Hello my RE professional. If you did the math. 1) What percent of your commissions have you been spending on the virtual experience of the homes you are selling (video, photo, drone, 360/virtual tour)

About .75% to 1% of property for all in marketing expenses and 4-6% commissions depending on home price. Used to be a realtor before going full time in CRE and still kinda do it on the side

like

And 2) what's your commission %. So your answer might look like: 5% expense of 6% comission (so an effective .3% of prop value)

I know that's prob not how you assess the price but, as a videographer trying to get into the RE biz, I'm trying to figure out how to make this virtual experience more affordable for RE agents selling smaller homes since the current market conditions and social distancing norms might seem it necessary.

Definitely more of a CRE thread here but glad OP had his insight to share.
