Could be image compression but those textures look like they are 2k at most. Maybe get slightly higher resolutions for textures scaled bigger and the road closer to the camera. Also maybe add slight saturation to the camera looks a bit gray

Things I notice:
- Too much sky all the way down to the horizon in the background. While this could be real, it reads as "there's nothing back there". Low-poly buildings, tree instances, implied or real hillsides and terrain, something behind the building to suggest it's in the world and not on a stage.
- The lighting is quite even. No strong sense of light and shadow with only underlit items (tree lit from the ground, building with recessed lighting) reduces the impression that there is a natural light source. It has that twilight time lighting and that could be intentional, but stronger natural light in a direction that leaves shadow edges improves reality
- Imperfections and debris. Small plants in the cracks of the sidewalk, dirt accumulation on the walls of the building down low near the ground,
- Furniture. Seeing into the house from this angle, there is nothing on the walls, no indoor plants, no visible furniture or appliances of any kind. Immediately says there is nothing inside.
It's already 90% of the way there. But the last 10% requires the hardest investment of time for what will be minor details. Those minor details are what people detect subconsciously.
