Today’s Real Estate market is geared toward people browsing photos and videos of properties as the first step toward finding a home.

Many people will not even contact a realtor until they have searched to get a feel for the homes on the market. One of the places that many go to is Zillow.com.

The good news for most selling is that the market is so hot that most properties in my North Metro Atlanta, Georgia market are in need for a short time. Some houses have multiple offers within minutes of going on the market.

You would think with this hot market; photos are not needed. However, if you have photos, people will possibly bid on your house just from seeing the images. They cannot risk losing a place waiting to schedule an appointment.

I like taking all the essential photos of all the rooms, but I also believe most homes would benefit from a couple of drone shots.

Taking photos from the ground doesn’t always show off your property in the best way.

It would help if you still had all the shots of the home.

I like to shoot many of the rooms from opposite corners so that you can get a feel for the space.

Besides those inside shots, I try and get the outside views that people are looking to see.
