Where can I see enhanced photos?

How does it fit into the rest of the leasing process?
Photos come after we set the rent and before the home goes on the market. We first walk the home, recommend any make-ready work and set a market rent. Then we shoot and enhance the photos, and advertise. Our rent ready guide explains how to get a home ready to rent.
