You could individually photograph the entire neighborhood as you drive, but then you have to remember where you were, which house was which, etc!
OR – you could use the video setting on your camera, and just video the entire drive! I recently took video of a whole neighborhood, commenting along the way about homes, house numbers, which cross street I was at, etc!
Then, back in the office, I play the video full screen, skipping forward to where I want to be, and then pause the video on the frame of the video to be use. In this case, I wanted a certain house number, and paused the video right in front of the home.
Next, using Jing (screen capture) – I simply hit the hot key (F8) and grabbed a screen shot of the home:
Not bad, right?! And this is MY personal photo instead of an MLS photo. So I can certify I drove by the home and I even have the video recording in my workfile for support!
You can get Jing (for FREE) at http://www.techsmith.com/jing/free/ or pay $14.95 a year for the PRO version. The pro version allows you to edit video screen captures, save in multiple file formats, and even upload directly to Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter! It’s a great program!
And now – I have on file – and ENTIRE subdivision which I drove anyway to get familiar with the area! Don’t tell PITA….but I killed 2 birds with 1 stone!
