Ziplist vs. hiring a real estate photographer
Both get you professional listing photos. The difference is time, money, and who holds the camera.

| Booking | Usually 2 to 3 days out | Shoot today |
| Time on site | Photographer's schedule | About 30 minutes, on your schedule |
| Delivery | Usually 24 to 48 hours | Under 60 minutes |
| Photos | Typically $150 to $350 | $39, up to 40 photos |
| Staging, declutter, twilight | Usually extra, often per photo | +$24, unlimited |
| Video | Separate package | +$34 (MLS video + 4 reels) |
| Listing website | Sometimes | Included |
When a photographer is the better pick
Luxury productions, drone footage, and 3D tours are still a photographer's job.
When Ziplist is the better pick
Most everyday listings, especially when you want photos live today, need to control costs, or want to reshoot a room without rebooking anyone. Ziplist guides every shot on your iPhone and returns professionally edited, MLS-ready photos in under 60 minutes.
