Remember, proper preparation of your property or home will ensure the best results and will help sell your property or home faster.

In preparation for a Photoshoot we recommend that you stage your property or home as you would for an open house or showing. We ask that your property or home is tidy, clean, clutter free, pets and any pet paraphernalia put away, and personal photos put away. Please note, due to liability reasons, our photographers are not allowed to move things around in the home; our photographers shoot the property AS-IS when we arrive. We also ask that no other tradespeople such as painters, plumbers, handymen, stagers or other people are present during the shoot. Have the home and tradespeople done and completed the day before the shoot.

Use the commonsense approach when preparing your property or home for a photoshoot.
