Real Estate Video in Canada: Toronto, Vancouver and Beyond

Canadian listing video follows the same three-photo approach as the US with a few local turns: condo-heavy markets in Toronto and Vancouver, long winters that decide when exteriors get shot, and rules on drones and privacy that are worth checking before the first aerial. Villenza's pricing is in US dollars and the product works the same north of the border.

Condo markets

Toronto and Vancouver are condo markets first, and the condo guide applies: corner dollies, view pushes, a clip for the building amenities. In Vancouver, water and mountain views lead; in Toronto, light and layout.

Winter exteriors

Snow is honest and, exposed properly, handsome. Shoot exteriors on a bright day, expose for the snow, and keep each clip in one weather. Add a summer exterior set when the season comes; the interiors carry over.

Drones, privacy and language

  • Drone work in Canada follows Transport Canada rules; commercial operators need the appropriate pilot certificate, and urban airspace is restricted.
  • Provincial privacy rules apply to photographing neighbours and shared spaces — keep other homes and people out of the photos.
  • In Quebec and bilingual markets, caption in both languages; the video itself carries no text.

Questions

Is Villenza available in Canada?

Yes. Plans are priced in US dollars on the pricing page; everything else — moves, reels, the planner — is the same.

Can I put the video on realtor.ca or my board's MLS?

Check your board's rules on video and branding; most allow a link to an unbranded walk-through. Download the original from Villenza and host it where your board expects.
