Ugly House Photos

Imagine your dream kitchen here.

Imagine looking out the window onto a beautiful garden.

Imagine new wiring and new wall texture.

Imagine how nice this pedestal sink is.

Imagine yourself soaking in a hot bubble bath.

Imagine coming home every day.

Imagine the door of opportunity.

Imagine the coolness of the floor on your warm feet on a hot summer day.

They installed a new front door, but forgot the proper touch-up and detail work before putting the house up for sale.  Empty liquor bottle by the door?  Mr. Handyman passed out?

Sometimes it’s best to leave the repairs to the professionals.  Several bad repairs in a Mesa, Arizona home.

Let’s take a closer look at this fine repair job.  Sell it quick before it leaks again!!

They covered up the damaged ceiling (poorly) but did they fix the roof leak?

Another bad drywall patch job.

They “repaired” the patio ceiling too.

They gave up on this one.

It’s not often we find a home in this condition.  Hurry, before it’s gone.

The master bedroom.  Looks like the broom is covered in cobwebs.

Downstairs great room.  Not so great.

Upstairs living room.  Not much living going on there besides bacteria.

Upstairs bathroom.  Duct tape and plastic can fix anything.  And, yes, that’s dog shampoo.

Downstairs bathroom.  Toilet on the right.  Water jugs to help flush the toilet.

Check out the damaged window blinds below the sheet.

Winning.

Did an elephant walk in the attic?

Ceiling repair fail.

Not good.

Damaged garage ceiling.  Thanks, sellers, for leaving all these repairs for the buyers.

This photo’s caption reads, “stain from broken whirlybird.” (they mean the spinning attic vent).  So if it’s broken, why not fix it??!!!

American Horror Story is a macabre TV show on FX on Wednesdays.  It centers around a haunted house and its current and past living or dead owners.

This home in Glendale, Arizona was considered for the set.  A true fixer-upper.  They could afford the $60/month in DirecTV satellite service but not $60/month in repair supplies?

Years of neglect and lack of maintenance.  A damaged ceiling, for example.  How do you ignore that?

A bathroom in disrepair.

The shower needs a lot of help.

The shower pan is cracked.

The bathtub in the other bathroom is also damaged.  Terrible patch job.  Is that Bondo?

Dirty, damaged walls.

Look.  More ceiling damage.  Did they live in denial?

The patio roof is shot.  Even the repair patch is ruined.
