Why Do Homes With Professional Photos in Their Listings Sell More Successfully?
When it comes to buyers looking for homes, a first impression is crucially important. A home that presents itself as in top condition with impressive features and little to no work to be done is going to catch the attention of buyers over a home that looks like it could use a little bit of upkeep, that seems a little bit cluttered, or not well decorated by the current homeowner.
The first time a majority of homebuyers see a home is through an online listing. This means that the photos placed on the listing are the true first impression buyers get from a home. This means that pictures need to show a home in its best condition. Not only that, but it is helpful for the pictures to be of top quality. Research has found that homes with professional photography for their online listing photos sell quicker and for more money as compared to listings with amateur photos taken by someone who has no experience in photography or by someone who might do it every once in a while as a hobby.
