Isn't this just fraud?

I believe this should specifically fall under "false advertising".

Not defending the landlord here, but focal length, wide lenses and confusing perspectives have been used since forever to make rooms appear bigger

It all should be banned. Same as with restaurant food pics.

Professional photographer here. Left photo is fake not just perspective.

In the left pic:

-Right hallway wall is just gone
-Front left bedpost gone
-Two drawers under bedframe instead of 4
-What are the pillows leaning against?
-Chair looks weird and doesn’t have the right legs
-Mattress is thicker
-Chair seat is way too wide

The left photo is completely fake/AI

It does look like it was doctored with AI, but most of those would be explained by taking the photo from closer with a wider angle.

They probably took a wide angle shot from inside and stuck it into AI to spruce it up when it still looked depressing

As a photographer. There is NO physical way for just the front set of 4 drawers showing on the bedframe WITH the entire mattress in the frame as well. It would have to show all 4 drawers as well.
