If you are serious about selling, it is important to make a listing a lasting impression of your property. With the growing number of potential home buyers looking for property online the following cannot be more accurate: " A picture speaks a thousand words"
Nothing is more important than photos that will show a home in the most favourable way when reaching out to potential buyers. According to Propscan, you have at most three seconds to engage with a browser before they move onto the next property that match their search criteria.

The ideal time to take property photos is either in the morning or early afternoon when the light is best. When taking photos of the interior, make sure that ll blinds and curtains are pulled open allowing maximum light to come in. Buyers like homes that are light and bring. Clear surfaces appeal to buyers as it makes it easier for them to picture their furniture and belongings in the home.
Exterior photos are best taken after midday. The sunset and outdoor lights give a beautiful effect. |
