SCOTTSDALE, AZ—Will the skies soon be filled with drones to help brokers market their properties and e-commerce users deliver product? It’s an interesting question for Don Catalano of iOptimize, not only because of his real estate focus, but also because he’s an instrument-rated pilot. So we asked him—at the recent SIOR Spring World Conference here—and Catalano mapped out a complex and legislatively challenging issue. 

In our discussion, we’ll cover such topics as:

  • Why the FAA takes a dim view of the use of drones for commercial purposes;
  • Fighting the flood of misinformation;
  • The serious threats that exist if there is no reasonable regulation; and
  • The widespread potential beyond commercial real estate.
