Can I upload the photos that I have clicked myself or do I need a professional photographer?
You are welcome to upload your own photographs of the property, but please make sure to adhere to certain
MLS guidelines. Ensure that there are no visible individuals in the photos and avoid any form of branding or identifiable marks. This helps maintain privacy and professionalism in your listing, presenting your property in the best possible light without any distractions.
For a professional photographer, it is recommended by the NAR (National Association of Realtors) to have one. Your listing will be active on the MLS and you will be competing with thousands of other home sellers who are listing their property through a different route. Read this
