PropertyPreviews-10 tips to improve your photos in 10 posts: Tip #1

One of the main categories we want to explore in the PropertyPreviews blog is to help Real Estate professionals show their listing in the best possible way. We want your prospects to want to see your listing in person.  In the next 10 photography blog posts we will give you tips you can use today to produce engaging photos.

Tip #1:  Prepping the house just before you are ready to shoot. I know there may be some listings where there is just no hope in making it look appealing. However, in this tip I’m not asking you to clean and rearrange the whole house.  It is up to you to explain to your clients your expectations before you arrive at their home to take photos.  There are a couple small prepping changes that go a long way to make the home look more appealing.  First, go throughout the home and turn on all the lights possible.  A well lit house is always going to look more appealing in a picture.  The second easy home prep tip is to remove all trash cans from the view of the camera.  Garbage is never an eye appealing item, and can make a kitchen look dirty at a brief glance.  Thirdly, put all toilet seat lids down.  Bathroom shots are hard enough, an exposed toilet seat is not going to make the picture look any better.  These may seem like small tasks, but we see many pictures that come into PropertyPreviews.com that could use these tips to make their free video look even better.
