Tips to prepare your house for real estate photography

Nowadays, a lot of home buyers start their search online. There are numerous websites on the internet that list properties and their features. Potential buyers are able to get the idea of the size, layout and the condition of the house even without stepping a foot at the property. If you are selling property online, stunning photos can attract potential buyers. Ensure that you have thoroughly prepared the property to get a perfect picture.

General guidelines

There are certain general guidelines that should be followed to ensure that the pictures of your house look beautiful. Good photos increase the likelihood of selling your property more quickly. If your listing looks professional, there is a possibility to sell your property even at a higher price.

Preparing your property before the photographer arrives helps to ensure that the pictures look good. You hire the photographer to make your property look good through the lens. Therefore, it is your job to clean the mess and put everything in place.

If you can, it is advisable to hire an interior designer to help you arrange the space. The final outcome of the photos looks great when a professional interior designer is involved.

On the other hand, if you can’t afford to hire an interior designer, there are several things you can do on your own to make the property look stunning. For instance, you can arrange the furniture and adjust the décor to make it look tastefully furnished.

Lasting impression

When you are arranging the furniture, you should understand that the first impression matters. You should create a lasting impression from the moment a person walks in the doorway. In most cases, the real estate photographer will take the photos from the doorway area. Make sure that the room is well lit. Also, arrange the elements in the room to correspond with the windows and doorways.

The photographer is likely to capture the windows because most people want to see whether the room is supplied with sufficient natural light or not. In addition, if there are other built-in features such as a fireplace, the photographer should include them in the photo.

Declutter the space

It is advisable to declutter every room to make the space more appealing. Get rid of extra elements that clutter the space. In doing so, you will make the room look generic and stylish.

Upcoming offplan projects such as the Emaar Beachfront and Dubai Creek Harbour feature properties with stunning interiors so that buyers don’t have to go through the hassles of making the property look good when selling.
