Honestly, I don't think any of the aerials do the property justice. I believe you could get a much better perspective from ground shots. In tight neighborhoods like that, aerials are more useful for getting an overall picture of the area, not so much for specific properties. Just my humble opinion.

I would go with #3 as it shows the front of the house and the park. They will see the neighbors garage as soon as they pull up and it won't be a surprise to them.

I like the 3rd one the best, I have never liked the pictures that mainly show the top of the roof since there is nothing worthwhile to see there, haha.

None. They don't add anything that the eye can't see at the home and they're all highlighting negatives of the house.
#1 highlights that you don't have a yard and the house fills up the lot.
#2 shows the closeness to the other structures.
#3 you don't have a clue which house it is.

I think #3 gives a good view of the park if they know what they're looking at. Had you not written what you did, I wouldn't know what I was looking for. I'd use #3 adding an arrow and the word park. Then I'd use #2 adding two arrows pointing at each part of the yard with a description (pool, side yard, etc).

It's not a property that drone photos are needed. I think it does more harm than good. Just go take some photos of the park from the house .... street level to show how close it is and you'll be helping much more than this sea of roofs.

My thoughts on MLS / marketing pictures has almost always been that it's all about the view. In this scenario aerials don't seem to do it justice but shots from inside the home looking out towards the park seem like the choice I would make here. You might capture a wee bit more of its personality looking at it from that perspective rather than 300 feet from above. That's my grain of salt Brian, best of luck!

If you need to use one, I would choose #3 too. I usually don't get aerials of homes in neighborhoods, homes are close together, and all you see are roofs. the park is nice though.

I'd use #2 with the park in the background. In my area, I wouldn't even include these photos. People would freak over the lot size or lack there of. It would be a tough sell here with all that concrete.

Not intended as a negative comment, but my opinion is that just because technology is available, doesn’t mean you have touse it. Likely the areas you would like to showcase would be better presented using quality still photos at ground level.

We use drone shots in our listings to support the important photos. Aerial photos add to the overall photos but do not provide quality by themselves.

Why not all three although when your straight down the drone shots and focus on the roof... it can often show, hey, need a new roof. I would take the bottom shot into photo shop and outline your boundary lines... keeping what is inside that perimeter in color. Then take out the color surrounding it with the other properties to make everything around your listing black and white. To showcase your listing and make it stand out as not so crowded. Drones in a tight neighborhood can work against you in showing look how zero lot lines look and how tightly every home surrounding you really is @BrianSharp .

I would use #3 ... but actually I would use all three! If you have good pictures from the ground level you don't really need to do aerial photos ... but if you are why not use them all? Buyers want to see as much as possible!

#3 shows that it's in a nice neighborhood and #2 shows the back yard and lot size relative to the home.
#1 is redundant if you use the other 2.

Showing the cul de sac works for me. However, Google does all that. I personally like hiring a video guy (not expensive) and they do drone shots, ground and angle. Its like literally being on a tour...

I would not use any of these photos. I find that at times aerial shots are not the best choice for homes in such tight areas. I'd rather show off the front of home and specifics of the home and make it personal and inviting rather than shots of neighbors driveways etc. My goal is always is say WELCOME IN! And I don't believe tons of shots in the MLS do that.....make them want to make an appointment to see the rest.

I wouldn't use any of them honestly. Drones are good for showing property (land) or views. I'd want to buy the neighbors house because of the detached garage though.

In all honesty, I am a bit confused about what we are trying to highlight here. I see a pagoda (or what have you) in picture #2, but a field in the distance in picture #3. Picture #1 I am not sure if that green strip is what you are talking about, or not, & wherever or not that is on the subject property or is the neighboring property. Additionally, I see the pagoda in that shot as well.
Why not just walk over to what you want to highlight and take a picture of it. Since I get the feeling the pagoda is the park, just have a picture take. From the front porch of the property to demonstrate its relation.

If you HAVE to use one, I'd use the 3rd with the addition of an arrow to the subject property. Great comments here from others!

#3 but you need to load the image into Paint or some easy photo adaptation and take a yellow highlighter to note which house is the subject. I would say all three photos do not help the layman (laylady laythey?) to appreciate the Park or the lot. A photo standing in driveway facing the park back to the garage on a clear day will be more informative.

You can use all three in your assortment of photos but I think a front on shot of the home and the trees in front would be more eye catching as a primary photo.
