SERVICE POLICIES
By ordering services from LaCasaTour, you agree to the following service agreement for digital imagery or print products. These terms are subject to change without notice.
Cancellations: All scheduled real estate photo/video shoot clients must provide 24 hours’ notice of cancellation before the scheduled appointment. LaCasaTour reserves the right to charge a $75.00 fee.
Unable to shoot fee: The client is solely responsible for the preparation and condition of the property to be photographed/video graph. If LaCasaTour is in agreement with client and determines that the site is not properly prepared; cannot access the home; or that preparation of the property will delay the photographer, we reserve the right to cancel the appointment and charge a $75.00 cancellation fee.
Property: It is our policy that the photographer shall not stage or move anything on the property, however LaCasaTour will, at the photographer’s discretion or advice client, to adjust minor things such as window coverings, pillows or turn on or off lights as deemed necessary to better capture the scene(s) and move small items that may be distracting in the photo or video.
Photographer/videographer will do their best to ensure that all significant aspects of the property are photographed unless the condition of said aspect has a negative impact on the property. This shall be left solely up to the photographer’s discretion unless specific aspect(s) of the property are specifically requested by the agent or the homeowner.
Once the home has been photographed/video graph, the service may not be canceled. The agent will be charged the full price of the package ordered. In addition, the photographer will not retouch images in order to disguise any known defects and/or physical structures such as cracks in walls or driveways, power lines, water towers, etc.
The homeowner shall ensure that there are no hazards to the photographer/videographer safety.
The photographer/videographer will do everything to ensure pets stay inside but are not responsible for pets that escape the property during the photography session. Homeowners should ensure pets are supervised and out of view.
Quality: LaCasaTour will provide the client with the highest quality of service and images possible. However, the quality is limited to the subject being photographed/video graph. In other words, a messy and dirty house will produce a high-quality photos of a messy and dirty house.
Time limits: Photo shoots are scheduled for a finite amount of time. Extreme overrun of this time may incur an hourly fee of $100/hour if determined not to be the fault of the photographer/videographer.
Force majeure: LaCasaTour is not liable for any service interruption or cancellation due to weather or force majeure.
Retakes and Rainy Day Policy: If the weather threatens to prevent photography/video, it is the client’s decision to continue or to reschedule. If rain is present, we can shoot the interior as the seller has probably put a lot of hard work into getting it ready for the scheduled shoot. For select exterior shots, we will digitally replace cloudy skies with blue skies. Client may schedule a return for exterior photos at the earliest day possible where the weather cooperates for an additional fee. Another option is we can reschedule the entire shoot to my next available appointment. (No rescheduling/cancellation fees will be assessed for inclement weather.)
Arrival Time: LaCasaTour shall notify any client of a late arrival. Although we aim to be on time to every appointment, we cannot control the traffic, weather, or other factors that may cause a delay. We will make every effort to keep within our agreement time slot and to arrive as scheduled.
Liability: LaCasaTour is not liable for the failure of income of any marketing material we provide.
Online availability of product: LaCasaTour utilizes third party services to host all digital marketing material. Although we have chosen vendors with high availability, routine maintenance and server outages are beyond our control. We assume no responsibility for these outages but LaCasaTour will work to resolve the issues as quickly as possible.
Alterations of Photos: No alteration of photos produced by LaCasaTour is permitted by anyone other than LaCasaTour beyond resolution changes. No use of Photoshop or other image altering software is permitted on any product by the client or associates.
Additional Fees: Any work requested outside of the planned service may incur a fee. This includes additional time on site, and alteration to photos beyond the true scene.
Product turn-around: LaCasaTour guarantees a 24-48-hour turn-around on service render from the time the photographer\videographer leaves the property. Delivery time on products other than photos\video may vary and is not guaranteed within 24-48 hours. Hollywood videos will take an additional 24-48 hours to be completed. Weekends are not working hours. We will make an effort but not guarantee to have completion of services within a 24-48-hour.
Client cooperation: We do our best to get you a finished product as soon as possible. At times this requires cooperation and information from the client in a timely manner. We assume no responsibility for delay of deliverables due to client delays.
Payment Policy: LaCasaTour operates on a fee for service basis, all monies owed are payable upon delivery of invoice, regardless of the sale of the home or other conditions. We accept online credit/debit card payment via invoicing (standard fees apply) or check. All payments must be in within 7 days of invoice. LaCasaTour has the right to make tour inactive. A $25.00 fee to reactivate tour and for returned checks a $40.00 fee, regardless of the amount of the check or the reason it was returned.
