This is NOT a new thing at all. Even 10 years ago apartments had photo shopped clean walls and you go see it to find shitty dirty/damaged walls.
The stupid ai touch up tools do so much more now. My friends bought a house and all my friendgroup has been helping them fix it and paint it. I needed a reference photo when reinstalling vents so I decided to use the listing to figure out which vent went where.
The fuckass realtor who listed the house removed every single vent with the stupid ai tool. Same with the kitchen, there was no sink in the photos. Like what are we doing
Yeah it used to take work but now websites make it easy with a button
True. The issue is how prevalent it is now. Any moron can do it now.
Iirc, landlords never had any actual photoshopping skills and mostly just used old pictures or simply didn't take pictures of the stuff they didn't want to show.
