SHOULD REAL ESTATE AGENTS TAKE THEIR OWN PHOTOS
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, this statement cannot be more true for a real estate agent…
In a world where technology rules, those who refuse its ever-changing and newly forming systems will be left in the dark. We must learn to adapt and shine in the light – where properties always look better. As a real estate agent, you now have the tools at your disposal that salesmen before you could only dream of.
The days of knocking on doors, handing out open-house flyers, or taking professional photos that can cost upwards of $1000 are over.
Although these methods can still be used in conjunction with today’s latest technology and will surely help in your efforts to increase property sales, real estate agents need to take a step forward into the future and with them, their business to the next level.
Imagery is one of the greatest tools a real estate agent has in their arsenal when it comes to showcasing and marketing a property. A survey conducted by the Realtors’ association says that when it comes to web features that buyers consider “very useful,” 83 percent cited pictures, 81 percent cited detailed property information and 60 percent cited virtual tours.
Whether you are selling a house, condo, or luxury villa, the photos you take and present to potential buyers are ultimately the key to the success or failure of a sale. This statement leads to a bigger question.
What are real estate agents doing to make sure that their property photos are a roof above the rest?
Again, photos of your real estate listings play a crucial role in your efforts to market and make sales. Photographs need to be as spectacular as possible; buyers look at these photographs and form opinions based on what they see.
It’s no wonder that for the past 20 years, since technology evolved and we were able to take our businesses online, real estate agents have been paying top dollar for professional photographers. This has been the standard practice for most real estate agents who understand their business and market and are willing to pay in order to sell.
As a real estate agent of 2021, life has changed drastically for all but the one continuous is always technology. Have you stopped for a second to take into account what new tools are out there for me to add to my marketing efforts? Is paying for photographers to take pictures that highlight and accentuate my property still necessary? and if not, what other methods can I use to spend less but still create stunning imagery that captivates and increases my sales?
With new technology comes better ways to find leads, engage and connect with potential buyers, ultimately leading to more sales. This is where taking steps towards a better future becomes important because as of now current real estate agents are still falling for the trap of staying stagnant by spending a fortune on photographers or using their outdated phones to snap a quick unmemorable photo.
Those who are ready to evolve and take their business to the next level will have an eye on the latest trends and features when it comes to cutting-edge property photographs.
