FALSE ADVERTISING LETS GET INTO IT‼️
So my client wanted to look at apartments in the S Post Oak area, I found several nice apartments, beautiful pictures, great amenities, I definitely felt at the time that my client would love this home‼️
BOYYYYY WHEN I TELL YOU GUYS WE PULLED UP IN SHOCK AND IN AWE‼️I COULDNT EVEN BELIEVE THAT THE APARTMENTS WERE EVEN AT THAT PRICE RANGE‼️‼️
WINDOWS AND DOORS WERE BOARDED UP, PARKING BLOCKS WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PARKING LOT (NOT SPEED BUMPS) BLINDS ON MOST OF THE HOMES BROKEN BADLY , IT WAS A RAGGEDY MESS
THIS IS IMPORTANT WHY AS A REALTOR WE ALWAYS ACTUALLY SEE APARTMENTS OR ANY THING BEING LEASED, IN PERSON, NOT JUST WHEN SOMEONE IS PURCHASING A HOME‼️
Although this is an apartment complex managed by a property management company, I also run into alot of listing agents posting photos of homes on MLS that gives the prospective buyers false reality.
Yes, you do want to put nice proper photos to capture attention, but you do NOT want to put pictures from when the home was first purchased, photos of places similar not the actual property, or photos overly edited‼️‼️
Photos should show the current condition of the property. If the property is not ready to show, DO NOT LIST, until ready. Being transparent in this game goes a long way and it helps save time and money.
Also remember the most important thing in real estate , “time is of the essence”, why advertise false photos that do not represent the property❓ That will cost you more time dealing with different prospects and failed contracts, when your initial listing can include and show everything about the current state of the home.
Realtors, what do you do when you come into this issue when showing a client❓❓ Comment below🔽
