How much does a TV production company pay for using a property in a sought after area for filming. Very nice large house, stands out from the others in the area that would be available.
Has anybody got any experience?
Thanks for you replies!!

It depends on whether it will be hours or days, and how much disruption will be caused. E.g. £500 - £1000 per day or £50 - £100 per hour. If they require your house for exterior shots only then it will be at the lower price bracket. You need to contact the location managers at major TV companies - regional BBC headquarters, ITV regions etc. There are agencies such as lavishlocations.com who will hold your property's details in a library and send out your details to interested parties. Part of your fee will then be paid to the agency for their work. Get a professional photographer to take some quality photographs of your house which are well-lit, and don't be tempted to do it yourself on a small digital camera. Remember that you are looking to impress. Best of luck - my small terraced house has been the location for a BBC Wales drama. I was lucky in that someone just came and knocked at my door.

Try coming up with a figure based on the value of the house. If the house is worth, say, $500,000 then a daily charge for using it could easily be $5000. You also want a contract that says they will repair any damages to the property... and when you bring in a production company SOMETHING WILL be damaged.
Check with a local Real Estate Agent and get some ideas.

hi Sky, i would not ideas it in any respect if filming took place in my section yet regardless of the certainty that, i'm me. every person has the superb suited to attraction movements which influence them so i've got faith they have been justified in attempting to ban the filming yet i'm hoping those human beings had an outstanding rationalization for it. i would be flawed yet won't property values upward thrust if the action picture is useful? No, productions have in no way got here approximately close to my residing house and that i've got in no way even met an actor. Why ought to what my pals do hardship me till it negatively impacts my way of existence? I do think of that folk residing in a community ought to grasp what's being filmed and the time-physique. The actors that could galvanize me sufficient are: a million) Robert Carlyle 2) Emma Watson 3) Amanda Tapping 4) David Hewlett 5) Daniel Radcliffe 6) Will Smith 7) Bruce Lee 8) Rupert Grint 9) Maggie Smith 10) Alan Rickman 11) Tom Felton 12) Helena Bonham Carter 13) Gary Oldman

No set rate for this.
Check if they need power though - that's a good bargaining point.
It rather depends on the scale of the production.
Some TV shows are made on budgets of as little as ten thousand pounds so don't assume it's megabucks time.
Even if it's BBC or Channel Four or someone who sounds big, it might be a humble production company (like mine) doing it for them for peanuts.
Such is the way of our industry these days.
If not, start high and negotiate downwards.
Be warned though - filming is laborious and not very interesting to watch.
A lot of the programmes are too.

Varies from between nothing to several thousand pounds. Compensation usually depends on the amount of disruption - but not always.
For some reason educational (schools) programmes always have smaller budgets.

often depends on the client they are filming for, also depends on what budget they have for the shoot and what they are spending on media. But it really all depends on what would you be happy with for what can be total disruption?
