Dogs Do Not Sell Homes!!! Reader's Digest - Wrong Again!

Dogs Do Not Sell Homes!!!

Who would have thought that Reader's Digest would have two goofs in one issue!

One article talks about how a couple in Chicago purposely put their dog in all the photos of an apartment that they were renting, but the article title says they sold their home.  It crows that you don't need an agent to rent an apartment if  you have a cute doggie in every photo.  It says that the couple rented their apartment out in only 24 hours because of the cute doggie.

This can't be further from the truth for selling homes!  Animals are best left out of the photos entirely.  Even if you have the most beautiful dog, cat or turtle ever conceived, potential buyers sometimes won't even look at a property with obvious animal occupation.  Some people are afraid of dogs or cats.  However, most people don't want to deal with the inevitable spots on the rug, dander that sets off their allergies, or the rub spots that kitties leave behind, or any one of a hundred negative things that people who don't have pets imagine that pets cause.

Why would you want to narrow the set of prospective buyers before they can ever see the property?

Keep Pets Out Of Property Photos!
