Scheduling
When scheduling an appointment, expect a wait of a day or two. You can contact Eric directly via email (eric@lighthousevisual.com) or by phone or text message (804-840-8079). Photographers will confirm date, time, and location, in addition to other details about the shoot.
On-site expectations:
First, you can expect our photographers to show up on time and ready to work. It’s our goal for as much to be squared away as possible before arriving. Please consult the pre-shoot checklist provided for specific items to address prior to a shoot.
Once we arrive, photographers will generally go through the house to see how it is staged. They may offer advice on staging or anything else they feel could help you get the most out of the shoot.
Content Delivery
Photos will be delivered the following day. Expect them to arrive typically before noon. They will be delivered to you by email and in your listing portal. Payment is required to unlock the content.
Listing Portal:
All content will live in your Listing Portal. In this portal, you’ll have the ability to make property websites, you’ll have a design center, and you’ll be able to manage all aspects of the content and the listing. All leads generated will be sent to this portal.
Property Websites
Property websites are free with every listing. You can tailor each website to specific listings. You will be provided one that is branded and another that is unbranded. Branded property websites are best for social media and email marketing for listings! They help generate leads and will notify you with each one!
Flyer Design Center:
These easy-to-make flyers are a valuable marketing piece that we include as a free add-on. Once the listing website is complete, it’s a one-step process to generate a flyer for the listing. Use these for email and social media campaigns.
Customer Support
Lighthouse Visuals strives to be accessible whenever clients need us. Eric can be reached via email and by phone. If he is unavailable, we have an entire administrative team ready to address any needs you may have. Your satisfaction is always guaranteed or your content is free.
Highlights of Services:
HDR photography: High-dynamic range images use multiple photos taken at different exposures to create an image that is as true to what the human eye sees as possible. This is what you’re looking for if you want the highest quality images for your listings.
Virtual tours: Let potential buyers explore your listings from anywhere! These 3-D tours are immersive and show every angle of every room in a house. They’re proven to sell homes faster and elevate an agent’s brand.
Video: It’s one of the fastest-growing marketing tools in real estate. The National Association of Realtors reported that almost 75 percent of homeowners said they’re more likely to list with agents who use video! Create captivating showcases for listings that are sure to get inquiries!
Floor plan: An important visual aid to include in all listings. For single-family detached homes, we measure paint-to-paint and add a standard of 6 inches to account for the exterior width of walls. For apartments and townhomes, we only measure paint-to-paint. You’ll get room measurements, visual aids, and an approximate gross total square footage. Save time with this add-on!
Virtual staging: Another add-on that will save you time and energy, virtual staging is a post-production offering that allows us to fill in an empty room with decorations and furniture. Save money by having the house staged virtually!
Design services: Photo manipulation can be used to de-clutter images or fix imperfections in a room. One of our most popular design offerings is virtual dusk. It can take a daytime photo of the exterior of a home and turn it into an eye-catching twilight shot. These are proven to drive engagement in listings.
