Viking and Subzero Appliances cannot fully compensate for a messy home

The pant leg hanging out is a nice touch for this terribly staged laundry area. Yesterday one of the houses I showed advertised a high end kitchen with Viking and Subzero Appliances. It also had 42″ kitchen cabinets and granite countertops which were very nice.

However, what my buyers and I will remember the most about the home was the basement. The moment we reached it we all noticed the less than desirable smell. Worse than that was the mess in the laundry area, crawl space and one of the rooms. They needed serious cleaning and junk removal.

Shown left is the laundry area. The photography isn’t the best since I took it with my cell phone instead of my regular camera, but you get the idea. The pant leg hanging out of the dryer is an especially nice touch don’t you think? :)
