I have an out of state buyer from Washington state that came to Arizona about a month ago. They called me up two weeks ago to put an offer on a house. They won the bid. However, they are unable to come down. So, I offered to video the home inside and outside so they can obtain a better view inside the house. I sent them the video yesterday morning. Voila, they are going ahead with the purchase. So, I wanted to share my TOP FIVE REASONS FOR USING VIDEO TO SELL REAL ESTATE

  1. Video gets stronger responses from people versus text and photos.
  2. Video lets you literally demonstrate benefits and key features of a property in real-time while text and photos only allow you to describe and show them.
  3. Video tours provide people who need to relocate a more realistic perspective of living in the property, thus giving them a better feel and experience compared to just text and photos.
  4. Video allows you to be much more creative and personal in your marketing tactics when compared to photos and text.
  5. If potential buyers had a choice between watching a descriptive and informative video tour or reading text and looking at photos, most would pick the video.

How many of you have thought about using video for real estate? I have been doing a lot reserach on reasons to use video in my real estate business. Here the top five reasons that I thought were important. I am about to develop a series of videos on why people need to invest in real estate as part of their long term retirement plan. Also, I want to develop a video on my network partners.

Have you thought about using video?

Are you using video? Is it successful? Comments would be appreciated.

I have been doing my research on this for the past couple of weeks.  I want to be able to incorporate this into my website as well.

I am exploring the various camera options now to find the best one for the price, etc.

Thanks for the post.
