  • Are you adding photos, or replacing existing listing photos?
  • Specifying a Photo Order - Prior to uploading, please name your photo files according to the preferred photo order (Example: photo1.jpg, photo2.jpg, etc.). In our experience, sending photo descriptions to specify an order leaves room for error (is that a living room or a family room?), and is time-consuming for both of us.
     
    Large Files Sizes? - If your photo file sizes are large (>2 MB), e-mailing photos as attachments to mlsbydan@gmail.com, or using a sharing site like www.wetransfer.com is best for ensuring their successful delivery. See also: How to Resize A Picture (youTube Tutorial).

  •  Blurry Images?

    The most common causes for blurry images are:

    • using low-quality photos (less than the recommended resolution below)
    • using vertically-oriented photos, which are stretched or have borders added to them to fit the MLS gallery.

    Ideal Photo Size / Dimensions

    Recommended photo resolution is 1024x768 or similar, with a horizontal (landscape) orientation. Vertically oriented photos may be skewed, or have black bars added to the sides on some websites.

    File Types:

    Upload .jpg / .jpeg photo files or .pdfs to this form. We no longer accept .png photo files as they are not compatible for upload in most systems.

    Please use a PNG to JPG converter website so that your photo files are compatible.

    • You have indicated that you are replacing some current photos, while keeping others. Please provide brief instructions or descriptions of photos to be removed below.

      Please note that it is often easiest to re-submit all photos with your new photo order indicated in the file names, rather than submitting detailed instructions.

    • Note: Most listing packages include up to 6 photos. If you choose to upgrade, you will be redirected to a secure PayPal checkout page upon submitting this form. You may upload all photos to this form prior to checkout.

    • Important: Before submitting photos, read this carefully.

       

      We have had sellers settle for thousands of dollars with photographers over unauthorized photo use...

      The MLS can, and has, issued fines of $300 per unauthorized photo...

       

      • If photos have previously appeared on the Multiple Listing Service under a different broker, we cannot re-post them unless the broker gives their permission in writing. 
      • This is true even if you took the photos or hired someone to take the photos. If another agent posted them first and we don't get their acknowledgment, MLS can, and does issue fines.
      • If photos were taken by a photographer, we cannot post them unless you have clear written rights for their use this time, noting that some photo licenses only cover one listing and might no longer be valid for use.
      • Copyright Infringement: It is becoming increasingly common for photographers to sue for copyright infringement when their real estate photos are re-used, and we have had sellers settle for thousands of dollars over unauthorized photo use.
      • MLS Fines: The MLS can and has issued fines of $300 per unauthorized photo.
      • Condo / HOA Common Photos:  Do not assume that common area photos from your HOA are free for use without permission. This is one of the most common causes of photo use issues.
        • By submitting this form (and also agreed to in our listing agreement), Seller warrants that any listing photos provided are their own, or that they have written permission to use them, and accepts full responsibility and liability for the use of photos provided.
        • Seller agrees to defend and reimburse Sell Your Home Services and/or broker Dan Demers for any expenses incurred, including but not limited to fines, judgments, legal expenses, settlements, and other damages to business and reputation arising from unauthorized use of photos.
      • This is serious, and based on actual, expensive experience. 
      • Do not send us photos unless you have personally taken them, or you have written permission to use them.
