Drones coming to a neighborhood near you...very soon.

So the FAA has just given approval to the very first Real Estate agent to use a drone to take pictures of neighborhoods.  Yes, drones will now be taking pictures of neighborhoods on behalf of Real Estate agents.  While this sounds very interesting, I highly doubt this will lead to a mass proliferation of drones across the country controlled by RE agents.  For one, they may very well be cost prohibitive and the fact that a business case still needs to be built as to how using a drone will add value to the customer in the sale of their home.  Perhaps, an agent could position himself as an innovator but I still need to see hard proof that its anything other than a gimmick.

Cheers,

O.
