Previewing Homes for your Buyers with Google Picasa
Do you serve out of state buyers? I serve clients that are from out of state or even from another country. Lately, there have been some occasions when my buyers are interested in a home that I've sent them where there is only "one" picture or pictures in the Multiple Listing that are very poorly taken.
You may say that the home is "bank owned" or in "foreclosure" - no extra photos are necessary, too much work. Please take the time to add additional photos and upload it into the MLS. Did you know that buyers skip right over a property if it has only one picture - you don't want to miss out on a sale?
When I go out and preview homes for my buyers, I take tons of pictures for my buyers to see the true condition of a home - inside, outside, garage, neighborhood all. A great web site for uploading and hosting your web albums online for private and business is Google's Picasa. If you don't have a Google account, please sign up for your free . 
You can also create documents, readers, calendars, video, and Google analytics just to name a few..... my topic today is Google's Picasa. After you created an account and downloaded the Picasa's application on your computer, you want to upload the pictures of the home 
from you camera to your computer to Picasa's Web Albums for your buyer to preview. Create an Album with the address of the home for example, you can edit and rearrange the pictures, comment on each picture and click on "Share", which sends an invitation for viewing to your buyer - your buyer will love it even if they don't buy this particular home. I'm sure they will be impressed by your service.
Why don't you give it a try, it is well worth your time!
