Isn't the realtor able to replace these? And one one home search site there are 4 old photos and another has only 8 but our realtor's specific website has all 16 of the new photos! We are quite frustrated now!

If anyone has a good answer please let us know as we have a contract until August with her and she doesn't seem to be doing much for us!

Thank you in advance!

Are the new pictures coming up on the MLS and realtor.com? It should be as those are the major ones realtors and buyer's look at. If it's 3rd party sites I wouldn't worry too much as often times they are not updated as frequently as they should.

Zillow, Trulia, etc feed off the MLS for most things with a service like ListingHub. Not all of the sites update photos. Trulia has some update glitches as price changes and photos of mine haven't made it over there. They also store photos, so you have to go in and manually delete old photos.

It's a listing feed problem.
