Drone film work gives the buyer a good sense of the surrounding area, especially in Colorado where there are gorgeous mountains, a variety of wildlife and active year-round lifestyles.

“People these days are ‘time poor,’ and they want to be able to experience the home and neighborhood in a relaxed setting before committing to a showing,” said Margaret. “Drone film work gives the buyer a good sense of the surrounding area, especially in Colorado where there are gorgeous mountains, a variety of wildlife and active year-round lifestyles.”
As a Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist (CLHMS), Margaret acquired the CLHMS designation easily. A candidate must prove the sales of at least four homes with selling prices at the top 10% of the marketplace (but never less than $500,000). “This designation is a requirement in my competitive market. Sellers in the luxury market want creative techniques that help buyers see the best features of a home quickly and easily,” said Margaret.
Margaret further states that her listings are unique, high-end homes that are posted nationally, so it is important to give the a buyer an emotional connection with a listing before they can physically visit. Drone technology was especially useful for one of Margaret’s most recent listings, 2300 Augusta Drive, a spectacular property that combines golf course living with Southern charm on desirable Hiwan Golf Course in Evergreen, Colorado.
Being able to use drones to film properties such as this has given real estate professionals who utilize this evolving technology a leg up on their competition, which was made even easier recently when the Federal Aviation Administration issued more than 1,300 Section 333 waivers for the commercial use of drones that weigh less than 55 pounds. A September 10, 2015, article on thehill.com states that a significant percentage of those waivers went to users in the real estate industry.
“This is huge for us real estate professionals,” said Margaret. “The demand for drones keeps growing as they are fast becoming an essential tool for this industry, and are the wave of the future.”
