Pursuant to Federal Aviation Administration rules and regulations, the use of drones for commercial purposes is prohibited unless an exemption is granted to an individual or entity to use drones/unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) commercially. So far this year, the FAA has issued hundreds of exemptions to individuals/entities to use drones for commercial purposes. REALTORS wishing to use drone/UAV footage of a property should only use an individual or entity that has received an exemption from the FAA. Failure to do so may subject the licensee and their broker to liability and/or disciplinary action by federal and state agencies. Learn more here.
