 Re: Detrimental Listing Photos
Not that an agent would have taken better pictures, but that one is a FSBO. If it had been an agent, they'd have talked about the "dreamlike" quality of the home, and when asked about it, they might say " Can't remember, it was all a blur."

Impressionist Photography is the latest craze. Doesn't this one belong in over price listing of shame too? Currently listed: $1.5 million sold in 1999: $410K Tax Assest value: about $1.1 Million.

 Re: Detrimental Listing Photos
Out of focus, pictures of people...fish?! I'm starting to think agents just upload whatever photos are in their cameras for these listings and don't give it a second thought. Earning their 6% for sure.

 Re: Detrimental Listing Photos
The out of focus pictures are from a For Sale By Owner listing, so you can't blame agents for everything. Most everything, yes, but not everything everything.

I don't consider a stocked trout pond to be fishing.  Most lake fishing in Washington is from stocked fish. Only difference here is location I would say.

That's a pretty good sized rainbow. He's been around a few seasons.

 Re: Detrimental Listing Photos
Actually, I believe most fish stocked by the Hi-Lakers in Washington (which includes most stocked alpine lakes in the state) last their natural lifespan, but they don't reproduce.
