Fast forward to the 21st century, and the National Golf Association estimates that "nearly 25 million people played golf on a golf course in the United States in 2020."

When you're ready to sell your house, first impressions have a big impact in today's competitive market. Our real estate agents at Badger Peabody & Smith Realty know that eye-catching listing photos can be the key to selling instead of having your property sit unsold. High-quality pictures highlight your home's top features and help possible buyers picture themselves living there.

  Think of your home as a model space that should spark a buyer's imagination. Tuck away anything that tells your personal story—family photos, vacation souvenirs, or bold décor choices. Instead, aim for a clean, understated look that highlights the room's potential. Surfaces like countertops and side tables should be mostly bare, with only one or two accents that suggest comfort without distraction. If a room feels tight or cluttered, remove extra chairs or small furniture pieces that interrupt the flow. Empty space speaks louder in photos, helping each room feel larger and more inviting.
