The Importance of Professional Photography & Videography in Real Estate Sales

You see them all the time when searching the MLS: listings with no photos, just one exterior shot, or photos that are poorly taken. Statistics show that 90% of home buyers start their search online. That’s up from 84% just a year ago. That’s why we go above and beyond when it comes to the virtual tours we provide for our listed properties. We want our homes to shine online. That’s why our services include:

Complimentary Home Staging
All of our listings are professionally staged prior to going on the market. Our clients are amazed at the before and after. 94% of staged homes sell on average in under 29 days.*

High Definition Photography
Our photographers will use up to 3 additional lights to brighten the features in select rooms of the house.

These photos turn out crisper and clearer and look better in print and online. Using enhanced lighting and digital equipment, the photographers carefully consider all aspects of what he/she sees in the view finder. We move objects like chairs and lamps that interfere with the scene. We make sure main subjects in the scene are balanced and composed properly.

Fusion Photography
Seeing is believing with Fusion photography! An innovative new technique where multiple photos are blended into one for maximum impact. You won’t believe your eyes!

Elevated Photos
By using elevated photography (from 20-foot and 40-foot elevated tripod systems) we can capture compelling images that are impossible to shoot from ground level — increasing the impact of the frontal elevation or a pool setting and adding dynamic perspective.

Night Shots

Color Brochures
Our color print materials have won awards including Best Overall Luxury Marketing Package by “Who’s Who” in Luxury Real Estate. The finest heavy weight paper stocks, elegant full-bleed designs, and special high gloss coating show your home at its best.

We automatically convert your virtual tour to a video and post to YouTube.com, one of the 5 most visited sites on the web.

The Proof
The proof is in the numbers: listings with professional photography & virtual tours sell within 90 days, while those without sit on the market for an average of 167 days.** We provide a Virtual Tour report for your home so you can see how many potential buyers have clicked on your tour.
