Making these work in real estate
- Say the price in the first second. Price is the hook in real estate; withholding it reads like a sales funnel and viewers swipe before the tour starts.
- Film vertically inside the property, handheld. A phone walkthrough tends to beat polished brokerage b-roll because viewers want to feel like they're snooping, not being marketed to.
- Anonymize deals but keep the numbers real. Blur names, keep dollar amounts — specificity is what makes negotiation stories feel true instead of scripted.
- Make content for other agents too. Agent-to-agent videos on scripts, listings, and lead flow build referral business even when consumers scroll past.
