Photography Tips for Improving the Quality of Your Rental Property Listings

Are you planning on managing your rental properties yourself? If so, like many owners you will also be listing those properties online and those listings should include photos. 

Sadly, many owners use old photos of their properties in their listings and these pictures are usually the primary reason why their properties attract less interest from renters. As the top real estate management company in San Jose, we can tell you that taking great photos all comes down to the following things. 

Clean Up the Property First 

If it’s been a while since the property was painted or cleaned up, you should hire someone to get your San Jose rental property in the best shape possible because that dirt will show in pictures and potential renters will not be interested in visiting your property in person. 

Use Great Lightening 

Regardless if you’re taking pictures indoors or outdoors, you want to make sure that your pictures are always well lit because great lightning will always show the best version of your property possible. 

While taking photos of your property you should also be mindful to take pictures of the features that the property offers especially if it has a large two car garage, indoor laundry room, swimming pool or spa. 

Don’t Sweat the Angle, Edit Later 

Last of all, but most important, when taking photos of your rental property it’s important to remember that you can always edit your pictures later so if you only have a few minutes to take some pictures you can easily get the job done with confidence that you can edit those pictures at home or on your office PC.
