Looks like Grandpa fell asleep next to the jukebox again. “Wake up, Grandpa! We’ve got people coming to look at the house!” He can snooze through just about anything. When the real estate agent stopped by to take photos, he never even moved.
Now if we can just get Grandma and Aunt Madge to stop gabbing and clear out, too, we can start the Open House!
How would you caption this real estate listing? (Thanks to Nester for finding this one!)

That is one of the most hideous things I’ve EVER seen! {cringes}

PLEASE tell me that was a joke! Now this needs to come back to haunt the real estate agent who authorized these photos and took money from someone for that listing. Even the photoshopped nachos were better!
Arsenic and Old Lace!
hahaha love this one!
I personally thought that when they begin de-cluttering the house FOR the open house, they can remove the senior citizens as well

OMG! When I first saw the pics the first thing that popped into my head was…..it looks like a play house on steriods or a big girl tea party with dolls sitting around the table! Makes you wonder who lives there doesn’t it?

“Over the River and Through the Woods to Grandfather’s house we go”. That’s one of the first things that came to my mind when I first looked at these photos. What a creepy house!
MLS Disclosure: Three people have recently passed away in this home.
Sweetness Overload Detectors have been installed in every room.
Good grief! Can’t see the house for the clutter.
OMG is that bad!
Who would do that?

I can’t even get past all of the STUFF to take in what the house looks like. The creepy dolls just make the decor come together and pop.
For sale: your worst nightmare
Has to be a joke. The “grandpa” looks real, but the women look like wax figures.
I guess the realtor also forgot to tell them the most important thing: declutter!
.-= Ms. Pearl´s last blog ..Probably the last =-.
I don’t which is creepier…the doll “people” or the decor!
Caption: “Grandma and Aunt Madge would just laugh and laugh as they enjoyed their afternoon tea, with Grandpa dozing off patiently nearby, waiting to take Grandma home, his breathing belabored by the pants he had secured too tightly around his diaphragm.”
“Madame Tussauds branches out to residential work.”
Creepy!!!!

That could actually be a great house (with a little decluttering and some carpet removal). Well, that and corpse removal.
But I do love the built-in in the dining room. Just trying to see past the creepyness!

Creepy creepy creppy…real or fake still creepy!!!!!!
Thought for a second that this was actually a corner in an antique store. Had to look 2x to see the kitchen cabinets! WHAT was this realtor thinking??? Whoever buys it may have nightmares of their walkthru.
too funny… was grandpa real??? as a professional organizer, i was ready to roll up my sleeves and start decluttering.
What on earth…???? Looks like home staging has hit a new low.

Even without the creepy dolls, this house is a disaster! It’s like Hoarders, the Garish Victorian Episode.

I’m sure all those things are precious to someone, but, oh, my, it’s…something else. Hopefully someone can see past all the clutter to the home’s potential.
When my cousins had to help my aunt sell her house, they fought with her over the pink flamingos in the yard. Eventually they decided it was easier to let her have her way, so the flamingos stayed, but they were certain it lowered the price of the home!
This is one of those few times when I actually feel sorry for the listing agent. How do you tell clients, who obviously WANTED their house to look this way, that their house is weird? And where did they find that teal-green carpet?
.-= Heather´s last blog ..Heritage Turkeys =-.
Hmm… feel bad for the agent. Majorly creepy. Let’s see, I’d title it: Got Stuff? This is THE home for you!

yikes!
The aqua carpet hurts my eyes.
All I can say is: Why? Why? Why?
Why does a real estate agent think it will sell a house by having a couple of creepy dolls posing in the pictures? If this was my real estate agent, I would get myself another one pronto!

I’m thoroughly creeped out. Not only by the wax (?) people but by the Barney and Friends color scheme in this garish Victorian hot mess. There is a lot going on in these pictures!

My Buddy and me, Like to climb up a tree. My buddy and me, We’re the best friends that could be.
My Buddy, My Buddy, My Buddy and Me!”
Oh my gosh! I cannot stop laughing long enough to come up with a caption. Maybe something like “Where’s Grandpa” instead of Where’s Waldo!
Buy this house and you will never feel lonely.

This is obviously the mobile home of elderly people, who often like dolls and pretty things and often overdo it a bit, but it’s really nothing to laugh at. I blame the RE agent.
It was actually a real house in Alaska, and the owners had a huge portrait of themselves over the mantel (which I didn’t show). In the portrait, they look like they’re in their late ’40s, at most. Not what I expected!
The house has been taken off the market or I’d post the link. There were “interesting” things in every room!

Not only will you inherit the horrid decor but you’ll also get the relatives the current owners want to sell with the house! Get a new realtor, folks!
.-= Mindi´s last blog ..Girls Day =-.
I think the dolls are humorous more than creepy but DEFINITELY inappropriate. The house would be cute cleaned up without all of the clutter.
The house itself looks pretty from what I can see.
Declutter, declutter, declutter!
OH my gosh. This is too creepy!
I would caption this “real estate for dummies.”
