Are my standards through the floor if I find that it looks half-ok?
Mine must be too because I didn’t think it was that bad either. It beats a flat share and you could make it look a lot nicer with not too much money.
It does look a bit shabby. But if it's up to code, insulated properly and has a bathroom I'd take it. I've seen worse "traditional" 1 room apartments for more money than that.
All of the Americans of Lemmy are in the comments saying they live in something way worse for way more money 🤷
as long as there's a separate bathroom and not just a big bucket in the driveway......
It's better than the street? Yes It's 550€/month good? Nope. For 250 I could see it maybe.... Of course it depens on location.
There are apartments in New York that look far worse.
For way more money lol
The problem is probably insulation tho. If its not in southern europe then have fun freezing to death in there during winter.
I’ve seen a lot worse for a lot more in St. Louis, this really is decent. Insulation probably sucks though
I've lived in a garage and it wasnt as beautifully appointed as this one. This is perfectly fine by comparison and not bad value
Depends where you're from, in France, where this ads come from, this is clearly bad value
Depends. Sounds like pretty good value for Paris, unfortunately.
It's old for sure
Terrible photos listed by estate agents/realtors that are so bad they’re funny.
Posting guidelines.
Posts in this community must be of property (inside or out) listed for sale which contains a terrible element. “Terrible” can refer to:
the photo itself (finger over the lens, too far away, people in the shot, bad Photoshop, etc.)
the property (weird layout, questionable plumbing, unsound structure, etc.)
the interior (carpeted bathrooms, awful taste interiors, weird mannequins/taxidermies/art, inflatable pools indoors, etc.)
the actual listing itself including unusual descriptions and unrealistic pricing. However, this isn’t a community to discuss the housing market in general. This is a comedic community - let’s keep it light.
Photos can be sourced from anywhere and be any age, but please check they haven’t already been posted.
Censor any names/contact details of private individuals.
Mark the post NSFW if it includes nudity or sensitive content
