I have spent more hours than I should probably admit searching through real estate listings. One of my biggest pet peaves is photos that are so bad you can't tell if it's worth a drive by and, worse no photos at all. I think every realtor out there should be listening. Sincerely ObsessedInvestor Thank you for this!

One good picture may be much more valuable than a good description. There were studies to establish where our attention goes on a webpage and there were comments that if buyer visually doesn’t remember something he is unlikely to return to it even if he scrolls back. Good estate agents often use a good photographer to present the property in the best light. Absolutely right! One good picture may be much more valuable than a good description.

It is common practice for the MLS to dump pictures and sometimes even text to old listings. In my opinion, Sue, you did a disservice to your friend and the agent who eventual sold the house. Most MLS did not even offer the agent an upload of more than one picture back then. EIGHT + YEARS AGO? Someone has too much time on their hands and....Well, I'll let it go at that. EIGHT + YEARS AGO?

This was before I was a realtor, so I was not the agent. The home wasn't getting any showings and we couldn't understand why. He got nervous and days on the market was getting higher. He ended up accepting a very low price for the home which was also located in a very exclusive town. I don't know what made me do this, but recently I pulled the listing and there were NO PICTURES! The description didn't even elaborate on the quality renovations in the home. He used imported tiles from Italy, etc.... I sent the listing to him and needless to say he is pretty angry, but I don't think there is much that can be done at this point.
