FAQs

Straight answers about pricing, process, and what makes us different from your last vendor.

What types of properties do you cover?

We handle apartments, build-to-rent, single-family communities, commercial, industrial, resorts, and mixed-use sites. Interior, exterior, drone, twilight, lifestyle, and full media packages are all available.

How much does it cost?

Pricing depends on the type of asset, the size of the property, the media package, and how much coverage you need. A basic photo set for a smaller property may land in the $600–$1,200 range, while full media packages with video, drone, twilight, and lifestyle coverage for larger communities can range from $2,500–$8,000+.

For larger portfolios, industrial sites, or full marketing campaigns, budgets can range from $10,000–$40,000 depending on the number of shoot days and deliverables. We always send clear quotes once we understand the scope.

How far in advance should I book?

Most clients book 5 to 10 days out. Busy seasons fill up faster. If you need a quick turnaround, just ask. We can usually fit it in.

How fast do you deliver photos and videos?

Standard delivery is 3 to 5 business days for photos, and 7 to 10 business days for videos. However, rush options are available and we're extremely flexible to align with your timeline

How long does production take?

Most real estate photo sets are delivered within 3 to 5 business days. Standard video projects take 7 to 10 business days once filming is complete. Larger shoots with drone work, lifestyle content, multiple units, or heavy edits may run 2 to 3 weeks.

If you have a firm deadline, we can adjust the schedule and move the project up in the queue.

What does the process of working together look like?

Our process includes: (1) Strategic consultation to understand your goals and audience, (2) Detailed pre-production with shot lists, schedules, and asset prep, (3) Professional production with experienced crews to capture asset without disrupting tenants/resident, (4) Expert post-production with advanced storytelling & editing, (5) Revisions and final delivery optimized for your platforms.

Do you travel?

Yes. We cover nationwide for multi-property portfolios, new developments, and commercial or industrial sites. We keep the same crew standards and workflows wherever we shoot, so clients get consistent quality across every market. Travel costs are kept simple and confirmed upfront if applicable.

Do you offer drone coverage?

Yes. We are FAA Part 107 certified and insured. We can capture aerial photos, video, and full fly-throughs depending on what you need

Can you work with our brand guidelines?

Yes. We adjust color, framing, pacing, style, and overall edit direction to match your brand standards or your existing marketing assets.

Can you handle shoots across multiple properties?

Yes. We work with property groups, developers, REITs, and commercial clients who need coverage across several assets at once. We manage scheduling and delivery for all sites.

What if the weather is bad on shoot day?

With all productions, we work together to schedule a target primary shoot date and a backup date from the start, so you always have coverage options. If weather affects exteriors or drone work, we move to the backup date at no cost. Interiors can usually still be filmed as planned.

Do you offer twilight captures?

Yes. We shoot both true twilight and simulated twilight depending on the look you want. True twilight requires a specific window of time around sunset.

Can you shoot while residents are present?

Yes, as long as access is arranged in advance. For occupied units, we ask that spaces are prepped and ready before our arrival.

What video formats do you deliver?

We provide files ready for property websites, ILS platforms, social ads, leasing screens, and internal team use. This includes web-optimized MP4, vertical and square cuts for social, 4K masters, and any custom ratios your marketing team needs. All final videos come with clean versions and compressed versions for easy upload.

Can you create videos optimized for social media?

Absolutely. Social media content is our specialty. We create platform-native videos with captions, proper aspect ratios, attention-grabbing opening seconds, and content designed to stop the scroll. Our clients consistently see higher engagement and positioning after publishing our content.

Do you offer video editing and motion graphics services only?

Yes, we can handle post-production independently if you have existing footage. Our motion graphics team specializes in transforming raw data and static slides into animated visuals. We also provide expert video editing to polish existing corporate content that needs improvement.

What makes Clearform Creative different from other real estate media companies?

We treat each property like a full marketing piece, not a quick shoot. We plan every angle, walk the site, and shape the story around what helps your leasing or sales team. Our edits match your brand, our colors stay true to the space, and our workflow is built for fast turnarounds.

We also work across residential, commercial, industrial, and resort assets, so you get one team that understands every property type and keeps your media consistent across your whole portfolio.

Why do companies choose Clearform for property marketing content?

Clients work with us because we understand how real estate is leased, sold, and presented. We know how to show a property in a way that supports leasing teams, ownership groups, and investors. Our shoots are organized, our crews work fast on active sites, and our edits stay clean and accurate to the asset. We handle apartments, commercial spaces, industrial sites, and larger portfolios. We're trusted by firms like Greystar and Marriot International who can't afford mediocre results.
