Should You Offer Floor Plans As A Real Estate Photographer?

While photographs are an indispensable part of real estate listings, you might be contemplating whether to diversify your services. One question you might be considering is, “Should I offer floor plans in addition to my regular photography services?”

Offering floor plans can initially seem like a considerable investment of your time and resources. After all, you’ll need to learn new software and possibly invest in additional equipment depending on how excellent you want the floor plans to be.

However, once you get past the initial learning curve, offering floor plans could become a significant value addition to your business model.

It’s because floor plans can become such a great way to add value, both to your bottom line and your client, that I would say yes, you definitely should add floor plans to your list of offered services as a real estate photographer.

Why Floor Plans Are A Good Service To Offer

There are likely numerous photographers in your area offering services similar to yours. But how many of them also offer detailed floor plans? If your competition isn’t offering floor plans, then you’ll have a leg up on them. If they are, then you probably should be as well.

By adding this to your list of services, you can set yourself apart, making your business more attractive to realtors who are always looking for that extra edge in their listings.

In terms of profitability, adding floor plans to your services enables you to increase your average invoice total. It’s an additional service that complements your existing offerings, providing clients with a more comprehensive package.

You can also offer floor plans as an optional add-on, allowing you to cater to different client budgets. Given that floor plans can command a good price, typically anywhere from $100 to $400 depending on the property and market, this could significantly boost your revenue streams.

Floor plans can also look great in your portfolio. A diversified portfolio that shows you can handle both photography and floor plans makes you look more skilled and versatile to potential clients.

It’s proof that you understand different aspects of real estate marketing, making you a more appealing choice for realtors looking for a one-stop-shop solution.
