Why is it important to have good photos when selling your home? - 11/04/08 08:55 PM
Well, here is what I tell my clients ... as a seller, you have to keep in mind that your home is no longer a "home" when it hits the market.  It is a "house".  It is a product.  You want it to show it's best in order to achieve the objective, TO SELL!  As I represent many sellers, I take the time to photograph each home very carefully as I try to get good angles and views; at the same time allowing a prospective buyer a good idea of what the property looks like, just as if they were there in person.  The photos should … (0 comments)
