Sidewalk for sale, house included

Sidewalk for sale, house included

This morning I was searching for a house for sale on the north side of Chicago for some clients who want to move up to a larger home. Shown left is the exterior photo for one of the houses I came across. The home has a nice new sidewalk, but I do think the house should be more prominent in the photo. :)

Possible explanations:
Photographer has a spine condition
House is too hideous to show
Sidewalk is best feature

Thanks for your explanations, Aaron! :) Based on the other photos (most which were shot at the same angle), the sidewalk may be the star here!

Always catching those crummy photos… mentioned this post in a blog post about terrible MLS photos. Thanks!
