The Office TV show officially ended its run after 9 seasons. Should any of these offices be terminated due to clutter?
This Apache Junction, Arizona office features pizza slices. The books are piled so high, they are almost blocking the air conditioning vent. And as a bonus, we get to see the cat’s behind.

This Glendale, Arizona office hasn’t seen the light of day in many years. The owner would rather go fishing.

This Mesa, Arizona office is actually organized, but it’s still visually distracting.

An entertainment center is repurposed as a book shelf in this Wickenburg, Arizona home office.

Might have to put some items away before selling. Just a suggestion. Like lingerie and the fuzzy dice. Oh, and the stupid knotted curtain.

Refrigerator stuff, chili peppers, Mickey Mouse, plates, extra stuff on top of the microwave, etc. Why is the microwave so high?

The Mardi Gras masks and the assorted clutter on the counters.

You’ll see in the next photos that the house appears to be clean, but the photos don’t do any justice. Too many visual distractions in each photo.

Organized but…

More unnecessary stuff.

Proper lighting helps.

Your eyes don’t know where to go when there are distractions.

The collectibles keep your eyes from noticing the faux rolled paint.

Maybe it’s the angle of the photo?

Foil in the windows. Different types of window coverings. An unnecessary hat dead center in the photo.

Random shoes, dusty fan, more foil.

Big blue plastic flower and other distractions in the office.

Visual clutter outside.

Sounds like we’re being really picky, but when you add all of the photos together, it gets confusing to buyers. What do you remember about the house?

Attention to detail needed.

Some home staging can be so exact and minimalistic that it comes across as cold, sterile, and fake. These sellers decided against that staging technique.
In the office, they went for the rooted-in look.

In this room, they went for a versatile look. It’s a bedroom, it’s a storage room, it’s a …

In the living room, they went for the night look…

…AND the day look! It shows off the room’s different personalities.

In the bedroom, they wanted to show how much room there is for hoarding.

Warm kitchen.

Bright kitchen.

Need shelves in your bathroom for toiletries? Remove the drywall and use the noggings as shelves!!

They wanted to emphasize that the garage can be a multi-purpose room.

You can never have too many hangers.

Dead tree out front? Perfect for Halloween.

Somewhere in Pennsville, New Jersey lurks a monster so hideous and despised, his only source of nutrition is picking his nose. He is often accompanied by his evil consort, The Mad Hopper, the sinister cousin of the Easter Bunny.

He was last spotted hiding out in this home, blending in with the clutter and collections. And dusty TV.

There sure are a lot of things to be packed up when moving (and preferably before selling).

They heard it’s a good idea to keep all records of their house. Unfortunately, they misunderstood it. Now they have a massive music record collection. They forgot to dust around the computer monitor.

Colorful wallpaper pattern at the foyer.

Can’t you see he’s playing Solitaire on the computer?! He doesn’t have time to clean up the office. Give him a break! Home selling is stressful enough!
