The TOWN difference No matter how beautifully-presented a home is, we always walk through the property to fine-tune, adjusting blinds, cushions and sometimes furniture as we go.

In property photography, it really is a case of ‘Less Is More’.

Helpful Interior Tips DECLUTTERTaking the time to put away any clutter is a good starting point - kids toys, pet beds, fridge magnets, bins, toiletries, bath mats and calendars can be a real eye sore in property photos. This will free up our time to focus on the features and getting the right angles and editorial shots. LIGHTINGEnsure all light bulbs are working. A blown light stands out noticeably. We can edit these in if need be, however this can sometimes look unnatural. Exterior lights are a big one to get the right glow, pool lights and flood lights should be working. FRAGRANCETo create a welcoming atmosphere during an open home, consider simmering a pot of water with herbs and citrus on the stove. This simple touch not only masks any unwanted odours but also infuses the space with a fresh, inviting scent that makes potential buyers feel right at home.

CLEAN WINDOWSThis is a big one! This can really accentuate the view, whether it be gardens and greenery, ocean or even just a nice blue sky - and a dirty window is the first thing a potential buyer sees in a photograph. LANDSCAPINGTake the time to tidy up outdoor spaces—mow the lawns, clean the driveways and concrete, and prune or weed the gardens as needed. Clear away leaves from driveways and gutters, and be sure to remove pet beds, toys, and any waste. This will enhance curb appeal and create a welcoming first impression. OUTDOOR LIVINGEnsure that all outdoor furniture is clean and inviting, and take the time to tidy up the pool area. Remove any visible equipment and cover or store pool supplies to maintain a polished look. This attention to detail will enhance the overall aesthetic and make outdoor spaces more appealing to potential buyers. Helpful Exterior Tips

POPS OF COLOURFinally, pops of colour are a great way to bring the interiors to life.

These natural touches not only enhance visual appeal but also bring a sense of warmth, making spaces feel more welcoming to potential buyers.
