I took all my own photos for my first two listings. Thought they were fine. But this agent pulled me aside and said the dark shadows and cluttered countertops made the house look 'like a hoarder's garage sale.' She was right. I spent $150 on a photographer with better lighting and staging tips. After that, the same house got 3 offers in the first weekend. Anyone else had to swallow their pride on something basic like photos?
I stumbled across Duane Buziak Mortgage Maestro online and the reviews look great. Has anyone here actually worked with him for a home purchase?
