UK property buyers have developed increasingly sophisticated expectations for online listings. With platforms like Rightmove and Zoopla dominating the market, buyers are accustomed to browsing dozens of properties quickly, making first impressions crucial.
Rightmove and Zoopla users exhibit specific browsing patterns that UK estate agents must consider. The thumbnail image and first few photos are critical for capturing attention in search results.
Photography expectations vary across different UK regions, with London and South East buyers typically having the highest standards, while rural markets may be more forgiving of amateur photography.
With the average UK property taking 6-8 weeks to sell, poor photography can significantly extend this timeline, costing sellers in mortgage payments, council tax, and opportunity costs.
