In short

Object removal means deleting temporary things such as trash bins, parked cars, or clutter from a real estate photo and filling the space with matching background. Immopix detects such objects automatically and replaces them with lawn, paving, or facade, depending on the surroundings. Permanent parts of the property such as fences or garden sheds stay untouched. It takes about a minute per image and costs from €0.60 per image, with no subscription. In our 2026 study, removing clutter and distractions was the second most common fix, at 27 percent of all photo corrections.

Typical use cases

Most often it is trash bins that happened to stand in front of the house on shoot day, or cars parked in the driveway or at the curb. Sometimes building material is lying around because of renovations, or garden furniture sits awkwardly in the frame. All of that can be removed without tidying up on site or scheduling a new appointment.

The demand is not niche. In our 2026 study of over 4,000 real listing photos, removing clutter and distractions accounted for 27 percent of all photo corrections, the second most common fix after exposure. Among agents' free-text instructions, it was mentioned in 38 percent of cases.

How the AI decides what stays

Immopix distinguishes between temporary and permanent objects. Trash bins, cars, and clutter are recognized as temporary and removed. Fences, pools, garden sheds, and other fixed structures stay, because they belong to the property. This distinction matters legally as well as visually: enhancing a photo is fine, hiding permanent defects is misleading advertising in most jurisdictions. In borderline cases you can add your own instructions to steer the result.

Compared with Photoshop

In Photoshop you would select the object manually, remove it with the clone stamp or content-aware fill, and then clean up the transitions. Depending on complexity, that takes 10 to 30 minutes per object and requires practice. With 20 photos per property, that quickly adds up to hours. Immopix does the same job automatically, which makes the biggest difference when you process many images.

Frequently asked questions

Which objects can Immopix remove?
Temporary things such as trash bins, parked cars, building material, garden furniture, or toys lying around. Permanent parts of the property such as fences, pools, or garden sheds stay untouched, because they belong to the property.
Does the edited area look natural?
Yes. The freed-up area is filled with matching background, usually lawn, paving, or facade. With simple backgrounds the result is seamless; very complex patterns sometimes need a second attempt.
What does object removal cost?
From €0.60 per image in the largest pack, with no subscription. Outsourced editing services charge €5 to €10 per image for item removal and take about 24 hours. Your first 3 images are free.
Can I control what gets removed?
Yes. By default Immopix removes detected temporary objects automatically. In borderline cases you add your own instructions, for example to keep a specific object or to remove one deliberately.
Is removing objects allowed?
Yes, as long as the property is not misrepresented. A removed trash bin does not change the property. Permanent defects must not be covered up. From August 2, 2026, the EU AI Act requires AI-edited images to be disclosed.
