A Sales Agent Used A Picture Of The Torch Tower ON FIRE To Sell This Apartment
It might be tricky for sales agents to source good quality shots for online ads, but c’mon, this is pure bad taste.
A real estate agent placed an ad on Dubizzle for a one bed apartment rental in Torch Tower, and along with the sales blurb and pictures of the interiors, the agent used a very questionable exterior image.
The pic has since been removed, but Twitter users were quick to notice the bumble, and yup… they managed to screen grab. Here’s how it played out:
An ad for a two bed in Dubai Marina
Used this image when the ad first went live
People just want to know why
Why did the real estate agent for this unit in Torch Tower think it made sense to put a picture of it ON FIRE in the listing?https://t.co/38044bYYQk

Haha nice, they changed it… but thankfully we will always have the memories immortalised in screenshots. pic.twitter.com/jdoUH9w8Sh

The general reaction
Oh my God.

And yup, the agent could still make bank
The worst part is that his incompetence will still result in a 5% commission. Literally for not doing the only thing an agent is supposed to do in Dubai: put up proper pictures.
