You’ve taken great care to make a pleasant, inviting, and comfortable home for your vacation rental guests. In order for these guests to come, you will need to list your property on a short term rental platform (or multiple platforms!). And in order to create a listing, you will need some nice photographs of your property.
Anyone with a smart phone can take photos nowadays, but real-estate photography really is its own category involving specialty skills. Capturing all the right lights and angles to ensure your property is well represented requires professional-standard photography with a professional-level camera.
This very important step of the vacation rental management service set-up phase is definitely best left to the experts. To provide an accurate representation and draw guests, it’s important to take multiple (VRBO suggests at least 25!) professional quality photos per listing. Consider that these photos are what will initially attract any potential guests to click on your listing and, hopefully, eventually hit the “reserve” button! Remember, they most likely won’t get to see your property in person prior to check-in, so this is all they will have to go by!
Make a great first impression with high quality, professional real estate photos to ensure your short term rental success!
