now is the time to update those exterior photographs. A front shot of your listing covered in snow looks a little silly about now(at least in Northeast Ohio). What a great way to show your client you are still actively marketing their property by sending your photographer out for a mini photo shoot of the exterior.

The home owner went on to explain that the agent did very basic … (10 comments)
