Why does Houzeo have a limit of 30 photos per listing, while other platforms allow for more images?

The 30-photo limit you encounter during the upload process is determined by the guidelines of the local MLS.  Each MLS has its own rules on the maximum number of photos allowed for a listing, and Houzeo must comply with these to ensure listings are properly syndicated to the MLS and other platforms. To make the most of this limit, select high-quality images that best highlight your property. Additionally, should you wish to include more images, you are welcome to upload additional photos which will be displayed exclusively on Houzeo's platform.

These limits are subject to change, and can be updated by the MLS board. It's best to check with your local MLS for the latest guidelines.
