For the best results in selling your house, utilize this checklist to find a photographer that can maximize your profit(s):
- Check Google or Yelp reviews – Look for detailed feedback on image quality, punctuality, and communication, not just star ratings.
- Review their portfolio – Visit the photographer’s website or social media. View at least 3–5 full projects to judge consistency and lighting quality.
- Confirm experience – Ask how many homes or properties they’ve photographed in your area or price range.
- Verify contact details – Make sure the phone number, email, and website match across Google, Yelp, or professional directories.
- Look at project variety – Ensure they’ve handled both interior and exterior shots, and understand local architecture or lighting conditions.
- Ask about services – Check whether they provide drone shots, 3D/virtual tours, floor plans, or twilight sessions.
- Compare turnaround times – Typical delivery should be within 2–5 days after the shoot.
- Request pricing upfront – A clear quote with number of images, editing level, and delivery format prevents surprises.
- Confirm rights and usage – You should have permission to use the photos in all marketing materials and MLS listings.
