Preparing Your Property

•   Photography will take no more than 2 hours. I will be photographing both the interior and exterior of your home, as well as all its rooms. I normally do not photograph the garage unless it has special features.

•   Make me aware of anything unusual that you want photographed.

•   Keep pets in the garage or out of sight

•   Remove all vehicles from driveways and do not park directly in front of the house.

•   Move garbage cans out of sight.

•   Remove all garden tools, including hoses and sprinklers.

•   Mow and rake the yard

•   Sweep driveways, sidewalks, and patios

•   Clear off countertops in the kitchen and bathroom areas

•   Remove photos, notes, and papers from the refrigerator

•   Turn ceiling fans and televisions off.

•   De-clutter rooms that may be excessively furnished. They do not photograph well.

•   Make all beds and tidy bedrooms. Clothes hung or folded and put away.

•   Remove piles of newspaper and magazines.

•   Place trash cans out of view in a closet or cupboard.
