Dirty Florence, Arizona home. Your eyes are drawn more toward the dirty door than the gaping hole in the ceiling.

Washing hands was not a priority.

Why are there splash marks on the left wall?

Sometimes houses look like human faces. Homes built in the 1990s oftentimes had garages out front (the mouth) with two bedrooms & windows above (the eyes). Here are two Peoria, Arizona homes.

Hoodlums had a field day in this house, splashing paint all over.

And took their anger out on the wall too.

Why is there a gorilla in this Tolleson, Arizona back yard? And junk too.

It sure looks like a gorilla. Will buyers go ape for this house?

Why is there a photo of a 2-year-old citrus tree, garbage cans, a saw, and a prickly pear cactus? It shows potential for this part of the yard? Seems kinda random. Phoenix back yard.

Why is there a photo of a rickety fence, piles of concrete pieces, a palm tree trunk, and the photographer’s shadow? Glendale, Arizona back yard.

The world will be a better place with more peace and booze. These Tempe, Arizona sellers are living proof. 80 proof, that is.
Peace, man.

Smirnoff Vodka!

Alaskan Amber Beer neon sign in the kitchen.

Red Stripe Beer posters (framed!) in the kitchen. Just add a beer tap to the frig and make it a kegerator. [if this is a college student rental house, the tenants are sure tidy.]

Sellers can’t seem to leave their fireplaces alone. Gotta add stuff all around the fireplace.

Items placed there with care and then never dusted since.

Visual distractions everywhere.

Home is where the hearth is.

If you run out of firewood, you can always burn books to keep warm.

Weapons aren’t always used for killing. They can be romantic too.
Cupid’s arrow for your beau (bow).

I’d die by the sword for you.

Shotgun wedding.

New trend in floor tile patterns is complicated but concentrated. Mix a bunch of different sized tiles in a small area.

Another trend in floor tile patterns is using geometric shapes (octagon and hexagon) as accent pieces.

All kidding aside, they make floor tile nowadays that looks like wood planks. From a Tempe, Arizona remodeled home.

We give this Yuma, Arizona home a 3 out of 10. Three fan blades. And lots of wear and tear.

This ceiling fan has no blades.

Sad kitchen.
