I love you, you love me, you dun wasted 15 G’s
On a tricked out countertop with purple accent stone
That’s not gonna sell your home
I love purple or other weird colors/ features in houses. It means I can get the property with less competition as most buyers are afraid of basic renovations.
My house had shitty purple walls and weird space age looking chrome light fixtures everywhere. Took me a while two days after closing to paint and replace it all. I was the only person who had put an offer in.
Not sure about others but I like this color scheme
It’s a definite no from me. The color scheme and that floor, just no. The stove sticking out, also a definite no.
All the cupboards also seem abnormally shallow to me, as if large plates would not be able to fit in the hanging cupboards. But maybe my perspective is confused because of a larger stove than I’m used to.
For me, that entire kitchen would have to be replaced after buying. We don’t know what corners this house flipper cut though, I would not trust this place to be done well.
The colour scheme is ok and is even used a lot by brands, but it doesn’t work at all for this kitchen. I can’t believe the kitchen company even agreed to it. As in, I would imagine they’d warn them it’s gonna be f*ing ugly and only go through with it when they insist.
I kind of like it but I get exhausted looking at it for more than 5 minutes
I could… survive this layout.
But when selling a house, you want to appeal to as many as possible. And this kitchen does not have wide appeal.
And that need for wide appeal makes every house boring.
I would argue that there is many ways to preserve wider appeal w.o. it having to be boring.
Heck even in this kitchen if all that was wrong was the paint job, you can fix that in a weekend.
But it is the floor and working top, the shape of the cabinets, the poor tiling and walls, the mismatch of the cabinets and stove, the lack of appliance space, the lack of windows…
You can, but it requires more skill and more effort.
Skill and effort are often in high demand and low supply.
Cool AF for a place to visit.
Would not want to live there permanently. Is OP a wizard or something? Lol
Could have worked if the purple was SO MUCH DARKER but they went with probably the worst shade imaginable.
That or Baja Blast color. Hell coulda gone for the 90’s taco bell color scheme and it’d be fine
A pastel purple would have worked well too.
I was thinking a more toned down lavender would be good
Pastel might have been too washed out with the purple in the (marble/quartz) rock but anything would be an improvement from this. It looks like the color you’d find at a McDonald’s indoor slide.
fucken barney the dinosaur purple
Dude is trying to sell a kitchen that only the protagonist from saints row would buy
I honestly like it
Someone was really into Saints Row 2.
or Milka chocolate
That’s entirely the wrong kind of purple for that
Milka purple would look 10x better.
Rip idol ninja
Mojo Dojo Casa House.
Ok but it’s hideous and I love it. I’m the one they’re trying to sell to apparently.
Fr, was super confused/surprised to see all the comments agreeing that it sucked. I saw it and immediately wanted it.
Ah, I understood immediately how ugly it was. It’s my kind of ugly and I’d never tire of it, but I understand. Purple is a lot, especially such a bold purple.
For marketability, it’s horrendous. While I’m open to dramatic, unique, and off the wall stuff it’s still not my taste.
BUT! I would absolutely take advantage of the discount I’d get on the property after it’s spent over a year on the market. I also wouldn’t be in a rush to remodel, but would look for ways to highlight it till the novelty wore off.
Yeah, everyone has an ugly that speaks to us, purple veined marble is apparently one of mine. And that’s part of the beauty of people. Seeing this makes me more sympathetic to the people who love neon animal prints because I too have terrible taste in my own way.
Thanos Kitchen
Like Thanos and Grimmace had a three way with Barney
Send the listing to Marie Schrader.
I love purple but I would hate this kitchen.
My living room walls are purple but less intense than this and offset with blues and off-white. You have to be careful with purple. It gets overwhelming quick.
lol what a waste of money.
Like it’s kid’s bubblegum grapetastic flavor purple. It’s “look what it’s done to the camera’s white balance” purple.
I guess I have bad taste sign me up
Pretty sure the text in the image is satire
Perhaps. I’m honestly not sure how this kitchen could have cost anywhere near 15 grand. The cabinets are all just repainted and the stove doesn’t look particularly extravagant.
Maybe if the floor is real marble/granite?
Pretty sure it’s poured resin or the like…
Yeah, at this point in time I basically just assume everything is fake until proven real.
And I’ve been around some of these house flippers, they love to brag in public about how much money and effort they’re spending to renovate these houses but in private they always brag about how much money they’re saving by cutting various corners and getting everything done on the cheap.
Fuck flippers.
I found one local house for $70K that had a huge number of problems, like cracks and rust showing through the stucco exterior, broken fascia boards, upstairs that was only 6’ high, stairway that came up into the upstairs bathroom etc. etc. (the house dated from around 1850 or so). I passed on it, but I was surprised to see that it sold just a few days later, and even more surprised when it was re-listed less than two months later for $195K. I went to see it again and it was a classic lipstick-on-a-pig flip: just grey paint and those nasty grey fake wood vinyl floor planks everywhere. I’ve never been so flat out offended by a flip before - and the thing sold almost immediately for the asking price. I feel sorry for the schmucks who bought that thing, although they probably turned around and sold it for $300K.
I don’t think you can get purple marble? If you could, I can’t imagine youd use it in a floor for a kitchen like this. It’d be for a counter used as an accent piece for a millionaire’s mansion’s 2nd kitchen.
Lmfao oh fuck, I thought the floor was a countertop, like they were taking a pic from behind an island
Yeah, no, I’m pretty sure that’s the floor. If it was a countertop, it would only work to create the illusion of a floor from one specific angle, and I kinda doubt a house flipper would go to the length of building a countertop for that particular purpose. Yeah, a picture from that angle might help attract potential buyers, but it would be immediately visible when you come in for an inspection. I’m pretty sure there’s more effective and less obvious ways to screw your buyers.
No now that you’ve mentioned it it’s definitely the floor I was just super confused at first.
But it looks like the counters match the floor.
Yeah no house would stay on the market for over a year with the reason being something a buyer could fix with a few grand.
