Real Actual Listing Photos: Picture in Picture Edition

Posted on November 20, 2013November 20, 2013 by The Tim

It’s time for another installment of Real Actual Listing Photos. Once a month (or so) I round up some of the most bizarre listing photos from around the Seattle area and post them here, with brief excerpts from the real actual listing description, and probably a bit of snarky commentary.

If you want to enjoy strange listing photos without interruption throughout the month check out Looney Listing. If you’ve got a nomination for a listing photo that should appear here, drop me a line.

No particular theme this month. Just enjoy a collection of odd listing photos found by readers and yours truly.

Enough explanation. Let’s get to the photos! Click the photo to view the Real Actual Listing.

15427 170th Ave SE, Monroe, WA 98272“Upper levels boast ‘Walnut hardwood floors’ throughout.”

Crookec, poor lighting, distracting TV… This is what’s called really earning the commission.

439 SW Lake Sammamish Pkwy SE, Bellevue, WA 98006“Capture the spirit of innovation by Calico Studio.”

You weren’t expecting to see an actual photo of the imaginary 1.15 million dollar home were you? Hah!

2501 SW Dakota St, Seattle, WA 98106“Experience one of the most unique homes around”

Lens flare: Not just for J.J. Abrams movies!

7002 S 125th St, Seattle, WA 98178“…just right for someone who likes to soak up the sun & dig in the dirt!”

It’s easy to understand how a photo like this could be accidentally taken. What’s hard to believe is that a listing agent would willingly choose to upload such a photo in an alleged attempt to sell a home.

6833 NE 191st St, Kenmore, WA 98028“Great location close to downtown kenmore”

The one and only photo of this home is a picture of an old framed black and white photo. Wow.

540 26th Ave S, Seattle, WA 98144“Three Floors of Space on this classic craftsman home”

Photo is shown actual size. I have no idea what I’m looking at here. Spotted by Marc.

Let me know if you have an idea for a future “Real Actual Listing Photos” theme, and be sure to check out Looney Listing for listing photo amusement throughout the month.
