How To Get The Listings You've Always Wanted

What can a real estate agent do to pick up more listings and position themselves above the other agents in their area?

Real estate photography is important not because it sells homes, and it's not about securing a quicker sale, or getting the best possible price. Yes, it does all of those things but that’s not where the real benefit lies for you.

Real estate photography sells real estate agents.

When an agent consistently uses high quality images, it makes THEM look good, and brings in more listings for THEM. Note that I will emphasise the word “consistently”, because if you only do it for the extra special properties then potential sellers will pick up on that and you won’t really be maximising the full potential of this marketing tool.

Here’s how it works:

When you consistently use great photos, it positions you as a highly professional real estate agent. Why?

Because buyers and sellers will almost always see the photos of the houses you are selling before they meet you. Those photos are your #1 branding tool. Those photos are selling you on your behalf well before you receive an enquiry from a potential seller.

So when you use really bad photos, where homes look dark, or wonky, or small, that’s going to reflect badly on you as well.

On the other hand, when a real estate agent uses magazine-quality professional photography, it positions him or her as the consummate professional who does everything well. The assumption is that an agent who takes the time to ensure the photos of a home looks great will also be a great sales person and a highly competent agent.

All of that naturally leads to that agent picking up more listings (because homeowners would prefer to sell their home with the most professional and competent agent they can find), and that of course leads to more sales and therefore more dollars in the pocket of the real estate agent who uses high quality photography in all of their campaigns.

So when you’re thinking about the photos you use in your next marketing program, think about the photos and whether they are promoting you in the way that you want them to.
