What I notice within 5 minutes of walking into a property.
I'm rarely thinking about cushions when I first walk into a property!
I'm looking at:
Where does my eye go?
Can I understand each room immediately?
Does the furniture show its true scale?
What will the camera see?
Is anything distracting from the property itself?
Sometimes the answer is staging.
Sometimes it's moving three pieces of furniture.
Sometimes it's taking things away.
The skill is knowing the difference.
