This could be a real deal – if it were true! But alas, these two homes in the Kokomo area are not for sale as a package deal. And the car isn’t included in the sale either.

The listing agent just got a little careless when taking this picture. Sometimes it’s difficult to avoid cars in photos. And sometimes, if a house is on a narrow lot, it’s difficult to avoid getting part of the neighboring houses in photos.

But with this house, it appears there isn’t a close neighbor to the right. A better picture might have been from the left of the house – about where the front of that parked car is. If that didn’t work, the agent could have “cropped” the picture before uploading it to the MLS. By cropping the picture, most of the neighbor’s house and all of the street and car could have been eliminated.

Here’s an example of the same picture cropped. (Cropping should be done on the original, not on the one above that was resized for MLS.)

Now it’s your turn!

When you come across any “fabulous” or “not-so-fabulous” pictures in the MLS, email me the MLS number or the address of the property! It doesn’t matter if the house is in Kokomo or the surrounding areas, as long as it is in the Central Indiana MLS (CIRMLS) I can find it. Who knows, I may feature your suggestion in Photo Friday !

Here a couple of Photo Friday pictures that have me scratching my head. Don’t get me wrong, these pictures of a kitchen in a home for sale in the Kokomo area are not bad. The kitchen looks very nice. It has been depersonalized and well staged to show off its great features.

Take a look. See if you can tell what has me puzzled…

Does the “color scheme” seem odd to you? I know it’s the same kitchen. But something must be going on with the lighting or the camera. Does a tanish-grey kitchen turn green in certain light or does a green kitchen turn tanish-grey?

What do you think is going on here? Help solve the mystery, leave a comment below!

Over a century ago Rudyard Kipling wrote a series of stories about life in the jungles of India. These stories were eventually compiled into what became The Jungle Book. Years later Disney Studios created an animated version. Today we have a completely new version of The Jungle Book in the form of a still-life photo of a home for sale in the Kokomo area.

Welcome to your new home, complete with a mature-jungle habitat in the lovely Victorian drawing room. With an acceptable offer, the seller will include the state of the art insect control device seen on the doorjamb at the right.

Step right up and get your own personal jungle while you can!
