and this is advertised as a 'nice garden'

Well, it could be a nice garden for an owner-occupier, but this is being rented out. A tenant would be foolish to spend the required money to get that to be a "nice garden", so unfair to describe it as such in a rental advert.0

Doesn't that assume that any possible renter doesn't look at the photo of the garden?0 -
You'd be better off complaining about how old the pictures are.betterlatethannever wrote: »This is what angers me about rentals/agents.:( how dare they advertise this as such.
Also nice garden to the rear. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the

Can anyone here describe this as a 'nice garden'?
If you look at streetview you will see that the house next door has had new windows and doors fitted compared to the pictures they have used. That had happened by October 2014, and judging by the lack of shrubbery in the front garden I would suspect the photos were taken quite some time before that.
Far be it for me to defend Estate Agent's blurb but it is more than possible that if you went to view this house you would find a very nice garden to the rear, it all depends on what the previous tenants did with it.
SPCome on people, it's not difficult: lose means to be unable to find, loose means not being fixed in place. So if you have a hole in your pocket you might lose your loose change.0 -
At least most agents have the sense to not include a picture when their description is so out of whack with reality!0

Fork over the earth, add some grass seed and it would indeed be... OK for that kind of terrace.
Having had to visit relatives in Blackpool when younger, it's also... a beautiful garden compared to what I'm used to!0 -
Well, it's about 10 times nicer and 4 times bigger than my current rear garden - I'd be pretty chuffed to have it. Shed looks pretty rough though.0

It's nice if moving from a third floor flat.It's nothing , not nothink.0

'Nice' compared to the agent's own? LOL0
