Non Compete Non Solicit

What is the Non Compete Non Solicit?

The Non Compete Non Solicit agreement is a protective contract for real estate photography businesses and 3D tour providers that hire employees or engage independent contractor partners. It establishes a defined geographic radius and post-separation time period during which the covered party may not work for competing visual-media services, solicit the company's clients or referral partners, or recruit its staff. The template includes blue-penciling provisions, injunctive-relief clauses, and permitted exceptions tailored to the real estate photography industry.

When should you use this form?

Use the Non Compete Non Solicit when bringing on a new photographer, drone operator, Matterport or iGUIDE technician, or floor-plan drafter — whether as a W-2 employee or a 1099 contractor. It is also appropriate when an existing team member is being promoted to a client-facing role, gaining access to pricing data, vendor contacts, or proprietary client lists for the first time.
