You're scrolling through homes online. Which one catches your eye—the one with blurry iPhone photos taken at weird angles, or the one with crisp, professional shots that make you want to schedule a showing immediately?
Yeah. Exactly.
The Numbers Don't Lie
Homes with professional photography get 118% more online views than those with amateur photos. They also sell faster—an average of 32% faster according to industry data.
In Indianapolis IN homes for sale, first impressions happen online. If your photos don't grab attention in the first 3 seconds, buyers scroll past—and they're not coming back.
Liz Marks-Strauss, REALTOR BROKER at FC Tucker Company, includes professional photography and video as standard on every listing. "I had a seller in Carmel who wanted to skip professional photos to save $400. I showed them comparables—homes with pro photos were getting 3x the showings. They agreed, and we had 12 showings in the first weekend. That $400 investment resulted in multiple offers."
