Funniest Things I've Seen As a Real Estate Investor: Part 2

And now for part 2 in my visual journey through DIY disasters:

Best Basketball Hoop Ever

This may be hard to tell from the picture, but the paint color used was smoke. Maybe this could make for the next anti-smoking ad:

Pepsi anyone?

And yes, that is a duct vent attached to a plumbing stack:

  1. I could also post one of those nicotine pictures ... sad.


    1. Yeah it is quite sad, especially given I actually had to pick between a couple photos I have like that. And I'm certain we're not the only two with such photos. It makes you wonder what their lungs look like...


  2. So it looks like some pictures were left on the wall and just painted around... is that what happened?


    1. It's not paint, it's nicotine residue from years and years and years of smoking, which the pictures protected the paint from. It's a little hard to see in the picture, but you can see that the yellow color isn't consistent.
