I've been viewing a few properties based on Internet searches and Estate Agents PDF brochures. Visited one place today that looked well cared for with neat beds in every room, tasteful furniture and abstract art. The reality was a musty, dirty house that hadn't been lived in for probably a year with worn carpets. The Estate Agent pointed to a paragraph on the brochure that said the images were not representative and had been 'virtually staged'. Every stick of furniture, every wall hanging or picture, every side table and lamp was artificially generated and set into the images of the empty rooms. Frankly I felt cheated as I would not have gone to see the property had it been portrayed realistically - is this common practice now? DGP
