  • $1900 for van ness? this blog has been having the worst rental options recently.

  • People take the worst pictures of their properties – we recently became landlords and I hired a photographer (a friend) and she took excellent pictures of my apartment, which made the difference between a few good applications and a lot of good applications.

    If you shell out $200, you own the pictures of your unit to use for the future and it’s a business expense. I don’t understand why you wouldn’t want your property to look its best, especially if you’re trying to find someone who will pay $1900/mo. If I were renting, it would be a red flag that you skimp on details.

    • Agreed. I personally love how all the photos are deliberately taken to hide whatever the floor is. Carpet? Wood? Parquet? You don’t know! Take a guess!

      Yeah, these pics look like ads for selling the furniture, not the apartment. Zoom out a little! No one cares about the couch or the dresser or the new box of plates on the counter. There are no pics of the closet space or W/D. Plus, there is window A/C. Not worth $1900!

^yes. The only danger at this location is being run over by a motorist from Maryland.

Faison's writeups make me crazy. And not in a good "I'm crazy for buying this house!" way.

The Dancing Crab's commercials have to be the worst I've ever seen. The owners saying,...

Happy 40th Anniversary Dancing Crab!
