Who it's for
Photographers and fast learners with $2,500–$9,000 who want repeat B2B clients instead of weekend events. You should be willing to spend several weeks validating before buying gear, and to accept that turnaround time, not artistry, is what agents rebook on.
About this playbook
Turn a camera and $2,500–$9,000 into a real estate photography business with repeat agent clients. The guide validates demand before you spend a dollar, prices tiered packages from stills to video and floor plans, sizes the kit and the break-even with four generated tables, registers the single-member LLC and the FAA Part 107 certificate, then wins the first ten agents by name and judges the real numbers at day 90. The actual product is the 24-hour turnaround with outsourced editing at a few dollars per set — the decision that decides whether you scale or drown. It does not cover wedding or event photography, multi-shooter teams, or national listing-media contracts.
