Waah! Spellcheck!! Aerial.

I see it done a bit for luxury properties (especially if it can show proximity to water), acreage, development sites and some commercial stuff. Don't see it much for run of the mill residential properties though.

Were you referring to any in particular?

Now that they are using drones, one would think much cheaper, however in and around $500.

A lot of agents use it for "development blocks" etc. Hudson Bond is one that comes to mind.
