Appreciation post for open houses vs online listings

Man, I used to spend whole Saturdays driving to 5 or 6 open houses around Raleigh just to get a feel for a neighborhood. Now I just scroll Zillow for 30 minutes and I've seen 40 properties. But last week I walked into a place on Glenwood Ave that looked perfect online and the basement smelled like a swamp. Anyone else find online listings miss the whole vibe of a house?

My buddy went to an open house in North Hills last month, house looked like a dream online. He walked in and the whole place smelled like wet dog and mothballs, couldn't even stay five minutes. Sold for 30k over asking the next week, guess someone liked the scent.

My online dating profile says I'm tidy but you should see my car.
