Taking the Best Pictures for Your Listing

Make Your Property Stand out from the Rest

If you are selling your property without the help of an estate agent, then it’s important that you make your listing as appealing as possible and to the same standard that buyers expect from an agent. Using the right pictures is a great place to start, and AREA Title Agency has some tips which can help.

Take More Pictures

Using a digital camera means that you don’t have to worry about processing your photos and can see them immediately, giving you the ability to review each picture before moving to the next room. Instead of simply standing in the door and taking one photo, take advantage of your digital camera and take a range of photos. For example, after you take a photo, mark off an item from this list and then take another photo, until the list has been completed.

• Change the lighting.
• Alter the camera angle.
• Add an item of furniture.
• Remove an item of furniture.
• Open or close your shutters.

This will ensure you have a great selection of photos to choose from when writing your listing.

No Blurry Photos

Much like you wouldn’t want to show blurry vacation photos to your friends, you shouldn’t show your buyers blurry photos of your property. A photographer would utilize a tripod to hold the camera steady and a remote shutter to prevent any movement in their pictures, you can achieve a similar result using a range of items to hold your camera, such as books or resting your phone on a chair and then using your camera’s timer function.
