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
Rules.
This community follows the rules of the feddit.uk instance and the lemmy.org code of conduct. I’ve summarised them here:
- Be civil, remember the human.
- No insulting or harassing other members. That includes name-calling.
- Respect differences of opinion. Civil discussion/debate is fine, arguing is not. Criticise ideas, not people.
- Keep unrequested/unstructured critique to a minimum.
- Remember we have all chosen to be here voluntarily. Respect the spent time and effort people have spent creating posts in order to share something they find amusing with you.
- Swearing in general is fine, swearing to insult another commenter isn’t.
- No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia or any other type of bigotry.
- No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.

For those who don't know, the phrase "let them eat cake" is commonly attributed to Marie Antoinette, the Queen of France in the late 18th century. However, there's no concrete evidence she actually said this. The phrase is used to portray her as out of touch with the suffering of the French people during a time of widespread poverty and famine.
Having the phrase "let them eat cake" in a super luxurious house is incredibly insensitive because it symbolizes a callous disregard for the struggles of those less fortunate. It's a reminder of the kind of detachment and insensitivity that can perpetuate social inequalities and exacerbate class divides, which is particularly tone-deaf in a setting of opulence.
I'm gonna say they probably just think it sounds cool and have no idea what it actually means
Nah they definitely know and are using it to flaunt their wealth over us poors
One of you is right.
Isn't that a bit pointless as is poors only get to see it via an estate agent photo?
It's still shite though.
No, the rich people around the dinner table use it to justify their superiority over the rest of us while they're eating.
Generally when something can be explained due to stupidity or maleficence, stupidity is usually the culprit.
Given that this quote is related an historical myth, I think this stupidity is way more likely.
Stupid, but still insensitive.
What if the homeowner openly and confidently enjoys the struggles of the less fortunate?
They might be a cake maker
They probably use a TON of fondant. Ewwe
It's not tone deaf. They know exactly what they're doing. That's the tone they want.
