    Ballad of a landlord .. Rant

    Sometimes its not the best idea to take the first tenant who wants the property. They might just be like the previous one who did a runner. Stay calm and focussed.

    Ballad of a landlord .. Rant

    Perception can sometimes be reality. I hate pro photos that make a terrible house look like way better than it should. However for a house that is decent, pro photos can help attract people who would have otherwise not bothered looking.

    It may look like one in real life. But in the photo it looks it was reno'ed about 15 years ago.

    Ballad of a landlord .. Rant

    Having resurfaced a bathtub in my IP i would NEVER do it again. $650 down the drain. Lasted about 12 months.... was guaranteed for 6 years (with a whole bunch of conditions). I would have been better off painting it myself. Looked good for the first 3 months, then it just started getting worse.

    It was a complete bathroom reno. Existing tiles removed and white tiles put on.

    Ballad of a landlord .. Rant

    Yep, they are pro pics. Cost $129 from the PM. It probably is the lighting, plus some photoshop and a decent camera (there's a reason DSLR's are more expensive than mobile phones with cameras). I've got a DSLR and seriously just leaving the settings on full auto and pressing shoot, the photos...

    Pics of my sisters unit. Pics used by the selling agent and Pics by professional photography (post reno). But you can see the difference in just the pic of the outside block. Roughly same angle. Actual kitchen size: 3.2 wide x 3.5 deep

    Actually the photos aren't that nice at all. Its simply because the place has been done up decently. The cost my PM charges is $129 for 5 photos. Money well spent i reckon.

    Its because your photos suck. There is honestly nothing appealing about it. The kitchen looks old and small. What may look large in person isn't always reflected in photos (especially poorly taken ones). Most people do not have the spatial ability to see past what is in a photo. You have a...

    Sure ill buy it. :) Give you top price too $300k thats my final offer :p Seriously, your photos suck. Get better photos. And not photos with your camera phone. Good photos can help attract more tenants. Also taking it off and relisting helps too. I'm not sure if listing several days...

    Ballad of a landlord .. Rant

    I think professional photos are a must. Its a small investment and you can reuse them over and over again. Those pics you have aren't that appealing - random paint tins, some black wire streaking along the floor etc. If the professional photos help a place get rented out a few days...
