A vacant unit bleeds $83 a day

On a $2,500/month long-term rental — typical for the DC, Virginia, and Maryland market — every vacant day costs about $83 in lost rent. One empty week is $625; a full month between tenants, plus turnover costs, is well over $4,500 gone. Yet most rental listings still go live with dim phone photos — and sloppy photos read as sloppy management, so the well-qualified renters with options scroll past.

On Zillow and Apartments.com, renters compare dozens of listings in a session, spending seconds on each thumbnail — 70% of that browsing happens on a phone, where a muddy cover photo falls apart. Phone shots often miss platform standards outright: Apartments.com requires at least 2,048-pixel, landscape-orientation images just to display properly.

Virtually staged living room with fireplace and bay windows — virtual staging for a vacant rental unit

Photos that fill units faster

A 500-property study found listings with professional photography leased 11% faster and rented for 10% more — and professional photos generate up to 61% more listing views than amateur images. On a 30-day vacancy, 11% faster is roughly three fewer empty days: the shoot pays for itself before the first showing.

We capture what renters actually decide on — kitchen and appliances, closets shown open, in-unit laundry, bright bathrooms, and natural light in the living spaces. Turning over a vacant unit? Virtual staging from $24/photo (AI virtual staging from $15/photo) digitally furnishes your key rooms for a fraction of the cost of physical staging.

We've worked with many media vendors over the years, and UMEDIA continues to stand out as one of the best. They recently provided stunning photography, detailed floor plans, and a seamless 3D virtual tour for both a property sale and lease listing — and their results exceeded expectations. What really sets UMEDIA apart is their attention to detail and versatility. They also captured high-quality vertical photos perfect for social media. UMEDIA delivers every time.

Mario Gorjon a year ago

Our experience was fantastic. The photographer arrived on time and understood exactly what we wanted to achieve during the photo session. He showed professional attitude. The final edits were amazing and were available timely. The overall experience was outstanding. We were so pleased with the images, we are arranging photo sessions for other properties.

Dee Wald 8 months ago

First class. I did an update to a real estate listing using the services of UMedia, and immediately my reach on the internet real estate sites increased 3x each day. The quality and support is excellent, and will definitely be using them again soon.

Landlord & Property Manager FAQ

What rental owners and PMs ask us most.

What does rental listing photography cost?

The Rental Listing Package starts at $249 for units up to 2,000 sq ft and includes unlimited HDR photos plus a 2D floor plan — priced by property size, shown up front when you book. À-la-carte rental HDR photography (10–50 photos) starts at $119, and you can add a Matterport 3D tour from $199. See full rental pricing.

How fast will I get my rental photos?

Next business day, on every order — professionally edited and sized for Zillow, Apartments.com, and your own site. If the unit is ready and you need the listing live today, same-day delivery is available as a $49 add-on.

Do you provide verified photos for rental listing platforms?

Yes — our verified photos are accepted by major rental listing platforms, and every image is optimized for Zillow Rentals, Apartments.com, Rent.com, and the MLS: the platforms where tenants search most. Verified photos give your listing extra credibility with renters, which helps fill vacancies faster.

Can you photograph an occupied unit with a tenant in place?

Yes. We photograph occupied units regularly — our photographers compose each room around the tenant's furniture, and entire-property virtual cleanup (from $99) can digitally remove clutter in editing when a lived-in unit needs to look listing-ready.

Should I virtually stage a vacant rental?

If the unit is empty, yes — vacant rooms feel cold and renters struggle to judge scale or picture their furniture. Virtual staging ($24/photo) or AI virtual staging ($15/photo) digitally furnishes your key photos — living room, primary bedroom, dining area — for a fraction of the cost of physical staging.

I manage multiple units — can you handle my whole portfolio?

Yes — this is exactly what our online booking is built for. Book each turnover in about two minutes, no phone tag, and the same team shoots every unit with the same editing style, so every listing in your portfolio looks like it belongs to the same brand. Photos, floor plans, and 3D tours come from one vendor, delivered together the next business day.

What areas do you cover?

The entire DMV: Washington DC, Northern Virginia (Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax, McLean, Reston, Tysons, Falls Church, Herndon), and Maryland (Bethesda, Silver Spring, Rockville, Chevy Chase, Potomac, Gaithersburg, College Park).
