Real estate photos are incredibly important when it comes to selling a home. Buyers are often unable to attend an in-person viewing, so they rely on photos to get a sense of the property.

As such, it's important that the photos are clear, aesthetically pleasing, and accurately portray the home. This means shooting photos at the right angles, with adequate lighting, and staging the home accordingly.

Professional real estate photographers will know how to capture the home to its fullest potential and make it more appealing to potential buyers. Good photos can make or break a sale, and many buyers won't even consider a listing without quality photos. Investing in a professional photographer is well.

Browsing the real estate market can be a fun and inspiring pastime, especially if you're looking to design or buy a home. However, some listings can be strangely off-putting or downright disastrous.

Fortunately for posterity, a Reddit group dedicated to collecting atrocious real estate listings has gathered the best of the worst for everyone to see. From horrendously mismatched tiles to toilets where they definitely don't belong, the group has it all.

So get comfortable and enjoy this collection of home design disasters and upvote your favorites.

Realtors who post idiotic images of properties can be confusing and downright frustrating. Many realtors use grainy, out-of-focus, or badly composed images that don’t accurately depict the property and can lead potential buyers to make false assumptions about the property.

Additionally, many realtors post images that are completely irrelevant to the property, such as pictures of a beach or tropical landscape, which makes it difficult to understand what kind of property is actually being presented.
