In this day of technology we are finding that more and more people are looking at houses. And never leaving their house(apartment)!
Today's buyers want a link... a website... a URL... They want to "sneak" into your home without you knowing it. They want to take a look without inconveniencing you. So your Realtor hired a really good photographer/videographer to post your home to that wonderful resource, the internet.
Don't get me wrong here, because I absolutely LOVE the internet. But I have seen on more than one occasion a young couple walk into a house that they had seen pics on line and turn to me and say, "Wow! It looked a lot better than this on line!" But I have also heard this: "Wow. I wasn't sure I wanted to see this house based on the pictures, but you know what? I'm glad we came..."
You see my point right?
I think the best way for you to make a decision on a house is to GO LOOK AT IT. And don't eliminate it solely on the pics or video you saw on line. You might be pleasantly surprised.
Think about this. It's a big buy. You're not buying a stereo system or even a car. It's going to be your home! Your castle! You are going to be there every day for quite a while.
Take the time to go look. You don't have to stay a long time, but you might!

This happened to me a few times while searching for apartments! Pictures I saw online made the places look great, but then when I went to see it- it was a DUMP! I completely agree: check out pictures online but don't judge it based on what you see there. You have to see it in person. Who knows, someone might have just photoshop-ed that picture to make it look brilliant :) You just have to go see for yourself.
