If you've ever sold, bought, or rented property, you know what a big deal the very first impression is. One step in through the door, and you’ll feel the vibe right away. I mean, a lone sock laying on the ground is forgivable, but a shady mattress, crumbling ceiling, and some questionable shade of paint is enough to make any potential buyer run away.
So you’d think that real estate agents would surely be nailing their property adverts with immaculate pics. You’re wrong. The blog “Terrible Real Estate Agent Photos,” which collects all the bad, the ugly, and the hecking nightmares of real estate pics, is hard evidence that some agents couldn’t care less.
From filthy interiors, prison-type rooms, and trashy décor to unidentifiable objects that send chills down the spine, these are the best of the very worst real estate photos. Immerse yourself in the sea of low standards and be sure to check our previous part 1 and part 2.

Bored Panda reached out to Andy, the creator behind the internet’s beloved “Terrible Real Estate Agent Photos” project, to find out whether the pandemic has had an effect on terrible property pics.
It turns out, the viral pandemic has probably improved the quality of some real estate photography, said Andy, “as there are fewer properties for sale, and therefore more time to get this stuff right.”
Luckily, all the fans of terrible real estate photos can be sure the terrible source is not likely to deplete any time soon. “The universal human instinct for ineptitude has prevailed, so we still regularly receive more than enough terrible examples to share.”
As the foliage grew in strength and numbers, the cushions made plans to reclaim the ground floor on behalf of all the soft furnishings.
The level of professionalism is definitely improving, and Andy is suspecting his blog may be to blame. “There are fewer accidental mirror selfies and photographer thumbshots.” However, the progress is slow and the creator believes there’s much work to be done in that department.
It seems that terrible property pics are now getting well-earned recognition after Andy exhibited some of the worst examples from “Terrible Real Estate Agent Photos” at the Hamburg Triennial of Photography last year. “We're pleased to have our work finally recognized as the great art it is, and we now have around 300,000 followers in total across all platforms.”
The website itself received its 15,000,000th visitor a few weeks ago. Andy said he’s happy to confirm that “COVID-19 appears only to have increased people's appetite for low-quality photography and sarcastic sentiment.”

In a really cool apartment, this would look funky and fun. In this place the first thing I wonder is just how bad the ceiling leak is.

I remember this house. It's featured in Bored Panda before. It has a room that looks like the interior of a space shuttle

What is wrong with this one? I personally don't like those "live, love, laugh" style writings, but lots of people love them
Is it that the pipe access to the tub is up against the exterior side of the house and it would be hard to access it???

I have hated this decoration since I first saw it—-about 20 years ago. Maybe more.
I don't get this one. This one is way nicer than the one with the toilet in the closet.

This is funny, but at my new place they showed photos that the agent said were "really bad." I actually appreciated the honesty. I don't like fake lighting, creative angles, etc. when it comes to housing. Show me what it's really like. I'll find out anyway.
I hate it when they use fisheye effects so the whole room looks bigger and slightly curved, or they HDR the photos so much that the house looks like it’s located in a mystical realm of elves.

I live in a trailer parked under a pole barn that we've enclosed with walls all around. When I first married, the kitchen had a dirt floor with no walls at all. Built of job site scraps my carpenter husband brings home, it's funky but comfortable, and sure keeps the snobs away.
My first guess was they were trying to keep a pet from jumping on the bed.

I followed the webside for years but then it got really quiet for a long time. I'm glad to see it being revived. The photos are already great, but I truly love the sarcastic comments.
Photo captions from hell! Read some of the most cringe worthy and childish attempts at humor and sarcasm aimed at other people's attempts of being original, their poverty, frustration and in some instances, bad taste. To summarize, downvoteeeeeeeeeee
