You get one chance to make a first impression so you wanna get it right. With 90% of buyers beginning their search online—especially this year—those listing photos matter, folks! You HAVE to find a way to capture the attention of those online buyers and get them to STOP THEIR SCROLL!
To get the most out of your home’s glam session, follow these real estate pre-shoot tips:
✓ Vacuum carpet and mop floors.
✓ Clear and clean kitchen counters. Less is MORE
✓ Clear and clean bathroom sinks, tubs, and showers.
✓ Replace burned-out lightbulbs.
✓ Open ALL blinds and window treatments. LET THE LIGHT IN
✓ Turn ON all the lights (Yep—all of them!).
✓ Turn OFF TVs, computers, and ceiling fans.
✓ Clear appliances of magnets, papers, and photos.
✓ Make all beds.
✓ Place all shoes and clothes in closets.
✓ Get rid of pets and pet items (toys, food bowls, crates, etc.).
If you’re short on time, focus on two things: 1) CLEANING and, 2) CLEARING. Then, take a deep breath and leave the rest to your agent and professional real estate photographer. You—and buyers—are gonna be WOWED by your home's photos!
I LOVE my Professional Photographer but I still make sure to attend the Photography appointment just to make sure everything is exactly where I want it for Photos.
Remember YOU ONLY GET ONE SHOT AT A FIRST IMPRESSION! I say GO big or Go HOME! (no pun intended lol)
