What to photograph
Cover the spaces that help people understand the property. Useful coverage matters more than repeated angles.
Main living room
Shoot from a corner so the full room, windows, and natural light are visible.
Bedroom
Show the bed area, wardrobe space, and window. Include all bedrooms when possible.
Kitchen
Show worktop, appliances, storage, and general condition.
Bathroom
Show toilet, basin, shower or bath, and overall condition.
Entrance and exterior
The entrance helps people recognize the property when they arrive.
Balcony, garden, or parking
Outdoor space helps people understand the property. Include it even if it is small.
See the difference
Same listing, two different photo strategies.
This creates more questions than confidence.
This lets people compare quickly before contacting you.
Make photos match reality
Use recent and realistic photographs of the actual condition. If the walls need painting or the bathroom is dated, show it honestly.
What to avoid
These issues make the listing harder to understand.
- Blurry photos or screenshots.
- Heavy filters or unrealistic editing.
- Repeated photos of the same room presented as additional coverage.
- Only exterior photos with no interior.
- Photos that do not match the description.
- Identity documents, receipts, account details, or personal papers visible in photos.
- Contact details or watermarks pasted over the image.
What Quality checked reviewers look for
Reviewers look for useful coverage of the main spaces, realistic condition, and whether photos match the property description. A furnished listing should show the furniture.
Summary
Strong photos do
- Show the main spaces clearly.
- Help people understand condition before contact.
- Support a smoother Quality checked review.
Strong photos do not
- Guarantee that the listing will be approved.
- Replace accurate price, location, and written details.
- Hide defects that visitors will see in person.
