Online Rendering: What Does It Really Cost?
Search for rendering prices and you will find everything: from EUR 50 to EUR 2,000 for a single image. Architecture firms, freelancers on Fiverr, AI platforms — everyone has their own price list and nobody explains what is included. The result? Total confusion.
In this guide we bring clarity. We show you how much rendering costs in 2026 based on service type, technology used and image volume. No surprises, no asterisks.
Whether you are an estate agent who needs to virtually furnish 20 flats a month or a private seller looking to enhance your listing, here you will find the real numbers to make your decision.
Traditional Rendering vs AI Rendering: The Price Comparison
Traditional rendering — handcrafted with 3D software such as 3ds Max, SketchUp or Blender — requires a 3D modeller who rebuilds the space, places furniture, sets up lighting and materials. Timeframe: 3-7 working days. Cost: EUR 200 to EUR 500 per single image. A package of 10 renderings easily runs to EUR 2,000-4,000.
AI rendering starts from a real photograph and transforms it with artificial intelligence. A professional designer checks and corrects the result. Timeframe: 24 hours. Cost: EUR 26 to EUR 99 per image, depending on the service. A package of 10 images costs EUR 199 to EUR 759.
The saving with AI rendering is between 70% and 90% compared to the traditional method. The quality for property marketing — portal listings, social media, brochures — is comparable. For complex architectural projects (construction sites, luxury villas from blueprint), traditional rendering remains useful. For everything else, AI is the rational choice.
Rendering Price by Service Type
Furnished 2D Floor Plan — from EUR 26. The cadastral floor plan transformed into a coloured layout with furniture. The most affordable service, ideal for every property listing. Estate agents advertising on Rightmove should have one for every property.
Interior Rendering — from EUR 45. Refreshes an existing room: new colours, materials, furnishings. Perfect for showing the potential of a property that needs renovation. The AI interior rendering price is 10 times lower than a traditional 3D studio.
Virtual Staging — from EUR 55. Empty rooms furnished with photorealistic furniture. The most requested service among estate agents: an empty flat generates 73% less interest than a furnished one.
Exterior Rendering — from EUR 72. Facade, garden, evening lighting. Essential for construction projects and villas. Traditional costs for an exterior rendering start at EUR 300.
Video Home Staging — from EUR 99. A single photograph becomes a cinematic video with movement and light. Perfect for Instagram Reels and video listings on portals. The most engaging format for buyers.
Packages and Volume Discounts: How to Save
The single prices are competitive, but packages make the real difference for high-volume users. RenderSubito offers two discount tiers: a 5-image package and a 10-image package.
Concrete example — Interior Rendering: single EUR 45, pack of 5 at EUR 175 (EUR 35/image, 22% discount), pack of 10 at EUR 310 (EUR 31/image, 31% discount). On 10 images you save EUR 140 compared to the single price.
Concrete example — Virtual Staging: single EUR 55, pack of 5 at EUR 219 (EUR 44/image, 20% discount), pack of 10 at EUR 385 (EUR 39/image, 30% discount). An estate agent who was staging 10 rooms a month paid EUR 550 at the single price. With the package they pay EUR 385.
For estate agents with volumes above 20 images per month, custom terms are available. The principle is simple: the more you order, the less you pay per image. No subscription, no commitment.
How to Choose the Right Service (Without Wasting Budget)
Empty room to sell → Virtual Staging (EUR 55). The buyer needs to picture life in that home. Virtual furniture makes that possible.
Property needing renovation → Interior Rendering (EUR 45). The buyer sees the potential beyond the 1980s kitchen. The rendering shows them the finished result.
Any property on portals → Furnished Floor Plan (EUR 26). Costs less than a coffee per viewing it generates. The service with the best cost-to-result ratio.
Villa or construction project → Exterior Rendering (EUR 72). Facades, gardens, pools. Shows the completed project before it is completed.
Social media ad or premium portal → Video Home Staging (EUR 99). Video generates twice the interactions of a static photo. On Instagram and portals it makes the difference.
How Much Does Rendering Cost? Less Than You Think
