Declutter For Better Listing Photos

Your listing photos are doing more selling than you think and sometimes it’s the tiniest, most normal household habits that quietly wreck a great shot. We’re back with a playful but genuinely useful countdown of the top 10 things Megan removes from clients’ real estate photography before a home goes live online, because buyers scroll fast and clutter gives them an excuse to click away.We start with easy wins that make a kitchen look expensive and spacious: ditch the tea towel on the oven door, clear the benchtops, and keep the focus on clean surfaces and storage. From there we get into what makes rooms feel smaller in photos, like rugs covering new carpet and crowded drawers and shelves that pull the eye everywhere except the room’s size. If you’re selling a house, these quick decluttering and home staging tweaks can lift your property marketing without spending a cent.Then we hit the spots where real life shows most: coat racks, shoe piles at the front door (very Kiwi), and windowsills that photographers may need clear so they can handle light and sky edits. We also talk “controversial” items and privacy, including why it’s smart to remove family photos and anything that identifies your job or routine. And yes, we go fully bathroom-specific, from toilet mats to the item Megan removes from almost every home, plus the great toilet roll over-or-under debate.If you found this helpful, hit subscribe, share it with a mate who’s about to list, and leave us a review so more Kiwi sellers can find the show.Send us Fan Mail Support the showBuy your first home in NZ Weekly Webinars You thought it's not possible or the dream is too far away?
