Prepping for Real Estate Photos? Why You Need a Deep Clean First 🏡✨
Thinking of listing your home or rental? One of the most important steps before calling the photographer isn’t staging, lighting, or even fixing that squeaky door—it’s deep cleaning. 📸✨ Why? Because when it comes to real estate photos, every speck of dust, streak on a mirror, and fingerprint on a light switch shows. First impressions are everything in real estate, and nothing says “well-maintained” like a sparkling clean home.
At TIDYB, we’ve seen the difference a deep clean makes—not just in the listing photos but in the number of showings and how fast a property sells. Whether you’re a homeowner, landlord, or Airbnb host, prepping your space with a professional deep cleaning gives your property the visual edge it needs in today’s competitive market.

Why Deep Cleaning Before Photos Is a Must
Photos are your home’s first online handshake. In just a few seconds, buyers decide whether they want to see more or scroll past. Dusty baseboards, foggy mirrors, stained appliances, and pet odors? 📉 That’s a hard pass.
