Terrible Estate Agent Photos
Terrible photos listed by estate agents/realtors that are so bad they’re funny.
Posting guidelines.
Posts in this community must be of property (inside or out) listed for sale which contains a terrible element. “Terrible” can refer to:
-
the photo itself (finger over the lens, too far away, people in the shot, bad Photoshop, etc.)
-
the property (weird layout, questionable plumbing, unsound structure, etc.)
-
the interior (carpeted bathrooms, awful taste interiors, weird mannequins/taxidermies/art, inflatable pools indoors, etc.)
-
the actual listing itself including unusual descriptions and unrealistic pricing. However, this isn’t a community to discuss the housing market in general. This is a comedic community - let’s keep it light.
-
Photos can be sourced from anywhere and be any age, but please check they haven’t already been posted.
-
Censor any names/contact details of private individuals.
-
Mark the post NSFW if it includes nudity or sensitive content

If you really hate someone who lives in one of those six houses, this lot affords you many opportunities for mischief.
I can’t imagine any other reason for this to exist.
Most places near me require you to give access to your neighbor to their own property, so if you had a lot like this you would still need to let them have access to their back yard via your chaos strip.
My understanding is that this only applies if there's no other way for the neighbor to access their own property. If the property owners can access their property from any other way (for example, from the city streets), there's no obligation for a landowner who owns the back of the property to allow them to have a second access point.
Does my backyard neighbor owe me the right to cut across his back yard to access mine? No. I have a driveway that connects to a city street.
On the chaos angle, I'd imagine that some of those homes have built backyard gates that allow them direct private access to that park. If someone were to buy up that strip they could cut that off and basically extort each homeowner for access. It's possible that the homeowners could claim some sort of "I've used this land for 20 years for access to the park argument," but that would involve individual claims, expense, and a general PITA legal mess. And depending on the locality, it may require you to prove that you've done improvements to the property and a whole host of other PITA things.
Best case for those homeowners is to pay a couple of thousand each to buy the lot and come to an agreement among themselves on subdivision and/or collective maintenance and access rights.
That's exactly what I would do - Get the neighbors to chip in and buy the lot to parcel up and add to our yards.
