What listing media actually costs in Yakima and the Tri-Cities in 2026 — photos, 3D tours, drone, video, and virtual staging, line by line, with real bundle pricing.

Agents ask us this constantly: "What should I actually budget for listing media in Yakima?" The honest answer is that à-la-carte line items each run roughly $150–$500, virtual staging runs $25–$100 per room, and bundling the whole package is almost always cheaper than buying the pieces separately. Below is the full breakdown — typical Central Washington ranges next to exactly what Immerse Vision charges.

## The short answer

For a standard Yakima or Tri-Cities listing in 2026, expect to spend $700–$1,900 on a full media package (3D tour + photos + drone + video, with staging where rooms are empty). A photos-only shoot can come in under $300; a luxury or new-build presentation with cinematic film and twilight can run $2,500–$4,300. The single biggest cost driver is square footage; the second is how many deliverables you bundle.

## Pricing by line item

| Service | Typical Central WA range (2026) | Immerse Vision |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Interior + exterior photos | $150 – $400 | Included in every bundle |
| Matterport / 3D tour | $100 – $400 | From $399 à-la-carte (up to 2,500 sqft) |
| Drone aerial photos | $150 – $400 | Included from the Optimal bundle |
| Walkthrough / cinematic video | $200 – $500 | Included from the Starter bundle |
| Virtual staging | $25 – $100 / room | $39 / room · $150 flat per listing add-on |
| Dedicated property website | $100 – $500 | From $899 · included from Optimal |

Ranges above reflect typical 2026 pricing across U.S. real-estate-media providers and the Pacific Northwest market; actual quotes vary with square footage, travel, and deliverable count. The Immerse Vision column is our published pricing — flat, not per-hour.

## What changes the price

1. Square footage. The single biggest factor. A 1,500 sqft starter home and a 5,000 sqft estate are different shoots — more rooms to scan, more photos, longer edit.
2. Deliverable count. Each added format (3D tour, drone, video, staging, website) adds cost à-la-carte but is discounted inside a bundle.
3. Travel / location. Selah and central Yakima are local; Ellensburg or the far Tri-Cities can add drive time on some providers’ quotes.
4. Vacancy. Empty homes need virtual staging to photograph well, which adds per-room cost — but it is the highest-leverage spend on a vacant listing.
5. Turnaround. Rush / same-day delivery is a premium with most providers.

## Bundle math: why à-la-carte rarely wins

Buy a 3D tour ($399), drone photos ($300-ish), a walkthrough video ($300-ish), and photos ($250-ish) separately and you are already near $1,250 — uncoordinated, on four different timelines. The Starter Listing bundle is $699 (small) / $899 (mid) / $1,199 (large) and ships all the essentials in one 24-hour turnaround. The Optimal Showcase bundle ($1,499 / $1,899 / $2,399) adds virtual staging, drone, and a property website — the package most agents pick to win the listing presentation.

## Where agents over- and under-spend

- Under-spend: skipping a 3D tour entirely. It is the cheapest way to qualify the Zillow SHOWCASE badge and pre-screen buyers — the highest-leverage line item on the list.
- Under-spend: leaving a vacant home unstaged. Empty rooms read as unfinished on a thumbnail; $39/room of virtual staging fixes the scroll-stopping first impression.
- Over-spend: a full luxury cinematic package on a sub-$300k starter home. Match the tier to the price point — Starter is plenty for entry-level inventory.

> **Bottom line** — For most Central Washington listings, the Optimal Showcase bundle ($1,499–$2,399) is the sweet spot — 3D tour, staging, drone, photos, video, and a property website on one 24-hour timeline, for less than buying the pieces à-la-carte.

## FAQ

**How much does real estate photography cost in Yakima?**

A photos-only shoot in Yakima typically runs $150–$400 depending on square footage. Most agents bundle photos with a 3D tour, drone, and video — Immerse Vision’s Starter Listing bundle includes all of those from $699 with a 24-hour turnaround.

**Is it cheaper to bundle listing media or buy à-la-carte?**

Bundling is almost always cheaper. Buying a 3D tour, drone photos, video, and photos separately approaches $1,200–$1,300 uncoordinated; the Starter bundle delivers all the essentials from $699 on one timeline.

Immerse Vision’s à-la-carte Matterport 3D tour starts at $399 for homes up to 2,500 sqft, with a small per-1,000-sqft add for larger homes. Bundled into a listing package it ships from $699 in the Starter tier.

**What does virtual staging cost per room?**

Bundle pricing is the same across our Central Washington service area — Yakima, Selah, Ellensburg, Kennewick, Pasco, and Richland. Square footage and deliverable count drive the quote, not the city.
