Excellence

This is a true story. I was sitting at a McDonalds sometime recently near a realtor showing houses on her laptop to her client. The realtor said something like this to her client: “this is the house I love, but you can’t see it from these pictures.”

Wow, that’s sure true in a lot of cases with Real Estate online; the photographs are simply not good. Dark rooms, tilted lines, ugly lights, odd reflections in mirrors, strange color casts, even stranger ceiling lines. All in all, a very uncompelling view of what is most likely a very warm and lovely home. I don’t believe this serves either the owner of the home or the listing agent since a very likely outcome of showing the home that way on the MLS and other online venues is that a potential buyer will not even go look at the home. Not a good result. The whole point of putting images on the web is to attract potential buyers. It’s worth a little more effort and even expense.

Nice Light

As an example, the photograph attached to this article shows a nice set of lines and colors. Even without furniture the home shows well; you can see out the windows and the shadows are not too deep with the interior corners.

Here’s a home I did recently that has a nice addition in the back, filled with lovely windows and even an A/C unit to make it work even in the hottest summer. The home was listed and moved to contract pending in just 4 days!

Here’s a slideshow of the pictures taken for the listing:

Some photographs from a new listing. The day was fairly dreary, which can result in lower levels of yellow and orange in the outdoor photographs. However, we ended up with some nice pictures. This home has some amazing wood cabnetry.

Photographs of a two-story home in Round Rock. The home has a wonderful yard, pool and is very nicely kept. Notice from the photographs that rooms visible outside the room in the photograph are lit well and show nice color. At the same time, the windows show details in the yard and sky. This is the kind of photography I do to make sure the home looks just like you see it with your eye; no blown out windows, no crazy colors, no dark hallways.
