Home Staging: Make Those Photos Count

More than 80 percent of U.S. buyers went online while house hunting, and they rated pictures as the most helpful tool in their search, according to a National Association of Realtors survey of buyers and sellers. The survey also found that 24 percent of homebuyers got their first look at their home online last year, up from only 2 percent in 1997.

Good photos, made better with home staging, are becoming more and more crucial. Surveys have shown that listings with inside and outside photos or video go to the top of the list. Minimal photos next. Poor photos next. Exterior only photo next. No photos last.
