Yup. I did my own real estate photography for the sale of the last 3 houses. I also used to do a little architectural photography when I was pretending I was a professional photographer... little tricks like firing a flash outside a window to make a cloudy day look sunny. :-)

We had some friends from upstate New York (the frozen north)
visiting us for several days.  After a few days of pleasant South
Carolina weather they began getting interested in actually buying a
place here but not until it was almost time to leave.  They looked
at 4 houses in the neighborhood that were for sale and absolutely
fell in love with this one.  It's not actually on the market yet
but I heard from the owner that she plans to sell soon.  Yesterday
I took some photos of the house so my friends could remember the
details of what they saw and also show their children and
grandchildren what they're thinking of buying.

The photos I took are in the link below.  Everything was done with
the E-M1 and the 9-18.  If there are any not taken at 9mm they are
very few.  I don't yet know how to use the HDR feature on the E-M1
and HDR in PhotoShop is still a mystery to me.  It managed to
"destroy" the 2 images I tried.  So I was amazed that, in many
instances, I was able to capture the outdoors through the windows
in full sun and only slightly overexposed while having enough
shadow lifting capability to correct extreme underexposure of the
interior.

I also did it while working very quickly on a very light tripod so
as not to inconvenience the owner.  I'm sure I could have done much
better with much more time and the big Manfrotto with geared head.
One of these days I'm just going to have to tackle the HDR thing as
well as getting better at correcting distortion.
