Tim Rousu was asked by his property agent to send two photos of each room for the house inspection, to &#8216;confirm the house was still upright&#8217;. He certainly rose the challenge!<\/p>\r\n<p>In the bathroom he is first pictured, one foot on the lavatory lid, shaving his legs &#8211; followed by a relaxing glass of wine in the bath sporting a facepack. In the bedroom, he is pictured pinned under the bed with an outstretched arm beckoning rescue &#8211; and in the second photo being pulled out from beneath it. The dining room pictures him tied to the dining table, his daughter apparently pouring water over a facecloth covering his face.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_24191\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24191\" style=\"width: 337px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-24191\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertysurveying.co.uk\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/Tim-Rousu-photos.jpg\" alt=\"Virtual tour with a twist\" width=\"337\" height=\"477\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.propertysurveying.co.uk\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/Tim-Rousu-photos.jpg 337w, https:\/\/www.propertysurveying.co.uk\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/Tim-Rousu-photos-212x300.jpg 212w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 337px) 85vw, 337px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24191\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tim Rousu has posted his photos on Facebook<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>In the kitchen, he is viewed from behind raiding the fridge then with his head in the washing machine.
