When you peruse through real estate listings on various web sites, do you really look at the interior photos?
(I'd love to show you some examples, but I'm not permitted to 'copy and paste' other agent's listing photos.)
Some sellers are losing thousands of dollars or even outright sales on their homes.
Why?
Because agents aren't telling their sellers what they need to do to make their photos show off their properties in the best light!
If you go online and look at a few homes, you'll quickly see what I mean:
~ too much furniture shrinks a room
~ un-made beds
~ cluttered counter tops and pantries
~ garage full of 'stuff'
~ toys all over the floor
~ dated wallpaper and unflattering paint colors
~ over-sized plants blocking a view
~ and on and on....
So, help your sellers out and don't take photos when the rooms aren't properly prepared.
Personally, if certain rooms in a home don't show well, I won't take photos in those rooms. But I do the most I can to make a room show at its best.
With more agents taking interior and exterior photos on their own now that (our) MLS doesn't do it anymore,
please realize that buyers may be eliminating your listings from consideration because of the photos.
