Everything You Need To Know About Our Real Estate Services
Real Estate is an industry that has grown much throughout the years, and one key aspect of this is the advancements in photography and media. At Janelle Rios Photography & Media we offer a wide range of services to help benefit the buying and selling of homes. Read on to see what we offer and how it can benefit your home sale!
Recently we shared our journey on how we came to real estate photography and media. Real Estate is an industry that will never go away, and for us to be a part of the buying and selling homes is fun, memorable, and exciting.
From professional photos of a home to accurate layouts and 3D walk-throughs, we can do it all.
Including an array of these services in your home sale can help sell the home faster, and get you or your clients into their next home quicker! Below we will explain these services and what they can mean for a home's sale.
Photographs
When it comes to photos of a home and all its indoor and outdoor spaces, you want to capture it in its best light. This is why hiring a professional photographer is highly recommended. We have the proper gear and the knowledge to insure we show off the home.
We are also mindful in highlighting some of the best features of a home that we are photographing and will take several angles to produce the best photo collection for the realtor and seller.
At the end of the same day, we will go through the photos and carefully select those with the best angles and lighting. It’s important to tell a story through the photos, so buyers can get a feel for the home online and entice them to come see it in person.
The photo collection then gets sent off to the editor. Photos are then sent back to us in roughly 12 hours, which means we can get photos back to the realtor by end of day, the next day. This is a huge benefit that we offer for your real estate media needs!
If you’re wondering how many photographs I include, our pricing is organized in bundles discussed below. So, keep reading to know what more services we include and the bundles.
Videos
It’s no secret that a home sale starts with its online presence. 97% of home buyers go to the internet to search for their next home, and over 50% of real estate agents use social media to share homes on the market.
Because most people have smartphones these days, it’s critical to include a vertical video of the home for sale online and on social media. It not only looks professional, but it is easier for home buyers to view on their smartphones!
We offer three types of vertical videos: cinematic, walk-through, and stacked.
With vertical videos in any of these formats you can post on your Instagram feed and stories, TikTok, and Facebook. It’s a quick and easy way to get buyers interested in a home!
If you are a realtor and are not using social media yet or need more content, contact us so we can talk about how we can help.
Layouts
Photographs and videos are great for giving buyers an idea of what the home looks like inside and outside, but a schematic floor plan is a great way to give the buyer an idea of what the home’s layout is.
When photographing a home, we always start with measurements and a schematic floor plan for our client. It’s not only a great way for us to get familiar with the home, but it also allows us to complete the layout promptly.
Please note our final schematic floor plan measurements are approximate, and not exact - although we try our best to be as accurate as possible!
Schematic floor plans with measurements are included in our bundles, so keep reading to learn more about those.
Drone
Drones are a newer technology that has elevated the real estate market's online presence. Drone videos are not only great for showing the exterior of the home with a bird’s eye view, but they can also show the surrounding area.
Whether the home is located on several acres, or in a cozy neighborhood, we can capture the home from above to show off its environmental qualities.
It is very important to note that our photographers are FAA Part 107 Certified. What does this mean? It means that your drone videos will be professional, quality, and legal!
We have taken courses on flying drones, how to capture a home with this technology, and also learning about and understanding the laws and regulations around drone flying.
3D Tours
One of the most amazing new technologies used in real estate photography is the use of 3D tours in a home. These incredible 3D tours allow the buyer to tap through several points in the home, to virtually explore it even more.
There is no doubt that including a 3D tour in a home’s listing can increase the buyer’s interest.
We can provide you with two types: Matterport (high-end) or Zillow (budget friendly). These are both add-on’s, and Matterport is included in the Premium bundle.
If you are a realtor and want to know more about 3D tours, contact us today!
Bundles and Add-On’s
We understand that every listing and every realtor has their own needs and wants from a real estate photographer. This is why we offer a variety of bundles and add-on’s, so realtors can pick and choose what they need based on their budget.
The three bundles we offer are based on typical realtor’s needs, so we’ve made a clear and concise package descriptions with pricing on our website.
From the basic bundle to the premium bundle, our competitive pricing ranges from $225-750 depending on your needs.
Another key aspect to our pricing: the add-on’s. If you want, for example, the basic bundle AND drone photos, you can choose the basic bundle and drone photos as an add-on. We want to remain as flexible as possible, and are always available to discuss your needs.
The Add-on’s we offer include:
Drone photos
Virtual Twilight Photos
Standard Twilight Photos
Virtual Staging
Matterport 3D Tour
Zillow 3D Tour
Oh, and we can’t forget to mention we have an order form online for realtors! We know how busy a realtor’s life can be, so to make the ordering process easy, we have a link on the website for an order form. It takes only a few minutes to fill out, and you can tell us exactly what your needs are.
