What NOT to Do in MLS photos

Exterior Front. We’ve been licensed Realtors for a few decades in the Des Moines area. Things have changee in 30+ years. People are visual – that has not changed. In fact – that aspect has become increasingly important. With most buyers doing preliminary research on line – photos are imperative. Good photos – definitely give your property an edge over those without. Bad MLS photos are a source of entertainment for us in the industry. Sadly, they are not going to help you find a buyer for your property.  A quick tour on Craigslist will harvest a plethora of bad photos. Nobody wants to see your unmade bed, a view of your open toilet or your refrigerator magnets. Our goal as Realtors is to present a house in the best possible light to make as many potential buyers want to see the property in person. We want the photos to make you want the house to be yours! We’ll be posting  about photo errors in the future – be prepared to be entertained and educated! First thing is -if  the grass is green at the house, the grass should be green in the photos. Don’t keep snow-covered landscape on the internet when winter has ended.
