Make this a periodic feature, please! I have no patience for browsing Zillow myself but I do want to see things that you find and your commentary.

Luckily I spend so much time on Zillow that a Parts 2 and 3 are just economical at this point

“I don’t know how or when humans got so mesmerized by the idea of imprisoning a bunch of lightbulbs in a spherical cage.” 😂 Have to admit I was skeptical of the premise at first, but laughed harder than I have all week by the end. Thank you.

The media room was just confusing. I don't think I could watch tv with Clint Eastwood, Steve McQueen and Sean Connery staring back and judging me. Kudos to the brave stager who obviously said "eff it and let's do this" when the big screened tv apparently didn't arrive before photo shoot day, though I still think leaving the small tv off might have been a better idea. Move the accent wall to the right please.

I think that first room is definitely a mockup. There is no reflection of the Sputnik chandelier on the table, but there is a reflection of the window on it. There also don't seem to be any shadows of the chair or table legs. It's very possible that room is totally empty save for the (ugh) barn door!

I’d buy that gnome gaming app.

To quote the brilliant Kate Berlant and Jacquelyn Novak of Poog.... Zillow is "my hobby... my hell"
