This is an especially busy time of year for our marketing team. We are traveling to all parts of the Cape to photograph and video homes to help homeowners improve their listings. (We’ve now worked in over 550 homes!) The truth is, we all need to “up our game” to succeed in the growing rental industry where vacationers have more homes to choose from.

Here are a few “Before and After” examples of homes I have photographed in the last year. If you are interested in learning more, please visit our marketing page or email me at Becky@weneedavacation.com.

Edgartown vacation rental

Tip – Frame the picture well. Try not to cut off parts of the furniture.

Orleans vacation rental

Tip – Turn on all the lights in the room. Remember, we’re trying to make the house look as bright and summer like as possible!

Falmouth vacation rental

Tip – Take a step back and open the shades. Windows are hard. If possible, focus the camera to pick up some greenery through the windows.

West Falmouth vacation rental

 Tip – Do some simple staging. Set the dining room table, put out flowers. Definitely make all the beds!
