If well over 80% of today’s home buyers begin the search for their next home online, are pictures important? Sure, most listings have at least photo, mostly because even the laziest of Realtors® will be fined by our Austin Board of Realtors® (Supplier of our MLS system).
My question to you… how important, really, is the quality of the photography? Some sellers (and their agents) scratch their heads at “why buyers can’t see around” a bad photo or furnishings fitting to a strong personal taste. These somewhat-weekly digests of actual MLS photos should help to illustrate to even the most stubborn seller/agent that quality of photography is important.
Some of these photos are from listings in Austin, which I used to refrain from posting for obvious reasons, but some of these are just to good. Sorry if your house appears in one of these posts… I’m sure it’s absolutely beautiful in person and I hope you sold/will sell it for what you want!
Not to toot my own horn or anything, but to see what my listing photos look like, see 4608AvenueG.com, a home currently for sale by yours truly in Austin.

Are we selling a house or two ladies and a dog?…

Which house would you want to see first? Which agent would you want to hire first? Just sayin’…
