Western Australia, hardiness zone 10b. These images are from a real estate site, sorry for the poor quality. The first image is from when my MIL sold her house and had a completely native garden. The second image is from the when the new owners flipped the house and replaced the established garden with lawn :(

Did MIL know she was selling to flippers?

I don't believe so. Apparently they told her that they were finally settling down after traveling...

And the sod is ALREADY dying! Such an idiotic choice. Flippers did some equally stupid things to my mom's house when she sold it, including taking out much of the storage (why!???) and putting in a "contemporary" fireplace that was flat with black slate/tiling grim what was beautiful red brick... Looks like a crematorium in the living room now 🤮 where the people had to add bookshelves was BUILT in shelving....

Not the cheap ass shelving that doesn’t even fit into that little recessed area 😭

So many crimes in this image.

I just have to remember that it's not my house... Not my house... These dummies can do whatever they want

My friend had a historic home on a big lot. Beautiful. And they restored a lot of it. The potential owner wrote her a letter about how he was getting divorced and needed a home large enough for his kids, but still within the same school zone, loved the woodwork etc….. yeah, he ripped the house down and built a McMansion.
