Tools of the Trade Tip 5

The fifth Tools of the Trade Tip is on how to edit the photos you take of your homes.  I use Corel's Paint Shop Pro XI.  Paint Shop Pro (PSP) got bought out by Corel a few years ago and Corel continues PSP's annual upgrade.  There has just been a new release but I have not bought it yet.

While PSP ranges in price from $99 to $129 retail, one can get it on eBay for as low as $20 to $25.

While I am not very talented in using this very powerful tool, below are just a few examples of what can be done all with the same photo.  The original photo is the first one with all the other photos being cropped, text and graphics added, shape altered, etc.  I realize the photos that were cropped needed to be brightened up some but I didn't have time to play with them for this blog.  I just wanted to demo some of the things that could be done using this very powerful tool.

Do you have a house to sell?  

I have lots of listing options to choose from,
I am the ONLY local Realtor who lists on all 3 MLS's (Lawrence, Kansas City, and Topeka),
has a seller narrated video, has a virtual tour, and who lists your house on more than 10,000 websites.  

This means you will not receive better marketing anywhere else.  

I am also known as the toughest negotiator in the area for my clients.  

Let me show you how your house compares with other comparable houses "Active" on the MLS
right now and how long it should take to sell based on comparable SOLD's in the past year.
