Why You Should Schedule Exterior Listing Photos Now, Even If You’re Listing This Winter

August 14, 2025  •  Leave a Comment

If you’re a homeowner or real estate agent planning to list a property this winter, now is the time to think ahead, especially when it comes to exterior photos.

Here’s why scheduling professional exterior listing photos in late summer or early fall is one of the smartest moves you can make:


1. Winter Photos Don’t Sell as Well

Snow, bare trees, gray skies, and dead landscaping don’t exactly scream “dream home.” Winter listing photos often appear cold, uninviting, and lack the curb appeal that buyers desire. If your property looks like it was photographed in a blizzard, you may be losing showings before they even happen.


2. Curb Appeal is a Year-Round Selling Tool

Green grass. Blooming landscaping. Blue skies. These details help buyers emotionally connect with a home, even if they’re shopping in January. A warm, well-lit exterior photo can make a massive difference in how a house is perceived and how quickly it sells.


3. You’ll Have a Competitive Edge

While other winter listings are limited to dreary curb shots, yours will stand out with vibrant, inviting imagery. A little prep now means your listing will look better and stand out more in the colder, slower season.


4. Weather is Unpredictable

Waiting until the last minute to grab exterior photos in November or December? You’re rolling the dice. Rain, snow, or freezing temps can delay shoots, or worse, force you to settle for subpar images.


5. Future-Proof Your Listing Package

Even if you’re not 100% ready to list yet, getting your exteriors done now gives you flexibility. When the time comes, you’ll have professional imagery prepared, regardless of the weather conditions.
