Whether you’re marketing a home, a block of land, rural acreage, a development site, a commercial property, or an off-the-plan project, aerial photography or video offers a powerful perspective for buyers and renters. In fact, it’s often the clincher.
By capturing your listing from 15 to 200 feet above ground, we can clearly showcase its proximity to key landmarks and destinations—schools, bus stops, train stations, shopping centres, café strips, beaches, parks, hospitals, and major commuter motorways. Don’t just tell prospective buyers it’s close—show them.
Aerial imagery also highlights the relative size and layout of the property compared to neighbouring homes and structures. You can easily convey important details, like the distance from adjacent buildings, the placement of a home on its block, or the location of dams on rural acreage.
At Virtuals1, we enhance aerial images with property outlines and directional arrows that clearly identify the exact unit or lot within the area—ensuring your listing is not just seen, but understood at a glance.
Virtuals 1 photographers are FAA Part 107-certified operator of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). In other words, we’re fully licensed drone pilots.
But certification is just the start. A happy-snap is just a happy-snap, no matter where it’s taken. Even with a bird’s-eye perspective and panoramic views, you still need the right equipment and skills to do your listing justice. Our aerial photos have the same depth, vibrancy and clarity as every other photo we take. is what really drives leads.
And you only have to look at the ads of the top real estate agents in your area to appreciate that the quality of their real estate photography is a clear differentiator. They know that premium real estate photography makes their listings – and their brand – stand out; that prospective buyers and tenants can’t help but notice bright, vibrant, razor-sharp photos; and that response rates are always better.
While the debate rages on regarding the use of drones — also known as unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) or unmanned aircraft vehicle (UAV) — for military and intelligence purposes, some far less controversial uses have emerged in the real estate industry. With the new regulations implemented August 29, 2016, it is easier than ever to use a drone to video-record or photograph your listings. The NAR even participated in the writing of the new rules in anticipation of the opportunities this presents in real estate marketing.
According to the NAR’s recent member survey, nearly 20 percent of realtors not already using drones say that they plan to in the future. One likely influence in this development is the fact that the profile of today’s realtor is trending younger, bringing more tech-savvy members to the industry.
While more than half of realtors (56%) say that they are not using drones currently, 18% say they plan to use them soon, which will swing the balance to put those using drones for photographing their listings into the new majority.
