Understanding MLS photo standards
Clear dimensions and visible disclosures protect agents, photographers, and buyers from misrepresentation under NAR Article 12.
Standard 2048 × 1536 Dimensions
Most MLS platforms require or recommend 2048 × 1536 resolution. Standardizing your files prevents automated compression artifacts on downstream portals like Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com.
NAR Article 12 Disclosure
Under the NAR Code of Ethics, property presentations must convey a true picture. Virtual staging requires a permanent, legible "Virtually Staged" watermark to protect agents from misrepresentation disputes.
Dual-Photo Upload Protocols
Several regional boards, such as ACTRIS in Austin, require agents to upload the unstaged original photo alongside the staged image. Keeping both files organized ensures smooth review.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about photo dimensions, compliance rules, and browser security.
What is MLS compliance for virtual staging?
Most MLS systems require virtually staged photos to include a clear "Virtually Staged" disclosure watermark. This maintains transparency for buyers and protects listing agents under NAR Code of Ethics Article 12.
What dimensions does this tool produce?
Images are standardized to 2048 × 1536 pixels (4:3 aspect ratio), the recommended resolution across major MLS platforms. If your photo uses a different aspect ratio, subtle letterboxing is applied to prevent distortion.
Is this tool free to use?
Yes. Processing runs entirely in your local browser with no account, no subscriptions, and no file limits.
Are photos uploaded to your servers?
No. All resizing and watermarking occurs inside your browser using client-side canvas APIs. Your files never leave your computer.
Can I use this for photos that do not need a watermark?
Yes. Simply uncheck the watermark option to resize standard property photos to 2048 × 1536 pixels without adding any disclosure label.
What file formats are supported?
You can load JPEG, PNG, or WebP files up to 15 MB. The export is always an optimized JPEG formatted for immediate MLS upload.
