Property video in Dunedin: villas, winter sun and the student flat cycle
Selling or letting in Dunedin often turns on three questions: how much of the original villa survives, where the sun falls in winter and, near the university, how many bedrooms a flat really offers. Notlith makes property videos remotely from your listing photographs, plans and documents, with direction, AI-assisted movement, editing and sound, and without improving the house.

Original features and recent work
Dunedin's housing mixes Victorian and Edwardian villas, brick houses and bungalows with newer builds. Buyers look for the original features, native timber floors, ceiling roses, sash windows, and then want to know what has been updated. A clear video separates the two instead of blending them into one glossy impression.
We follow the house room by room and caption renovations only as your documents describe them: a rewire, a new kitchen, a replaced roof. If something has not been done, the video does not imply it. Building reports stay with the agent, and the film simply invites viewers to ask for them.
Where the winter sun reaches
On Dunedin's hills, aspect matters. A north-facing living room and a sheltered deck are worth showing, and a south-facing bedroom is not a defect to hide. Photographs taken at different times of day tell that story honestly, especially if one of them was taken on a winter afternoon. A photograph of the deck at midday in July is more persuasive than a summer evening ever could be.
We never paint sunlight into a room photographed in shade, and we do not brighten a valley that loses the sun early. If your images only show summer, we caption them by season. Heating and insulation are named only as they appear in your listing information, never inferred from a radiator in the corner of a frame.
Flats near the campus
In North Dunedin, student flats are commonly let well before the academic year begins, and groups of future flatmates compare them quickly on their phones. A short vertical walk-through showing each bedroom, the kitchen, the number of bathrooms and the heating does more for them than a cinematic opening.
Landlords who mention the Healthy Homes standards should state only the compliance they can document. We show heat pumps, extractor fans and insulation where they exist in your photographs, and leave formal compliance statements to the listing and the tenancy paperwork.
Harbourside and peninsula homes
Houses along the harbour at Macandrew Bay, Portobello or Port Chalmers sell partly on the water and partly on a lifestyle that includes a winding drive into town. Both deserve a fair representation, because a buyer who feels misled on the first visit rarely makes an offer.
The view appears only from the windows where it was photographed. Travel times and the character of the road are described in words supplied by the agent rather than suggested by a sweeping aerial shot. We do not add jetties, boats, gardens or a calm sea that were not in the original images.

Plan the details
Can the video include a floor plan?
Yes. A plan is a useful anchor for older houses with additions, and we can highlight each room as the video moves through it.
What if our photographs are from a previous sale?
Tell us what has changed since. We use older images only where they still represent the property and flag any that do not.
Can you show the steps up to the front door?
We prefer to. On a sloping section, access is part of what buyers and tenants need to know, so we show it plainly.
Do you produce videos for rental listings?
Yes, including short vertical versions for student flats. The same rule applies: every room as photographed, nothing added.
