Winnipeg Real Estate Media Costs: A Quote Comparison Worksheet
To compare Winnipeg real estate media costs, give each provider the same property brief and ask for the same deliverables. A total alone does not show whether a quote includes photography, on-site filming, a floor plan, aerials or several export versions. This guide is a comparison worksheet rather than a verified survey of local prices.
Build the base scope first
List the rooms, floors and exterior areas to cover, with the address and approximate size. Identify finished basements, detached garages, secondary spaces and shared amenities. Note which spaces are accessible and which require another person’s permission.
For photography, specify intended use and the required coverage. For video, distinguish a filmed walk-through from a cinematic montage or a photo-based production. A shorter edit may still require substantial capture and review, so do not compare video quotes solely by running time.
Put the offers in matching columns
| Quote item | Question to resolve |
|---|---|
| Photography | Which areas and how many final files are included? |
| Video | What is filmed, edited and delivered? |
| Floor plan | How are dimensions obtained and what is the permitted use? |
| Aerials | Are stills, clips or an edited sequence included? |
| Versions | Are vertical edits and branding variants separate? |
| Changes | What revisions, extra time or return visits cost more? |
Plan seasonal access without changing the facts
For a winter appointment, establish safe access and clarify whether yards or exterior structures can be covered. For a later seasonal update, agree which images need replacement and whether another visit is required. Avoid edits that conceal permanent conditions or suggest seasonal features were photographed when they were not.
Weather may affect aerials or an exterior light window. Ask which indoor work can proceed and how a postponement changes the quote and delivery. A provider should confirm feasibility for the address rather than promise every optional shot in advance.
Check what happens after the appointment
Confirm delivery dates for each asset, review time, revision limits, hosting duration and access to final downloads. Usage rights should cover the intended listing, website, social and advertising channels. Ask whether raw files are included only if you need them; payment for an edited deliverable does not by itself define the full licence.
Add travel, parking and applicable taxes to the comparison. If a bundle appears cheaper, compare its exact content with the separate services. A lower total may simply omit a task you need.
For choosing the media itself, use the package decision guide. For the video component, see questions for a videographer. Melon Media’s published packages are for Toronto and GTA services; confirm Winnipeg availability independently.
