Fines More Than The Comision You'd Likely Make On A Half A Million Dollar House
Don’t take the bait! As tempting as it can be to have your best friends kid with a drone shoot your houses for cheap, the risk is not worth it. Regardless of how much you would pay them. For just a little bit more you can have a certified drone pilot shoot for you. That would remove the risk of an $11,000 fine!
The FAA has confirmed in writing the penalties for un-licensed flight. For an unlicensed pilot, the fine is $1,100 per event/flight where the images are used. BUT more importantly, the fine for the real estate agent who hired unlicensed pilot is $11,000. Of course, if you’re an agent who bought the drone and took the photo or video yourself, you’ll be liable for both fines.
Not Every House Has Clearance For Drone Flight
Let’s also take a look at shooting houses that are just a few miles away from an airport. It is REQUIRED to get clearance to fly from the FAA before that drone is ever unpacked and sent up.

Drone Photography Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a drone video for real estate cost?
It all depends on what you are looking for. What we can say is the most common price for a drone video that you would use on social media typically will run around $100 on top of the cost of the photos.
If you are looking for something specific give us a ring or shoot us a message and we will get back to you with a refined quote of what your job will cost.
If I have a drone, can I shoot my own listings?
Sure, but you better have spent the time and money getting certified as a UAV pilot. Then check your METARs, TAFs, and make sure you have the right clearance to shoot the property based on its location.
Other wise let someone from our team take care of the leg work. Our drone photography add on is very affordable!
It's the day of or day before my scheduled shoot, how should I prep the property for the photos?
Great question! the biggest thing that helps out the drone pilot when shooting photos of the property is to make sure all of the vehicles are out of the way – ideally in the garage or parked in the street. Other wise do your typical maintenance, mow the lawn, take care of the landscapes and trim, and make sure all toys are out of the yard.

1000%! When your photographer/pilot shows up to the job, feel free to ask us for our drone license. We are certified and proud of it! But when you take a look at our license, just go easy on the comments about weight. Some of us got into cooking when COVID hit.
