But first, it’s today!

While listening to the today show I was catching up on the Sheen saga. Barbara Corcoran, the Real Estate Guru was being interviewed about what helps homes sell. Now while I don’t agree with everything that ms. Corcoran has to say, mainly because of some differences in selling areas, I do agree with the fact that everyone is looking on the web for real estate deals.

She gave some good examples of what buyers are looking for in an online website. The topic comes down to pictures. Photos are the main reason that people go to the website. I have preached this many times on this blog and websites. If you don’t have good looking and explanatory pictures on your listings then you are going to do your properties an in justice. Photographs are what the clients log on to view properties. Besides the price being published photos are the second highest reasons to search real estate websites.

Give your clients a good chance of competition a place professional grade photographs that don’t miss lead the searching public. Make the pictures give a true and honest depiction of the property. Don’t publish photos that are old if the home is five years old. Photos will sell the property in areas that words can not express.
