Use Day To Dusk To Generate More Inquiries
For maximum impact on your marketing, Brad recommends using Image Enhancement on your photos and adding a Day to Dusk edit to your hero image. Day to Dusk has been shown to attract up to 400% more clicks on your listing - so for US$4 it’s a no-brainer. The more interest you generate the faster you will find a tenant.

Brad’s Top Tips For Shooting Real Estate:
- Wipe down your lens before you start shooting
 - Prepare the space and ensure it’s neat and tidy
 - Turn on all interior lights
 - Turn off fans
 - Always shoot landscape (never portrait)
 - Position yourself in the corner of a room to capture as much of the space as possible
 - Shoot at eye-level with a steady hand
 - Take a second shot for safety
 - When shooting interiors, it’s usually best to click on the windows to expose the outside before taking your shot
 - Don’t worry about your reflection when shooting the bathroom - we’ll edit it out with our Image Enhancement service.
 - Edit every image to create a clean, crisp and seamless array of photos
 - Enhance your hero shot with a Day to Dusk edit
