Good Morning America Features Miami Luxury Homes’ Drone Video! Posted on February 3, 2015January 13, 2018 by Michael Light Last night, I received an email from a producer at ABC News Good Morning America telling me that Good Morning America is doing a series on drones this week. She told me that she was working on a tape piece highlighting cool things people are doing with drones and the piece will mention real estate. The producer liked my drone video that I posted of Kennedy Park in Coconut Grove back in May of 2014. So, she asked me for my permission to use the video for Good Morning America and across all of the ABC News platforms. I was flattered and excited. Even though it is a brief feature of real estate in Miami, to have my work and my name flagged across the screen on Good Morning America is awesome!

Look! Up In The Sky! It’s A Miami Real Estate Drone! Posted on May 7, 2014January 13, 2018 by Michael Light As reported by Inman News, Drones are Ready for real estate. As a Miami real estate agent and a huge fan of innovative technology, I just had to dive in head first. I recently purchased a DJI Phantom 2 Vision+ after reading many articles about how this third generation system has a 14 MP camera, which is capable of capturing 1080 HD video with a rate of 30 fps and a 3-way gimbal, which gives you buttery-smooth, crystal-clear videos. Here, is the first video that I shot using my real estate drone. It is a video of Kennedy Park in Coconut Grove, Florida, which is close to my home: As you watch my drone video of Kennedy Park*, please understand that this is the very first time that I have ever used any remote controlled quadcopter! As you can see, the video is very clear and stable. Even though my DJI Phantom is rated to climb to 1,000 feet, I was not bold enough to attempt that on my very first flight. I filmed Kennedy Park at 170′, 250′ and then finally at 350′ up. Since most of my Miami real estate buyers are clients that are relocating to Miami, it is important that they understand what they are buying and more importantly, the community where they are buying. What better way to show off a property than to display it from every angle…especially from high above! Consider this…you are interested in homes in Coconut Grove, but you are currently in NYC. You want to know how close a specific Coconut Grove home is to the water…Downtown Miami, Miami Beach, etc.. You could pull up Google Maps, but that is boring. My solution? Boom! I send my drone up to 350′ above the home and shoot you a 360° real estate drone video that will show you the home and all of its surroundings. What about sellers? When I list your property, I will shoot a custom Miami real estate drone video showcasing your home and its proximity to all of the sights that Miami has to offer. Buyers will be more drawn to view your home in person if they have seen an aerial tour of your property and all of its beautiful surroundings. If you, or someone you know, are looking to buy or sell real estate in Miami or simply have a question about today’s Miami luxury home market, please contact Michael Light of Miami Luxury Homes. You can reach me directly at my office at 305-350-9842, on my cell phone at 786-566-1700 or via email at michael@miamiluxuryhomes.com.
