What I Charge For Real Estate Work | Drone & Video Tips

[@spencer1803]

We quote off of time and resources required, about $125 an hour for shooting and editing. We pay our creatives (videographers and editors) $75-100 an hour for shooting and editing. If you're charging less than $200 a shoot, you would have to do 2 shoots every single weekday just to earn $6,000 per month revenue. Our real estate listing photos start at $300, videos start at $500. Here in Tampa, FL. Did 30 images and a walkthrough video for a modern home in South Tampa for $750 a few weeks ago.

[@OriginaldoBo]

You won’t get that in Hernando you can try but you won’t good luck

[@OriginaldoBo]

I also work smarter not harder and make plenty

[@spencer1803]

@@OriginaldoBo you say you work smarter not harder yet you are telling everyone to do 2 shoots every day for $200 each. It takes you 3-4 shoots to even earn the same amount as 1 of our shoots so I don't see how you think you're working "smarter not harder" looks like you earn about $6k-8k a month max by the numbers you gave us. Maybe save up some of that money you've been making plenty of and move out of Hernando county. (even though there's plenty of work available in Hernando for $1k+ per shoot, there are $1 mil+ homes, you just have to position yourself in their market instead of these $200k 1500sqft homes where agents can't afford to pay more.)

[@spencer1803]

@@OriginaldoBo We did 2 videos in Hernando for $800 for a new agent at the height of lockdown/pandemic scare. 1800 sqft walkthrough and an introduction video.. Instead of saying "you won't get that" you should be asking yourself how

[@Quadcopterguide]

Thanks for sharing. I have heard that realtors are on the cheap side with their budgets, but man, you must have your editing and shooting down to be super quick. At those prices it seems like it's tough to put money aside for insurance, vehicle, travel, gas, and the biggest...gear.. Hope the FL market goes up for ya man!

[@Camrographer]

I've been doing real estate photography for over a decade now. I've raised my prices a few times over this course of time. Initially I apprenticed with another photographer and I was aware that I was not capable of creating a very polished product and thus I billed accordingly. Furthermore I did not have a background in business so I had to carefully and slowly make changes without turning away what clients I did have. Gradually the quality of my work got better through on the job trial/error and experimentation and I increased my rates accordingly. Factoring cost of living and other impacts this type of work has on one's life is critical. As a self employed person I don't take days off if unless it's something important. The time spend behind the computer editing photos has taken its toll as well. These are the prices we pay which we don't see until we spent a few years doing a type of work. This type of work is as technical and creative as the person wishes it to be. One can treat it like a burger flipping job or as a prestige white collar career. It depends on the individual, how disciplined and driven they are to elevate the craft.

[@jimfray3742]

exactly but treating it like burger flipping is bizarre, all that training and expertise goes to waist with these settle for crumbs prices

[@Camrographer]

@@jimfray3742 If large companies didn't outsource their processing for pennies the profession of real estate photography would be much more developed and command greater prices which would in turn elevate the craft. keep in mind I fell into this field via my passion for photography. It's slowed down a bit but there is a trend of racing towards the bottom even today. Undercutting other photographers because as you say they are chasing "crumbs" Often it's the ones which already have a primary source of income and aren't sensitive to the impact it has on the field as a whole. This is especially problematic because photography is not regulated like other professions are thus skill level and competence are ambiguous and arbitrary. consequently, the photographer needs to build a portfolio to prove that competence. Formal education is not a solution. as we know there are numerous educated professionals which are burdened by loan debt. The tried and true method of entering into a skilled work space is through mentorship because one's mentor will teach one the entire scope of the profession not simply its technical. Unfortunately schools do not equip people with the necessary knowledge to enter work force.

[@matts1521]

Good info bud, I actually work real estate and photography on my own, as for the real-estate photography my base here in nc starts at $150 for photos up to 2000 sf and I do 10 cents per sf above that. I like it because it gives me more flex to bring it down or help them out if the price gets out of control and has worked very well. Good agents won't mind a price that matches the work. Listing agents here make 3% of the purchase price of the home. Plus it looks good to their client that the agent is making sure to cover details like photos using a pro. And yes..... I charge myself for the photos I do on my own properties...... real estate tax write off 🤣

[@RapidoRafi-MTB]

Looking at this comment. I live in NC as well and looking to get into the drone business. Do you have a drone social media page?

