When you sell your home, do you need a professional photographer to photograph your home? In my opinion the answer is absolutely 100% yes.

The problem is that the number one camera used by real estate agents today is their iPhone. Those photos do not benefit the customer. We actually have a professional photographer on staff so we can take professional pictures of every home we put on the market.

When I got into the business 14 years ago, there was a book with one black and white photo that everyone used to look at homes. Everyone had to visit open houses in order to see what the house looked like.

Thanks to the internet, buyers can look through hundreds of pictures of homes, take virtual tours, watch videos, examine floorplans, and look at 3D Matterport videos. We use all of these tools to advertise our clients’ homes.

Buyers can get a feel for the property
without ever setting foot in your home.

We sell houses to people who have never stepped onto the property. They buy the home just based off of photos. That is how we serve our clients. Buyers don’t have to waste time running around and looking at houses that aren’t a good fit, and sellers don’t have to leave their homes so those buyers can see their property.

The 3D Matterport video is also a great tool. As you can see here, you can tour the home virtually and see exactly what it looks like in real life.

Ultimately, if you’re going to pay someone to sell your home, they need to use professional photographs to market your property. If you have any questions about our marketing strategies, give us a call or send us an email. We would be happy to help you!
