Great pictures are the key to a successful flatshare advert. Good visual content can get you 94% more views and the more views you have, the more likely you will get an offer.
To help you find your new flatmate, we’ve come up with these top 5 tips for posting the perfect photos of your spare room.
Natural Light
Let in as much natural light as possible. Our eyes are evolved to take in the sun’s light, and everything (nightclub misadventures aside) looks better bathed in its full-spectrum glory.
Tidy up
Yes – its handy keeping the ironing board out because you use it all the time. But a flatshare listing picture can’t be handy. It can only be pretty. So the ironing needs to go back in the cupboard guy ‘n’ gals.
Get in the Frame!
What do people looking for a new flatshare fear the most? Weirdos. If you’re not too shy, getting a pic of you and your fellow flatmates into the post is a great idea, right? And if you have a cute pet, even better! Show people that you don’t have two heads or a prison tattoo and you’re already at an advantage.
Add a Splash of Colour
Your new flatmate will be scrolling through hundreds of similar pictures. Although neutral tones are always best for spare rooms, in your photo, treat the creams and whites as a background on which to add a splash of eye-catching colour.
Include Common Space
Even if you’re only advertising a spare room, our users want to know what the whole flat is like. So be sure to include pictures of the loo, kitchen and living room as well. And be sure to apply the above tips to those pictures, too!
