a nightmare.  The house had been in the family for years.  They refinanced in 1999 for $73,000.  They refinanced again in April 2006 for $140,000.  See if you can find $67,000 in home improvements anywhere in this house.  It sold recently, in this condition, as a short sale for $50,000.

Messy bedroom.

Is that a Twilight Eclipse movie poster?

Mom is very proud of her house.  And her chihuahua dog.  And the awesome paint job.

It was painted with careful attention to detail.

We’re not a fan of their decorating style.

It’s not looking any better from the opposite view.

Dirty bird cage.  Broken window patched up with plastic and duct tape.

Damaged wall.  From a large dog?

Damaged door.

The kitchen is in better shape than expected.

Two TVs.

We’ll look at the bathrooms next.
