Actress Elizabeth Banks will sell your home!

Most people at least know her face. She has been in like 70 films (Hunger Games) and is probably best known now for her Realtor.com commercials that have been aired on TV for almost 2 years now.

Now Realtor.com has announced a new way to promote your home, have Liz sell it! The way it is going to be done is you produce a video starting at your front door. Then they place Elizabeth in the video in front of the house touting it in some light and generic way.

Green screen effect no doubt, can't wait to see it!

Good morning Marco. We all know that smoke and mirrors are costly and mostly ineffective! Enjoy your day!

I am sure will soon become a licensed agent to start collecting referral fees for assisting in selling the home.

Does she want a referral fee, as well, Marco? Of course, I had no idea who she even was until you told me!

Am I the only one who is wildly disturbed by how Realtor.com is using highly paid actors/actresses to brand and advertise Realtor and buying and selling homes?

Not sure why it would make you "wildly disturbed" at all, please explain.

That is interesting and different. Anything that makes the listing stand out I suppose.

Good morning Marco. I know an agent that can use this. I'll pass it on to him. I know he'll have fun with it.
