Remember "Jane" magazine "make unders"?

Where they would take a pretty but way over-done girl, tone down the makeup and claw bangs, and she would look much better?
This house is a candidate.
But the pool and hot tub are awesome...

Damn, I miss that magazine. It was great.

The red bathroom is gross...

From the outside, it is gorgeous. Heck, the inside has great "bones" and just think how much better that house will look like with all that STUFF gone.

This house would look better naked! Agree!

It must be owned now by an older, 60ish couple who have been doing upgrades on this house for two years now. They just wrote the checks and told their contractor to upgrade every single thing.

Ive been busily writing many of the snarky stories about kids' names...can you tell?

Holy crap that house is loud. I think it's got Real Housewives of Jersey written all over it.

PP here. I got worn out b/c I only heard back from 1/4 of the people I profiled.

But back to the house. This home should be shown vacant. Really. Have the owners move out, possibly paint every wall a soothing light caramel, bake some bread or cookies and done! Saved everyone time and money!

I hate that every home now has to be staged. I bought 10 years ago and our now house was a cluttered mess. I had to use my imagination and truly, once the HO moved out, I had a clean slate. Either we improved/updated/changed immediately or we learned to live with it for a while. Our house immediately looked amazing and spacious once it the prior HO left...I just paid to have it deep cleaned and the rest was up to me.

It's under contract so it doesn't matter what you think since someone else wants it.

Well, no one cares what YOU think, so there.

And, you're weird. This is a forum, doofus.

What a sunny disposition you have. Have a lovely day.

Do you know that she has an online magazine - www.xojane.com?

It's a nightmare. Like Jane Pratt flushed her reputation down the toilet.

The house we just bought was not staged at all but I snapped it up in a second. Dog poop in the backyard, laundry all over the place, a garage that the inspector could barely inspect because it was so stuffed, Dirty shoes next to the treadmill, TONS of oversized furniture, Carpets that haven't been vacuumed let alone steamed (but have hardwoods underneath!!!) Country flair, Dated curtains- check all those boxes. When we close in two weeks, it will look 10 times larger since all the crap will be cleared out. You've got to look at the bones- location-potential.

I actually like most of the house, except that red tiled bathroom.
