Capturing the perfect image of your humble abode yourself isn't easy. Estate agents have fancy cameras with clever lenses which are capable of all sorts of photo magic.

When it's just you and your iPhone, it's hard to achieve the same results. However, there are some things you can do to help yourself. Make sure your room isn't messy, find the most flattering angle you can and remove any possibility of embarrassment from the frame.

Sounds simple, but for one body-confident man, not following the last point recently caused him some deep blushes. The homeowner accidentally uploaded a VERY revealing image of his room to an estate agent's website in Singapore, and was eventually forced to ask them to remove it.

The maisonette owner told local media that he had cleaned the property before taking pictures to help sell it. Having worked up a bit of a sweat doing the cleaning, he then stripped off to cool down while he took some shots of the rooms. Unfortunately, he failed to realise he'd accidentally picked up his own naked body in the mirror in the corner of one photograph.

The photos were then shared on the estate agent's site, and it was only when a friend of the anonymous man pointed out their cand Luckily, the pictures were promptly removed. A spokesman for estate agents 99.co said that no one in the company had noticed the embarrassing mistake and that they regretted not pulling the picture down sooner.
