Luxury Real Estate Marketing – Video Smart Books

In the luxury real estate industry, video marketing can make or break a sale. Though creating video marketing campaigns can be more time consuming and costly, the effort pays off – literally – as over 70% of homeowners say they are more likely to list with a realtor that uses video marketing. Despite the consensus that video technology is a useful real estate tool for both buyers and sellers, only around 9% of agents utilize this technology.

Why use video technology in real estate?

• Growth and increased conversions – Companies who incorporate the use of video marketing strategies experience growth 49% faster than the competition and generate up to 80% more conversions.
• Improved connection with clients – In a social media age, consumers only retain approximately 10% of the information they read; however, video marketing technology can increase retention rates to 95%.
• Stand out from the competition – Not only are homeowners more likely to list with video-savvy agents, but potential clients spend up to 88% more time engaging with content that includes video.
• Reach a broader audience – In a growingly technological world, it is increasingly apparent that video technology is a useful and sought-after marketing technique in the real estate industry, particularly regarding the purchase and sale of luxury real estate. As many luxury real estate properties are purchased remotely, an effective video marketing campaign can expedite the process and attract a broader range of clientele.

There are a variety of video marketing applications in the real estate industry, including:

• Listing Videos

As noted, video listings are demanded by consumers but underutilized by agents; take your listing to the next level with a high-definition video home tour showcasing the interior and exterior of the property.

• Neighborhood/Community Videos

Many homebuyers believe that the surrounding neighborhood and community is even more important than the property itself when purchasing a new home – attract more potential buyers by including video footage of nearby parks, businesses, and developments.

• Drone Videos

The use of drone footage in real estate is becoming increasingly popular as they provide amazing aerial images of both the home and the surrounding property.

• Agent Introductory Videos

As mentioned, people are much more likely to engage with and remember video content over text content; build a personal relationship with new and potential clients through “About Me” videos.

• Testimonial Videos

Frequently, the best business promotion is word-of-mouth – testimonial videos from former clients, local businesses, and colleagues can help grow your real estate business.
