Yes, Your Listing Photos Matter!

Why are they so important Jennifer? 

The listing photos for your home are used online and in print.  They are the first window into your property  a potential buyer will see and you want your property to stand out!  Through the use of high quality photography which captures your property at the right angle, you can feature the characteristics of your home that set it apart.  When this is done correctly it will entice potential buyers to call and ask questions, or book a showing.

They Show the Condition of your Home

When your home is clean and properly staged, quality pictures reflect the condition of your home and provide a buyer insight into what has been done or what needs to be done.  It helps attract serious buyers who already have an understanding of your home before they walk through the door.

Listing Photos can Expand Your Reach

Muskoka property Buyers are not often local- they are travelling 3, 4,5 or 6 hours to see a property.  Quality listing photos can prompt a potential buyer to make the call, book the showing and make the drive to see your property.

What can a homeowner do to help produce quality listing photos?

Homeowners can play an important part in preparing for the photo shoot.  Simple things like cleaning the home from top to bottom, including the windows, baseboards and cupboards make a big difference.  Make sure all the lights are working, the blinds are open, any outstanding projects are completed and the paint doesn’t have chips or marks.  Eliminate clutter and personal items from all surfaces, remove pet beds and food bowls.  If it’s possible be sure that you and your pet leave your Realtor and the photographer to do the work, while you enjoy some time away from your home.
