How to edit exterior real estate photos
Open Exterior Touch-up in Pixly's Photo AI, add the outside photo and click Exterior Touch-up. In one pass it does what a photographer would before the listing goes live: a natural sky where it's dull, a healthy lawn where the grass is dead, a clean driveway, and bins, hoses and clutter removed — each only where the photo needs it. The house stays as shot. 1 credit.

Under What to fix, all four are on: Sky, Lawn, Driveway & paths and Clutter. Each is fixed only where it needs it; switch one off to keep it exactly as shot.

Photos that work best
- The whole front of the property, with the drive and garden in view.
- Leave all four fixes on unless something should stay as it is.
- Daylight shots; for a dusk look, use Day to Dusk afterwards.
- Only the sky needs work? Sky Replacement gives you a choice of skies.
What to avoid
- Hiding real problems — damage, missing fences, a dug-up garden.
- Expecting the house itself to change: walls, roof and windows stay as shot.
- Very distant or blurry shots.
