So DH and I started house shopping this weekend.

We went to an open house and saw a strange thing. They had sinks in 3/4 bedrooms.

We went to another one where the people had done no stageing at all. Clothes were all over the unmade bed and a flosser was laying on the coffee table.

I have DEFINITELY smelled some horrible things in open houses, etc. 

I have also seen ones with walls/ceilings that are yellow from smoking in the house...ewwww!

Good luck with the hunt!

oh my god, when we went house shopping, we walked through an empty house that had been foreclosed on.  They must have loved the colour purple, because the carpet throughout the WHOLE house was mauve, the kitchen floor was laminate with purple in it, the counter was purple, the walls were all different shades of purple!  There was even leftover soap on the sink that was purple.  The only rooms that weren't purple was 1 bedroom in the basement that was oil-based lime green, and a hot pink bathroom.  We laughed a lot walking through it...
