Love the View, But It Does Not Go First!

A picture is worth a 1000 words, especially when selling real estate...

No doubt everyone loves the view from the porch, but please don't put it first in MLS. It's very important to make sure that when you enter a listing in MLS that the first photo is of the outside of the structure, NOT the landscape or view from the property. Those make great additional photos but the first photo must be of the structure as per our rules. There will be a $25.00 fine for all listings without a picture of the structure in the first photo slot for any improved listings.

Also make sure you add a good quality photo and avoid pictures taken with a cell phone camera. The reason behind this is that the listing information is sent to the advertising websites almost immediately. Even though you may plan to update the photo later, the advertising websites do always look for any new pictures and will use a bad picture on their websites, and that will not put your listing in the best light, nor help in your marketing efforts.
