·A Comprehensive Yet Concise
Property Description.
·Use the title effectively
i.e. "Great Family Home close to schools etc.”
·Use the title to advertise
any bonus i.e. "Big Yard, Pool etc.”
·List the description in a
logical order i.e.” kitchen, family and entertainment
areas, then bedrooms and bathrooms, followed by outdoors – yard, garage, etc.
·List any positives about
location i.e. "close to schools, shops, public transport
·List important features
like security, fences, alarms etc.
·Always be clear about Pets
·Use bullet points rather
than long sentences and paragraphs
·Professional Photos always helps
·When photographing the
property Remove items that distract from
the property, e.g. cars in the driveway and rubbish bins
·Try taking the shot on an angle
rather than directly in front of the house, If the exterior of the building is
not the most visually appealing
·Don’t take photos of items not
included in the lease i.e. furniture
·When taking interior photos, turn
on the lights, use the flash and open window coverings.
·Avoid having the camera flash
reflected in the shower screen and the mirror and close toilet lids
·Try using a camera tripod at a
lower height, or sit on a chair to take the photograph. The best room shots are
often gained by having the camera at a lower height than eye level
·Consider using video to
advertise, sites allow for this.
·Use a ‘FOR RENT” sign
·Make sure your property is
clean and tidy for inspection
·Make sure nothing is broken
·Consider a new coat of paint
inside and out. Peeling paint can considerably lessen the rent you are asking
for
·Trim overhanging trees, weed
garden beds, and keep the lawn mown and get rid of cobwebs
