Real estate photographer in Graz

A real estate photographer in Graz is a photographer who photographs apartments, houses, offices and holiday lets for sale or rental listings, with straight verticals, balanced window light and an honest sense of space. In Graz the building stock comes with a special frame: large parts of the city are protected under the Grazer Altstadterhaltungsgesetz 2008 (GAEG). Zone 1 is the core zone and UNESCO World Heritage area, Zone 3 covers the later 19th-century expansion of the city, and even the roofscape is protected by its own regulation. A recent draft by the province would exclude solar panels on protected roof surfaces in Zone 1, and in 2019 the province prepared to add the villa quarter on the western slope of the Ruckerlberg and the garden-city area around Rudolf-Hans-Bartsch-Straße in St. Peter to the protected area.

For a listing, that protection is part of the value: the façade, the roof landscape and the view over the red tiles are not going to change, so buyers want to see them. A typical shoot covers every room in daylight, details such as parquet, stucco or tiled stoves, the view from the best window, and the exterior – ideally at twilight, when warm interior light meets the blue sky. A flat takes two to three hours; you receive 20 to 30 edited images, sized for portals and print.
