Everyone, if you are having photos taken of your house

[Chicchicchicchiclana]

for Estate Agent pictures, Air BnB, Instagram, Holiday rentals, anything really ...

1. don't leave your manky old oven gloves and tea towel hanging from the handle of the oven door

1. put the loo seat down

Feel free to add any others

Don't set up the dining table with your best plates and glasses as if you're expecting guests. It just looks silly.

Don't put a glass and bottle of wine on your outside table - very naff.

Hide the wheelie bins.

Remove clutter if possible. Always puts me off.

I'll see your tea towel and oven glove and raise you rubber gloves for washing up! I always forget these in my photos!😬😆

Yes to hide the wheelie bins!

Also, don't have your car on the drive for the exterior picture.

Make the bed!!

Don't line up your cleaning products on the bathroom window cill. Ever.

Hide the wheelie bins.

eh ?
Why ?

Do agree with @PaulinePetrovaPosey

Take half the crap off your kitchen counters and hide it in the cupboards. Then take half of what’s left and do the same again.

Make your sodding beds!!

Check under your coffee tables and sofa of rubbish- camera angles can see what you normally don’t.

Tidy up the toys and shampoo bottles from the bathtub.

Pick up the dog shit from your garden.

Open your curtains.

In the show homes they always have the table laid.

Take the dirty dishes out of your sink and put them in a cupboard. Or just bloody wash them and put them away. Don’t leave them on the draining board.

Make sure light bulbs are all working.

Take down the sex swing

Why NOT hide the wheelie bins? They're hardly attractive and, conveniently, have wheels which make it so easy to wheel them out of shot.

DO hide a stunt pineapple in as many rooms as possible then post the link here so we can try to spot them all.

Don't have photos taken when your Christmas decorations are up - they'll look extremely old by January.

Check what you can see in the mirrors.
Nothing under beds or on top of cupboards.
Unplug appliances and hide plugs behind them, absolutely no cables or extensions in view

Don't leave the ironing board up with a basket full ifnironing next to it.

Get a storage box, stick all the crap in it and put it in the boot of car
Useful for viewings too

Hide your pet food bowls

Pull the curtains back neatly and straighten wonky blinds.
Fluff up duvet and pillows.

Plastic tablecloths, especially in the dining room, I’m embarrassed for you and smooth down the bed covers. Who wants to see a bed that looks like the dog jumped all over it. I’ve even seen the hoover sitting in the corner of the room.

Take down the naff words in the wall.....
You know:
HOME
SLEEP
BATH
HAPPINESS
FAMILY

really????

But it is the HOUSE you are buying, not the contents.
