How Drone Footage Can Boost Your Listings in Alaska 🚁🏡

Alaska is one of the most visually stunning places in the world—mountains, forests, water, wide open land.

But if your listing photos never show any of that, buyers are only seeing half the story.

That’s where drone photo and video come in. For Alaska Realtors, aerial media isn’t just a “cool extra” anymore—it’s one of the best tools you can use to:

• Show off land, surroundings, and access

• Help buyers understand location and scale

• Make your listing stand out instantly online

Let’s break down how drone footage can seriously boost your listings (and your brand).

1. Show the Whole Property, Not Just the Front Door 🌲

Standard ground photos are great for interiors and curb appeal—but they’re limited.

With drone photos and video, you can:

• Show the size and boundaries of the lot

• Highlight driveways, parking, and outbuildings

• Capture water, trees, mountains, and views that are impossible to see from the ground

For cabins, homes on acreage, or properties outside town, this is huge. Buyers can finally see:

“Oh, that’s how big the yard is.”
“Now I see how far it is from the house to the shop.”

That kind of clarity builds excitement and confidence.

2. Help Out-of-Town Buyers Understand Location 🌎

Alaska gets a lot of:

• Relocating families

• Military moves

• Job transfers

• Lifestyle buyers coming from the Lower 48

They’re not just buying a house—they’re trying to understand where that house sits:

• Is it close to town?

• What’s the neighborhood like?

• How far is it from the water, main roads, or trails?

Drone footage can show:

• Proximity to roads, schools, parks, or lakes

• Whether the home is tucked away in the trees or more open

• How the property fits into the surrounding area

Instead of guessing on a map, buyers get a visual feel for where the home really is.

3. Make Your Listing Stand Out Instantly Online ⚡

Scroll any real estate site or social feed and ask yourself:

Which listing catches your eye first?

• 20 “normal” photos
  vs.

• Beautiful interior photos plus a dramatic aerial shot and drone video

Most buyers will click the one that looks different.

Drone media helps your listings:

• Look more premium and polished

• Stand out on Zillow, the MLS, and social media

• Get more clicks, saves, and shares

It also sends sellers a clear message:

“This Realtor doesn’t cut corners on marketing.”

4. Tell a Stronger Story About Lifestyle 🎣❄️

In Alaska, people aren’t just buying a home—they’re buying a lifestyle.

Drone footage helps you show things like:

• Space for boats, RVs, snowmachines, or trailers

• Proximity to trails, water, or open land

• Large decks, yards, and outdoor living areas

Your listing stops being “a three-bedroom house” and becomes:

“A home with room for your gear, your hobbies, and your Alaska life.”

That emotional connection matters when buyers are comparing multiple properties.

5. Level Up Your Brand as a Realtor ⭐

When your listings consistently use drone photos and video, you’re not just helping that one property—you’re building your reputation.

Sellers start to notice:

• Your marketing looks elevated compared to other agents

• You’re investing in visuals that match the value of their home

• You’re willing to use modern tools to give their property every advantage

It’s easier to say in a listing presentation:

“Every listing I take gets professional photography and, when appropriate, drone coverage so buyers can truly see what your property offers.”

That helps you win listings, impress clients, and stand out from the crowd.
