LOL so true. Another trap I see is so many people goes into the show room and bought an unit happily expecting their unit to look the same.
LOL so many little tricks happen in the show room that potential buyers have no idea.
-In show rooms they usually have no ceiling or VERY VERY HIGH ceiling so it looks more comfy and bigger to the visual eyes.
-In place where there should be a wall or windows (IE near balcony) THEY DON'T PUT A WALL THERE instead they either extend the floor and then put some fake pictures to show you a fake view (they simply put tape to show you where the walls would be). That way it makes you feel your unit is actually bigger because there are no walls).
- Show rooms is always always very bright with lot's of extra lighting so it gives you a fake idea thinking your unit will be this bright as well and as we know the brighter it is the bigger the place feels like
-They use custom funtirune. All the couchs, tables, beds, coffee tables they use in the show room most of them is custom made to be a bit smaller than what you would find normally (especially if the show room is a one bedroom unit or studio). This gives you a feeling that even with all the funturine the place still seems very big and cozy.
-Show rooms always have the best upgrades to make it look good.
-Show rooms is always neat and tidy. Let's face it how many of us will actually keep our house as clean as those show rooms. Notice there isn't any jackets, pants laying around. Or 17 cups laying around the kitchen or have pots and pans everywhere? Notice int he bathroom in the show room they don't have towels, toothbrush, hair gel, hair dyer?
