(although I've seen grown up Realtors(R) do this too!!)

My darling autistic 6yo has decided he would like to work for our Real Estate Office! He sets up his own office everytime we're there and even had his own cubicle for a while! He adores all things Realty World and I recently got him his own RW logo embroidered kids shirt, and he wears my RW hat plenty! 

My young charge has had plenty experience with buyers - those with kids often ask if I have any I can bring to help entertain theirs! (the more the merrier???).    So I thought it was time to take the newbie out on a listing. ;)

I had to wait for the perfect opportunity - afterall it's not generally a good idea to unleash your 6yo into someone's home!   Finally, a good friend looking for a way to involve her kiddo in the sale of their home as well!  Awesome! 

Loading our trusty digital cameras into the boys hands, we sent them off to get pictures of the house that they thought people would want to see and make them want to buy! 

Needless to say - I came back later sans kids, to take actual listing photos but here's what the boys got!

A .... doorknoba fan...

Hey - they got some important features! What's a home without doorknobs and light-switches!  His friend's hair unfortunately, does not convey with the home!

All in all it was a fun exercise that got the kids excited about selling the home!  And they did a better job than a few agents I've seen, lol!

 

Get your kids excited about your move!!  Use a Family Friendly Realtor who gets them involved!

Like oh, I dunno - me!

Sheree, great post! I actually like the photos - - maybe not for MLS, but they were cool! Great job and great attitude!

Sheree - Funnel this into a hobby and encourage it. I think I see some talent.

Sheree: If children are in the picture … so to speak … then getting them involved is a great idea. So now we know what a 6 year old thinks is cool in a home! Thanks for sharing.

I think I will encourage the hobby and I think I'll do this with kids in listings from now on, it was neat! 

He got a bunch of other photos, a lot of personal property types that were interesting shots.  Profile shots of a pop can or deoderant, lots of light switches, balloon closeups, etc.

This is so funny.   As I have been surfing the MLS for a new client we were surprised at how many pictures we could not make out.  There are 2 houses we are going to see just because we want to figure out what the pictures are.  I can at least tell what all of your kids photos are of!!!!

I chejust checked and 17% of the single-family listings on our MLS have only 1 picture.  So your 6-year is already out performing a lot of paid 'professionals'.

Sheree, you should definitely keep it going. It looks a like start to abstract art. Love the picture of the hair.
