Does professional photography actually help sell a home?

Professional photography is one of the highest-ROI investments in a listing. Data shows professionally photographed listings sell 32% faster and command $3,400 to $11,200 more than comparable properties with standard imagery. Since 97% of buyers start their search online, the digital presentation is your first negotiation. A weak lead photo means buyers scroll past before they ever see the property.
