Why Professional Real Estate Photography Is Important to Realtors

real-estate-photographyYou never get a second chance to make a first impression. It is no different for your real estate listings where that first impression is from the online images of your listings. With all of the competition on the market, it is important to have professional photos. There are many benefits of hiring a professional photographer and here are the top seven reasons why.

Impress Your Online Audience: A good professional photographer knows how to make the rooms look their best and make those images stand out and keep them in the “must see” list. Impress your online market segment with the best “curb appeal” possible.

Generate More Leads: Properties with professional photography images typically get 61 percent more views than those taken with cheaper point and shoot cameras.

Win More Listings: Include a portfolio of professional images in your listing presentation and wow your new clients.

Make Professional Photography Part of Your Brand: Professional photography images, and related services, sets you apart from other agents. Get a competitive edge by showing your clients you are serious about the marketing of their home and include professional photography as part of your portfolio of value added services.

Extend Your Marketing Team: A good professional photographer has experience with digital content publishing tools and may assist with brochure flyers, images crafted for specific social media posts, single property websites and more.

Social Media Exposure: While neither Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Google+, Pinterest nor any other social media platform has a button to “buy now”, the fact your professional images stay on long after a listing has sold, will help you attract more followers and referrals.

Increase Your GCI: Listings with professional photography had higher sell prices than those without. Professional photography is adding value to your listing and your gross commission income.
