Are you photo ready?
Home staging is the process of cleaning, tidying and de-cluttering a property in preparation for
great photos.
Homes that are clean, tidy and clutter-free achieve the best photos, attract
more attention and achieve the best possible price.
- Only take landscape photographs - the width of the photos must be longer than their height
- Exterior photos - a sunny day with a blue sky is great. Even better if the sun is behind you
- Move vehicles from the driveway and mow the lawn
- Clean doors, windows, driveway, patio & garden furniture
- Internal photos - turn the lights on and make sure the camera flash is off
- Preparing the home - declutter and clear surfaces, make the beds thoroughly, plump cushions
- The bathroom - keep toilet lid down - clear any toiletries and remove toilet paper holder
- Also in bathroom - pull back any shower curtain and fold a fresh towel and place on toilet lid
- Fresh flowers can really make your photos stand out
- Kitchen - clear work surfaces and turn on any under counter lighting - remove any fridge magnets
- Move bins, pet bowls & bedding out of sight
