Video Impact Of Buying Homes Via The Internet
One message that came across in numerous sessions during this years Real Estate Connect conference, was that “video has captured the next hot trend mantle for real estate Web sites and individual real estate professionals’ blogs.”
Martin Nisenholtz, Sr. VP of Digital Operations for The New York Times Company, spoke about how the Times was about to roll out video for its real estate ads. Charlie Young, COO with Coldwell Banker, said that his company plans to do more with video on its Web site and elsewhere.
And how about the general public? They’re definitely on board with anything on-line. As recent as 2 years ago we have met clients looking to buy a house by getting in their car daily and driving around neighborhoods, spending numerous weekends going to open houses, checking out the market and looking for a real estate agent they wanted to work with.
Today, we meet home buyers that prefer to go online to do all their searching. They believe so much in the integrity of the online experience that seeing a video of a house is just like being there in person. This is a huge impact on how Realtors are listing and selling their properties today. If you’re still hoping one picture and a few Open Houses will get your listing sold, you are certainly not keeping up with the market.
Don’t let this happen to you. Contact us today so we can show you how to stay in front of your clients, your competition, and get your listings sold!
