Questions brokers and contractors ask

Do you need a license to fly a drone for real estate photography?

Yes. Any drone flight for a business purpose, including real estate listings, requires an FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate. Bluff City Aerial flights are flown by an FAA Part 107 certified drone pilot with more than 500 flight hours.

Can you fly over private property in the Memphis area?

We fly commercial jobs with the property owner's or listing broker's authorization, follow FAA Part 107 rules, and plan launch points from public right-of-way or with permission. Near Memphis International and other controlled airspace, we request FAA airspace authorization before the flight.

How much does commercial drone photography cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote the same day. Price depends on the property size, the number of edited photos, and whether you need parcel boundary overlays, 4K video, or a recurring construction progress schedule. Call or text 901-497-5656 with the address for a quote.

How fast will I get my photos?

Edited photos are typically delivered within 48 hours of the flight. Video delivery dates are confirmed when you book.

Are your drone flights insured?

Yes. Commercial flights are covered by $1 million in liability insurance. Certificates naming the broker, owner, or general contractor as additional insured are available at booking.

How accurate are the parcel boundary lines?

The outline is drawn from county parcel data or the survey or plat you provide, then aligned to the photo using the drone's GPS position and camera angle. It is a marketing graphic that shows the property's shape and location, not a legal survey.

What areas do you serve?

Memphis, Germantown, Collierville, Bartlett, Lakeland, Arlington, Cordova, Millington, Southaven, Olive Branch, West Memphis, and Fayette County. Travel beyond the metro area is available.
