Hey all. Love reading this page and all the knowledge I get from it. I am a real estate photographer. I also shoot video. Recently, Ive had client after client ask me apprehensively, you dont use a drone, do you? When I ask them why they seem so uncomfortable, they tell me its because the National Association of Realtors has banned drone use in real estate marketing. So I had them forward me a few articles and read through them. Not only is the NAR basically echoing everything the FAA says, robotically, the are requesting that their members refuse to use any services provided by anyone who even owns a drone, regardless if they use it for their work for the specific agent. Here are links to a couple NAR related articles. Any help with drafting a standard response would be great. realtormag.realtor.org/daily-news/2014/11/19/commercial-drone-use-still-taboo realtormag.realtor.org/daily-news/2014/09/17/nar-takes-seat-in-faas-drone-talks realtormag.realtor.org/law-and-ethics/briefs/article/2014/03/drones-in-real-estate-not-so-fast washingtonpost/blogs/the-switch/wp/2014/12/10/the-faa-wont-make-up-its-mind-on-drone-rules-until-2017-at-the-earliest/
