AN estate agent called a house a “total disaster” and “one of the worst properties on the market” in a brutally honest listing.
But it does not seem to have put off buyers as the £340,000 three-bed home is already under offer.

The listing went viral after it was shared on a Reddit thread.
And despite the messy state of the house, viewers reckoned it would have gone for well over the asking price in the “crazy” market.
The house is in Denver, Colorado, and has three bedrooms and two bathrooms over 1,300 sq ft.
Pictures show piles of junk filling the yard and in almost every room.
The agent’s listing warns: “This house is a total disaster!
“Sold ‘as is’ including all the ‘stuff’ on the property.
“A great garage however. You need to bring your imagination.
“One of the worst properties on the market.”

It was listed for $429,000 (£340,000) just three weeks ago but is already under contract.
Zillow’s automated estimate predicts the agreed sale price is likely to be around £471,400 (£375,000), more than 10 per cent over the list price.
Redditors said it was a sign of the spiralling property market in the area.
One said: “ ‘It’s not that bad’, I think to myself scrolling through and realizing each photo gets worse.”
Another said: “One of the worst properties on the market and it’s going for 429k… wow.”
One local said they had bought a much bigger house nearby three years ago for the same price.
They added: “I thought we overpaid at the time, but then I see s*** like this. I don’t know how people are supposed to buy a house.”
