Ugly House Photos

Foreclosure fixer-upper in Phoenix.  Needs a lot of work.  How does a bathtub get cracked like that?!

The other bathroom has flooring issues, an ugly vanity, a rusty shower drain, & an overall outdated feel.

Before foreclosure, the owners started a remodeling project.  But for some reason, there are no doors leading out to the back yard.  You must go out front and around the house to get back.  Huge turn-off to buyers.
Here we see an ugly fireplace.  They added a wall to the left which blocks the fireplace.  On the right, any exit to the back was covered up.  The ugly carpet in this room and others is coated in clumps of cat fur.

The doorway in the photo above leads to this delightful unfinished bedroom.

A kitchen window to the back yard would have been nice but they blocked it.  The master bedroom has no windows at all.

Vandals broke into this foreclosure home and sprayed graffiti all over.

Broken glass in a rusty bathroom window.

Stolen bathroom vanity because it’s worth at least $20 by golly.

Different stages of a home’s life from 2006, 2008, & 2009.

Parking on the front yard in 2008 when trying to sell the house.  Unsuccessfully.  Wonder why.

Here’s how the front yard looked like in 2006 when it successfully sold.

The house went into foreclosure in 2009 and was vandalized.

Here’s how it looked in 2006.

More graffiti from 2009.

Some people have no respect.

Graffiti on a bedroom wall.  The house was foreclosed.  It’s all the bank’s fault.

That’s what was spray painted on the garage wall:  They hit me with a truck!

Another house with random messages written on the bedroom wall.  Is this the serial killer’s girlfriend from our recent post?

What happened to the bathroom cabinet?

The house was built in 1961.  Freestanding fireplace.  The wood laminate flooring installation was not completed.

A bunch of ne’er-do-wells thought it would be fun to destroy this Houston home with graffiti.  Either they are poor spellers or they belong to a Buddhist Zen group called fuke, a flute-playing school of Zen in Japan.  Learn more about fuke zen here.  “Kill yo mom” doesn’t seem very zen, does it?

Another Houston, Texas home damaged by graffiti.

People did live here.  They probably built this shack house by hand, and it shows.  Did a giant rat chew a hole in the bottom right?  Broken glass below the window.

Plywood walls.  Graffiti.  Is this home beyond repair?

The bathroom has some ceiling issues.  There’s also a mirror across from the toilet so you can watch yourself while sitting.  [Remember the recent post with the mirror over the toilet.  Which one is worse considering the action taken?]

The kitchen.

The living room.

The caption for this photo reads, “Unstable flooring.”  How about unstable walls?
