I keep saying I'm not doing any more real estate stoots, then one of the realtors I know calls and ask for some photos or videos.
The realtor I did a shoot for yesterday didn't quibble about the price until I finished. Her comment was it only took you a few minutes to shoot that video, why so expensive? It took m 35 minutes to get to the home, less than twenty minutes to do the aerial, and forty minutes to do the photos.
20 minutes listening to her babble, and a thirty minute drive home.
One and half hours of editing and HDR work.
My fee was $350.00 and the results were very good in my un-humble opinion.
The home is on the market for 925k, I asked her what her commission was? Sure I knew, but I was trying to stress a point.
Total commission is $55,000, now since she is the broker if she sells the home she gets the entire amount, otherwise she splits it with the selling real estate agency. If another of her agents sells the home they get about 8k, so the minimum she will make is 19,000 plus, and she was complaining about 350.00
Love photography and doing the videos, but I'm sick of cheap realtors wanting something for nothing. If they have a low end property they don't even ask for high end photography or aerial and I understand that. Low end in our area is 300lk so even at that they could easily afford quality photography but most won't.
