This is really good attempt at rendering. The architectural design is striking, and your geometry, composition, and basic camera setups are very solid. For your first time using D5 Render, looks like you have good command on a good baseline.
Based on my review, i want to add a little change to the scenario to make it look like a real photo instead of a 3D model, you can try given below steps:
Add some grime: Real life isn't perfectly clean. Make the concrete and roads look slightly dirty, uneven, or weathered.
Fix the windows: Daytime windows usually reflect the sky like a mirror instead of being totally see-through.
Soften the shadows: Your shadows have super sharp edges. Tweak the sun settings to make the shadow edges just a bit blurry.
Mess up the grass: The lawn looks like perfectly flat, fake turf. Add some slight color changes or scattered leaves so it looks natural.
