Here’s our Picture of the Week, which comes courtesy of Twitter.
Which agents, asked CourtneyEA, need to worry about Purplebricks when it uses photographs like this?
The picture certainly looks more like a project for Groundforce or possibly a prison exercise yard than a property’s finest feature.
However, as you can see from the tweets, the criticism was picked up by Purplebricks.
It will be interesting to see whether the al fresco has now disappeared!

Don’t mock, think of the potential; as an obvious blank canvass for urban art with a modest Banksy that could be worth a small fortune.
What do you want? The Hanging Gardens of Babylon? I agree their photos rarely make the grade but to not show the ‘garden’ would be doing the vendor a disservice if outside space is at a premium in their area and therefore a key selling point. Any excuse for a bit of on-line agent bashing.
Fair piont, but I actually think the internals are worse.
But you can probably take a more inspiring angle (corner to corner, not straight on).
You can also use editing software to enhance the picture (this is free).
Its just lazy pictures, somebody going through the motions as opposed to really marketing a property.
Hilarious that the photo still hasn’t been removed.
One only hopes that, despite the publicity we all give it, they don’t catch on and remedy this. All the while this remains the case, mainstream estate agents are better able to differentiate themselves.
Pay peanuts get monkeys.
So many poor photos. Absolute laziness and lack of pride in your job and you call yourselves property experts.
according to yesterdays article more and more estate agents are wanting jobs in the online sector.
At least we’ve all got nothing to worry about if this is the standard of agents they pick up. 🙂
