Start with the biggest visual wins
A seller does not need to redecorate the whole home. The checklist prioritizes the simple tasks that improve almost every photograph.
- Clear visible clutter and personal items
- Replace burned-out or mismatched bulbs
- Open blinds, straighten textiles and plan for pets
Work room by room
Kitchen, living, bedroom and bathroom guidance makes the preparation feel manageable and gives the agent an objective list to share.
- Clear counters and sinks
- Make beds and align towels
- Turn screens and ceiling fans off
Finish outside
The exterior is often the first image buyers see. The guide includes driveway, patio, seasonal and lakefront preparation reminders.
- Move vehicles and bins
- Arrange outdoor furniture
- Clear docks and showcase safe shoreline access
Put it into practice
Prepare the home, then choose the coverage.
Use this checklist before HDR listing photography. Send the seller the pre-shoot email templates to reinforce the date, access details, and final preparation steps.