[@ColinMcEvoy]

Im in the Seattle area, we are able to charge quite a bit more. I have my pricing set per sq ft but in package and al a cart form to get agents a good amount of options for what they want to do with the listing. I just did a 1800Sq ft home yesterday photo, video and drone photo video for $635. I have someone else do all the editing and saves me time so I can shoot more. I did an $8million listing a few weeks ago but charged $2,250 because it was alot of work. I dont like working for cheap, I know there's alot of photographers around here that charge less then I do but Im shooting anywhere from 8-20 listings a week.

[@antholic3786]

how do you approach reators/people selling homes ? Do you cod call them or like what

[@adrianvanleeuwen]

Thanks for this explanation to charge for photo and video. It is so ironic that agents that sell homes make 2.5 percent commission on million dollar homes which is $25K, yet might be "nickel and diming" at low rates when hiring photographers. In Canada in the cities small homes start at $1 Million Canadian dollars, or higher for under 2000 sq. ft. However, the longer established agents will pay more for high quality photo and video and those are the ones photographers want to work with. Based on travel and expenses, we should not charge too low.

[@airwebdigital]

Great tip on not nickel and diming clients and creating a tier system. It sounds like a better method than sq ft where if the house is a 100 ft or so over a package then it kind of debunks the system. This is clear cut and providing examples is a sure way to get more business, thanks for the gems!

[@JGrimaldi7723]

Great video. Excellent advice mentioning that we as the photographers can also fire agents. It's a super important perspective, because difficult agents don't suddenly change and become amicable. The more time you waste with the unappreciative, the less time you have to forge new, more agreeable agents. There has to be mutual respect. Having that conversation and setting proper expectations up front makes for a much smoother transaction and can lead to more work.

[@frankvet1]

My buddy charging 1 basis point of the purchase price, UPTO 30 images and UPTO 6 mins of video. Additional shots or video footage are by estimate of time at $100/hour (1 hour minimum). Love this because anyone who wants to hire you knows your fees without even calling you, so when they DO call you, they are Pre-Sold, little haggling and it also gives realtors some idea of their selling budget without the guess work or calling around to get prices! Shots are digital, video is digital or DVD. Example: a house priced/listed at $350,000 would be charged $350. Easy peasy. Just wanted to share. Thank you.

Thanks, Brian

[@ialokinstein]

I'm in central Wisconsin, and pricing is the same as what you're doing! Right now its a fast market and agents can get away with quick click pics on cell phone and the house sells in hours... so they don't want to invest. I think that investment will change when housing sales slow down and they go back to fight to get a listing sold.....then they'll add u our services to bring value for their commission 😉👍🏻

[@marcadams9318]

Very nice. I do real estate with just one client by request. We include videos from drone, indoor/outdoor video as well as photos in/out. Like you, simple pricing. 1/500 of a % of the listing price. It doesn't matter if it's a mobile home or a million dollar listing. We treat each home the same. We're just starting out but so far so good.

[@OranJuno]

1/500 of 1% of $1,000,000 is $20

[@ekalb7789]

I'm surprised the quality you provide for the money. Well done. I find my agents always say they want everything I offer, but not only do they not like the price, I start to feel like I am nickel and diming. I have started trying to cater "packages" to different agents based on their "wants and needs" it's a fine line between making money and charging too much. It's a competitive market.

I hope you have raised your prices since this video. I’m in Alabama. And my prices are more. I do 2-6 houses a day. No push back from realtors about my prices.

The same number of houses come on the mkt they just sell so fast. My realtors are top producers and the photography is part of their branding.

