Drone photo illustrating: Drone Photography + Virtual Tour Packages — What to Ask For

Drone Photography + Virtual Tour Packages — What to Ask For

How aerial imagery and 3D tours work together for listings, and the questions to ask before booking a bundle.

Why bundle

Buyers increasingly expect a virtual tour alongside photos. Combining exterior aerials with an interior 3D tour in one visit saves scheduling and often reduces the total cost.

Platforms

Common tour platforms include Matterport, iGUIDE, Zillow 3D Home, Kuula and CloudPano. Ask which platform the provider uses, who hosts the tour and for how long, and whether hosting fees are included.

Linking aerial and interior views

Some providers add aerial panorama points to the tour so viewers can move from the interior to an overhead view of the lot and neighbourhood.

Questions before booking

Turnaround for photos and the tour, floor plans and measurements, branded vs unbranded links for MLS use, and what happens if the listing is re-shot.
