Should realtors use drones to film your home and property to sell another home?   The Real You: Personality Poll

Neighbors of the for sale property being videoed have privacy concerns about their yards being viewed but hopefully realtors will avoid including people.

It is a long-standing tradition to include comps and neighborhood info in listings as part of the location, location, location sales pitch.

In Texas a real estate company must have signed permission to before placing a sign in a person's yard but I am not aware of limits on drone videos.

That’s very nice and you proved my point. The properties are very isolated with a lot of space around the homes except in one case where I noticed other houses. The same kind of shot in a suburban area would show the yards of dozens of homes.  It’s almost worse in a more isolated area where surrounding neighbors may have good reasons to want privacy.  It seems very invasive to me.

Imagine. Drones used in real estate have opened up a whole new business.
When the house next to me had a company walk thru a few years ago I noticed them using tablets to take pictures. I thought those were modern.

Tablets are more modern than cameras.

Yes, they are. I do not remember where my camera is.

I only had one because a friend had one and I saw a really good clearance on one. Little did I know it would not hold many pictures. It was a good and cheap way to learn.
I used it last when a crazy neighbor was hauling off my tree he cut down, pretending to be a beaver. I set a trap, he sprung it and I opened the door and flashed away. Could see him quite well but camera was not strong enough to.show him at midnight. However, he didn't know that and stopped cutting my trees down. He did try a br window but it was locked. cops still wouldn't come.

He had to. Stage 4 lung cancer did him in.
Ironically, his host was his childhood friend. He didn't believe me about his friend and cut off communication. He also died of the same thing.
