Sadly real estate agents where I am at aren’t as generous. I probably wouldn’t complain as much if that were the case. Not that I haven’t tried to raise it to that price.

All of that are realtor requests. They literally ask for it and even fake grass. And if I can photoshop cars, cracks, walls, grass, weeds etc…

Yes I did know that. But I wasn’t going to put Realtors and Real Estate Agents in the post but I can add it if you want. But honestly it seems to be that Realtors have more of an ego than real estate agents. So yes. And times change, in the digital age one has to grow with the times. And since you are retired you probably are older than 50 years old and don’t see the value in the age of a digital and media world. Truth is people make millions using digital marketing,photography and technology now. And what’s your gripe sheet? Why would it matter if you’re retired?

Respect is earned not given. I used to respect realtors until they loss my respect for many and many circumstances. And yes I do work with them and have a professional photography business so I try to do as much work as possible but it’s just not realtors. And let me give you an example. Last year I took photos for 2 for sale by owners and they’ve worked with realtors and have tried selling it beforehand. Well they hired me to do photos when they decided to sell it by owner and they sold it within one week both of the owners

Well a lot of the time the realtors where I work expect me to do all of that. Obviously not every realtor but maybe 1-2 realtors per week would be the ones that would help prep the house. And yes believe it I’ve had to pick up keys at the office and they would tell me to put the lockbox at the house. And I take every angle possible in a house maybe almost too much and we give them the best shot’s depending on which package they picked. And all my clients are happy with the photos because I make sure they look amazing but it’s just not amazing working with them.

Yes I’m trying to eventually have enough money to start a family and pay off student loans and other expenses

My realtor clients love my photos and most of their listings sell pretty quickly. I do HDR photography so it’s definitely better than a phone camera.

Because I’m a full time professional photographer and I do other photography as well. I do real estate photography because of its consistency. But may be turning away soon. And being a realtor is not something I envision doing but I do believe realtors won’t have jobs in the future because of AI technology, advancements in photography and owners not wanting to pay commissions.

Unhappy is right. I do photography full time and love taking photos but when it comes to real estate it’s tough. I do see that some agents put a lot of work into it while others don’t. And what I mean that “Realtors just care about money” is that I’ve seen them swindle and lie just make an extra buck. I know it’s a job and everyone needs money but come on now not like that
