Real estate agents are often asked to present the less-than-desirable in the best possible light. The result of this effort can be strange home decor photos\u2014photos where furniture seems out of place or the subject matter of the photograph just doesn’t seem right. Here are seven examples of misplaced, mismatched and ill-fitting furniture and odd decor choices that were used to stage a home for sale. We are positive that the final result of these MLS listing<\/a> photos was a simple: No deal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Dressing up the Basement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Clearly, this tiny table and chairs look very out of place in a basement. Very, very out of place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Artistic Shot of a Wheelchair<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not sure what the listing agent was thinking when he or she uploaded this photo of a wheelchair in front of an old, wooden window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Oversized Kitchen Island<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While this family may have enjoyed the eat-in comfort of this kitchen island, the listing photo makes the island appear to be too large for the room. Of course, it doesn\u2019t help that the homeowners opted to pose for the photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Now, Where\u2019s Rudolph?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Looks like Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen are all here, but where\u2019s Rudolph? There\u2019s nothing wrong with a hobby, but when it comes time to sell you might want to deer-personalize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Pretty as a Peacock?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s one tight-fitting bed space. The peacock-inspired wallpaper certainly doesn\u2019t help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. The Perfect View<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It appears this homeowner didn\u2019t quite know where to put those extra chairs. The result is a bedside view that makes the room look cramped and leaving would-be buyers uneasy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Cosy Reading Nook<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While it\u2019s always a good idea to list a house with furniture\u2014as this helps prospective buyers imagine the space\u2014this use of a tiny couch and table gives the impression of a not-so-impressive living room space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember, the fastest way to sell your house is to post flattering photographs of your home, using furniture and features that fit the room\u2019s use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
