If you follow this site, you know that I occasionally like to showcase bad real estate photos of homes for sale in
Here are the 4 important tips for your home’s photos:
1. Quality: Photos that are dark or blurry feel reflect poorly on the property. Every home should have decent photos. A nice, expensive house should have nice, expensive looking photos.
2. Quantity: Our MLS allows 25 photos per listing which every property should feature. And they should show key areas of interest to buyers. Two good angles of a living room are more important than showing a 3rd bathroom. If the property is a 1 bedroom condo and you just can’t get 25 good shots, then that is the only excuse to use fewer photos.
3. Update the photos: It's August, but the photos still show bare trees or pumpkins on the porch? That tells the buyer that the home has been listed for a long time, and plants the seed that something could be wrong.
4. Move things around: Move clutter out of the shot and show the home at its best. People and animals should never be in MLS property photos. Move cars out of the way as well as anything really distracting.
A picture is worth more than a thousand words – it’s worth a sale!
