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:

  1. Wipe down your lens before you start shooting
  2. Prepare the space and ensure it’s neat and tidy
  3. Turn on all interior lights
  4. Turn off fans

  12. Enhance your hero shot with a Day to Dusk edit
