How Will Drones Influence Real Estate?

By
Title Insurance with Title Junction, LLC

There has been an incredible amount of buzz in relation to the new innovative drones. These futuristic looking machines zoom throughout airspace delivering video and/or photographic content to the owner. Though many laws and regulations have banned these flights, there have been many exceptions. Of course whenever a new piece of technology is on the rise your Fort Myers Title Company can’t help but wonder, “How will this influence the real estate industry?” 

Well, photography plays a very important role in real estate advertising. Capturing just the right angle on a home may just give yourself a few prospective buyers. The new drone allows these images to reach a whole new level…literally! Now, buyers may view property from a helicopter like view, enabling them to view the entire property at once rather than piece by piece. 

However, is this a good thing? Unless your home holds some spectacular views or has major acreage, it may not play in your favor. For example, you may have a luxurious apartment in the city that views beautiful infrastructure at eye level, but do you really think the drone is going to do any justice to that property? Probably not. 

All in all, we can expect to see more drone imaging throughout listings in 2016. It’s a new photographic advancement but, like all real estate techniques, it’s all about strategy in visual distribution!

I think drones are just another great tool, but not the be all answer to sales.  It has to make sense to use it and if the house doesn't warrant it, maybe shoot the nearby golf course or park, etc.
