We've all heard the old saying, "A picture is worth a thousand words." In real estate, photos can make a big difference in how fast you sell your house. Now, thanks to constant advances in technology, buyers can see a potential home they are interested in without leaving their bed. And buyers are doing more precise research, filtering by location, price, school district, square images, and more. When they find what they were looking for, they immediately flip through photos. Often, photos are what arouse the buyer's interest in your house and motivate him to take the next step in contacting the broker. Therefore, it is important to take professional photos in cooperation with a real estate agents before launching your house on the market. Your agent must have the expertise and connection to professional photographers in order to create images that inspire and attract. At Picture That Property, the real estate agents we work with are the best at choosing the photographers who care about the right angles, the best lighting and high-quality photos to capture the best features of your home.
The more buyers you find first, the better chance you have of selling your house immediately. According to a study by the National Association of Realtors 2017, houses with one photo spent an average of 70 days on the market, but a house with 20 photos spent 32 days on the market. Not only will professional photography help you sell your house immediately, but it will also help you get a better deal. For households between $ 300,000 and $ 1 million, those with high-quality photos in ads sell for an extra $ 3,000 to $ 11,000.
And we emphasize the words professional photography because you need high quality photography. It's always the first impression buyers make about your house before they enter the actual property. In fact, 89% of shoppers who used the internet to help find a home found the photos very useful.
