Free Real Estate Photographer
Service Agreement
One greasy-fingered agent 'forgets' to pay and suddenly your three-grand kit is a paperweight you can't afford to fix. Without a signed ironclad, you’re just a charity with a lens waiting to get sued over a trip-and-fall on a loose rug.
Pro Contractor Tip
Insert a 'Usage License' clause that explicitly terminates their right to use the images the second the invoice goes past due.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Real Estate Photographer, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
The agent wants 'just five more quick shots' once I’m already packed up. How do I charge?
That's scope creep, plain and simple. Point to the 'Additional Services' section of your agreement and tell them extra shots are a change order billed at your flat per-image rate.
They’re telling me they’ll pay me once the house closes. Is that normal?
You're a contractor, not a bank or a real estate partner. Use your contract to mandate payment within 48 hours of delivery so you aren't left holding the bag if the house sits on the market for six months.
What if the homeowner claims I scratched their hardwood with my tripod?
If you don't have a 'Limitation of Liability' clause, you're an open target for every pre-existing scratch in the house. A written agreement sets the boundaries of your responsibility and forces them to prove you caused the damage.
