But now you can use video and it will give you the biggest advantage over your competition.
95% of buyers and Realtors use the internet to to find and pre-qualify homes, land and commercial properties. Most websites are still offering a few pictures and some text. But even though a pictures can say more than a thousand words, a video can say more than a thousand pictures.
Online videos are quickly becoming the tool of choice for many marketing effort, including real estate. The content of the videos can vary widely, which means you can present a home, show a walk around or introduce a Realtor and his knowledge about the real estate market.
Creating videos on the internet has become an easy process.
