It’s Simple, Quick And Convenient
If you have 15 minutes and a late model smartphone with a wide-angle lens then you can give your property marketing a big boost.
- Grab your smartphone and shoot your property listing using Brad’s tips - for best results, use an iPhone 11 or later or alternatively a Samsung S10 or later.
- Send your photos to us for editing.
- We send you professional-quality images of your property in 24 hours.
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
