I don't make that assumption unless it's a kitchen or bathroom. To me, pictures of people's beds, which is often most of what is shown for bedrooms, are just a waste of space.

A good room plan is more use than many photos, and for smallholdings, which were my interest, a map of the land. Mostly, I didn't get either.

Estate agents are often very lazy. With smallholdings they rarely walk more than 50metres to take a photo.

When I've had estate agents round for valuations only one went in the garden.
I certainly agree about the floor plans. The pushiest of the EA's said they no longer use them as it puts viewers off! When it comes to marketing my house I think I'll be reluctant to have too many photos taken, even though I find them helpful in deciding which houses I want to view-quite hypocritical I suppose but I like my privacy.

Agent: "I've had this great idea of how to sell an overpriced property in a tough market, boss.."

Boss: "What's that?"

Agent: "Well let's call our company Red Door Homes and we'll photoshop the front door red in all our listings..."

Boss: "Wow, what a GREAT idea!"

It's not just doors, either, if you look at their rental properties: http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-to-rent/property-26176782.html

Not the best promotional idea I've ever seen, I must say!

erm... . OK possibly a smallholding (pic 4)

EDIT to add:
They have now changed the listing from Farm House to Maisonette.
So the jokes gone

Spot the cat part... whatever we've got up to now:

(And a front door that's red without the aid of photoshop!)

And one where the photographer could have done with playing 'spot the light switch' - it's a lovely-looking place, but the photos are so dark.

More than likely, there's others, and another odd cabinet plus what likes some sort of vending machine in the bathroom!

They don't spend a lot of time in the garden do they?

New garden fences though!
