Kathi Presutti visited Preview Properties.com on Thursday to share some tips on taking better MLS photos. She suggested we "consider our photos our first showings." Here are a few more tips she provided:
- Make sure you put captions on vacant room photos (EX: "living room", "2nd bedroom").
- Remove family photos and other clutter.
- No seasonal decor.
- Switch out several small art pieces with one large piece.
- Turn off the TV.
- Take magnets, etc. off the refrigerator.
- Remove dishes from the sink and any rags, towels on the counters.
- Put the toilet seat down.
- Remove toothbrushes from the bathroom countertops.
- Make sure the blinds are level with each other if multiple windows show in photo.
- Watch the weather report. Sometimes sunny days aren't the best for interior photos.
- 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. generally a good time to take photos, but so is dawn and dusk ("golden hour")
- Take photos from corners of rooms so viewer can see two walls in photo.
- Try taking photos from low angles (or high angles).
- Use a wide angle lense, not a fisheye lense.
