"Every agent has taken at least one photo they wish they could erase from the MLS. Maybe the lighting was harsh, the toilet lid was up or your reflection made a surprise appearance in the bathroom mirror. Trust me, it happens. Bad real estate photos don't just spark a laugh in your group chat, but they can make great listings look mediocre at best. Worse than that, bad listing photos can cost you clients, showings and offers."
"A tilted photo is like nails on a chalkboard for buyers. They see slanted floors and leaning doorframes and suddenly that solid house looks like it's sliding downhill and starts setting off warning signals. It gives the impression of carelessness and poor maintenance. If your photos look careless, the buyers assume the seller might be too. Takeaway: Use your camera's gridlines or a tripod to keep things straight. Perfectly level lines instantly make a space feel well cared for, calm and balanced."
Bad real estate photos can make great listings look mediocre and can cost agents clients, showings and offers. Common mistakes include crooked angles, dim or insufficient lighting, distracting elements like toilet lids, reflections, stray pets, and poor composition. Crooked photos create impressions of carelessness and potential maintenance issues. Poor lighting hides features and shrinks perceived space. Simple fixes include using camera gridlines or a tripod for level shots, maximizing natural light, opening blinds, and adding lamps when needed. Small, practical tweaks to composition and lighting can significantly improve listing appeal and buyer engagement.
