I have been using full motion video for my listings since 2007. At this point, I just don't see where drone footage helps much unless there is a bunch of land involved or a great location.

Video is always a good idea for Google juice. I deal with a lot of big dirt, and drone photography helps people see it without me worrying about them getting stuck in a low clearance vehicle, or encountering the desert critters.

Our market has been very brisk, so not as many times with a video, but definitely drone shots if there is a view.

Peter,

Drone shots are great for the right property, not all properties are right. Videos do not necessarily sell a home. Great pictures that can be viewed slowly in one's own time are better. A
