Before and After Decluttering a Space
If you're looking to rent your property, high-quality photos are essential to attracting potential tenants. In order to showcase your property in its best light, it's important to prepare your space before the photo shoot. Here are 5 tips from a property management company to help you get your property ready for advertising photos:
Declutter and Organize
Before the photographer arrives, remove any unnecessary items from the space and organize what's left. This will create a more spacious and inviting atmosphere in your photos.
Clean and De-personalize
A clean and tidy space is essential for attracting potential buyers or tenants. Dust, vacuum, and mop the floors, and wash windows and mirrors. Additionally, remove any personal items, such as family photos or items of a personal nature, to help potential buyers or tenants envision themselves in the space.
Brighten Up Your Space
Good lighting is key to making your space look attractive in photos. Open curtains and blinds to let in as much natural light as possible, and turn on all the lights in the room to create a bright and cheerful atmosphere.
Stage Your Furniture and Accessorize (If Occupied)
If you are still living in your property when the photos are taken, staging your furniture in an attractive and functional way will help create a sense of flow and balance in the photos. Move furniture to create open spaces and group pieces together to create cozy, inviting areas. However, if the property is vacant, a clean and empty space is also acceptable.
Choose a Neutral Color Scheme
Using neutral colors in your space can help create a clean and harmonious look in your photos. Choose soft, warm colors for the walls and accessories to create a welcoming atmosphere.
By following these tips, you'll be well on your way to creating a beautiful and attractive property for your advertising photos. Good luck!
