Default Help Please - What is a great camera and lens for real estate?

Hello everyone, this is my first post. I am looking for a nice camera and lens for real estate purposes. Many of the rooms and kitchens in my community are small. What camera and lens would make a room look twice as big in a picture versus in person? The link goes to my friends real estate site. He uses a photographer.

Since my community is small in size, I have used photographers, but none with the right equipment or any will to make an investment beyond what they already have.

What are my options for purchasing a nice camera and nice lens. I'm not looking for the perfect quality image as much as I am looking for a wall to wall AND ceiling to floor camera/lens. Distortion from a fish eye is fine and long as it's not...wow that looks unprofessional because its so fish eyed.

Please guide me in the right direction, and check out the link of a photo inside a home to give you an idea of what I am looking for. Thanks so much!

You want a normal perspective wide angle lens...
The sigma 10-20 on an entry level body will work.
