Solutions for Selling Part III - It's all about the photos!
If you've read it once, you've likely read it a thousand times; prospective buyers are using the Internet to begin their search for their next home. That statement alone speaks volumes to the importance of your photos. Prospective buyers, in the comfort of their home, will spend time reviewing home after home in order to create a list. If you're a seller, your objective is to make that list.
Knowing how important the photos are to the seller and to the agent, I make it a priority to take the best pictures I can for each of my staging projects and provide the photos to the agent and to the seller at no additional charge. Yes, it took an investment in a great camera and yes, it takes an investment of my time. However, to me personally, it's worth every dime and every minute.
In summary, beyond pricing the home correctly; using a strong agent to market the home; and ensuring the home looks incredible (thru staging, of course), having great photos is one of those must-have items.
Here's a recent home I staged in Atlanta Georgia:
Kitchen eat-in before staging:
Eat-in Kitchen After Staging:
Here are some close-ups that I did just for fun:
I'm calling this photo "the fern." Clever. Eh?
Apples (which has become part of my home staging signature):
I'm calling this one Mugs!
And here's a little something I created using Picnik. I'm going to forward this to the agent as I think it would make for an excellent photo to have on a flyer.
