Anthony - Yes I do see these types of photos on occasion.

I don't think it will help sell the home, but at least they are being honest about the condition of the home. Amazing that they couldn't remove all the clutter out of the bathroom first.

I've seen close to that.  It definitely helps if you're marketing it as an ugly home or fixer (looks like no caulk between tile and tub, which could mean water intrusion and mold).

 

But the yellow rubber frog in the tub really sells the room!

I don't get it.  Along with pictures of corners of rooms.  Maybe they think it at least shows the type of bathroom.  I wouldn't have bothered to post it.