[@miketipton678]

FL is different because houses can turn over fast here. You can do a shoot, show up, and the house is already under contract, or at least a few offers in. Houses up north don't move as fast because... well... more people from tax to feck areas want to sell that $600K bungalow up north, and move to FL so they can buy a better home, bigger home, in a warmer climate for almost half of the cost of a house in NY etc. Rare to fine native Floridians in the major burbs of any county

[@Jimmy_Cavallo]

💥✨💥 Thank you so much for this info and it’s greatly appreciated. I had the feeling and now I’m convinced. Real estate photography pays pennies for all of the time spent. I’ll stick to an 8 hour wedding for $2800. $145 for a basic home..? The drive back and forth, the shoot, editing time and package delivery... no way Jose. 🤟🏼 And did you say INCLUDING drone footage.?? HAA

[@grantdecker1190]

Totally agree though after CODB and Billable units and wanting to make 60K/year salary I set around $3400 for a full 8 hour day with just one photographer. Anything else will be extra. (8 Hour shoot time, 1.5 Hour travel time, 16 Hour Culling/Editing, 3 hour client meetings, 3 hour admin time) and all of those are on the low end. So to make 60K/year at 3,400 per wedding, I would need to do roughly 30 weddings in a calendar year time frame (CODB 105,000 / $3400) So for me to make 60K/year pre-tax my business revenue needs to make 105,000. Hopefully that makes sense. Best of luck with your weddings!

Great info and well presented, if the listener actually hears what you said. Yes, you gave us the basic pricing information your charge, but more importantly you gave the reasons and how you worked to determine the prices you charge for your area. You also mentioned that video is still in its infancy for real estate. Everyone does stills, even bad stills, it it is expected, and for now that is where you need to be priced right to make a living. On the other hand video is starting to be seen as a great selling tool, but seems to have not yet been accepted as a necessity like stills. I think you are on the right track to continue to build your video side. The snippets I have seen are awesome, and make me wish I had the money to buy those houses. Very nice work. I also like that fact that you put it out there that you need to try and shoot as close to final as possible to keep the costs down, but for an up charge enhancements are available. Good product for a good price, but if you want extra eye catchers, or enhancements, they take more time so there is an additional cost. But the bottom line is if you deliver a quality product, at an expected price, you can grow a good business. Thanks.

Pricing seems reasonable and IMO as long as you're averaging $30+ per hour of work you put into the job I feel that you and the client are getting your money's worth. I did web design in the late 90s for 10 years and made a killing because so few designers were out there. When Word Press gained popularity around 2005 along with websites that offered "build your own sites" I knew it was time to get out as few people were going to pay 1k+ for a bespoke website anymore. With photography and videography there isn't as much competition so it's more of a lucrative job and I wish you continued success.

It was my first house and of course it was for a friend from church and it was just going to be a favor for them. I even went in with a nice attitude that I’m doing this for free. Took me about an hour and They ended up giving me a $100 gift card for Red Lobster! Went home and told my wife get ready for date night dinner! 👍

Very helpful, especially the idea of 3 tier pricing!

Great overview, thanks!

I feel like sq footage would be a weird way to price for drone work? unless you're doing a fly/walk through. but not for outside shots? I never thought about that

[@treysals]

Great advice. What type of camera are you using for your interior video? I was looking at a pocket two to shoot interior video. Any thoughts? Thanks

[@OriginaldoBo]

They are ok but not what I would purchase. You’ll want something with a interchangeable lens

"sit back, stfu" 🤣 I clicked like immediately after hearing that part. Great vid

[@domnicjohnson]

Do you just involve in styling the place or the relator is responsible for it? Do you just use your drone to shot the video by yourself? Thanks

Hi Ken, when you say you charge $175 for a basic most video. How long do you spend at that house shooting ? Half a day ? And how much time for post production ?.....Thanks.

"You can also fire agents" that's gold right there!

[@OriginaldoBo]

I do what I can 😬

I very much enjoyed this video. The composition of story telling, filmography, and great tips on how to approach a project bid. I'm sure your pries are higher now in 22. With Drone Deploy doing most of the work I feel bad charging clients the prices I do...lol...no I don't. Love all your videos...Thanks.

I charge by bedrooms and bathrooms and by the amount of photos and by simple or advanced editing. So I start at 100 for 10 photos of a 2bed 1bath unit. I increase with yard or evening shots. Then I charge for extras such as floor plans. Your prices seem cheap lucky realtors

Thanks! Great video!

[@tt2sj]

Great video. Very direct and professional. I really like your work, still trying to figure out how you filmed in front of a mirror and I didn’t see your reflection....nice!

[@CheWilson]

Thanks you for always being honest and keeping it real. Appreciate you...
