Ready, set, shoot!
As a realtor, one of the most important things you can do for your clients is to help them prepare their home for a ListingView video tour. A well-prepared home will make the video more appealing to potential buyers and help your clients sell their home faster and for a higher price. So take the time to plan out your video. Shut any garage or shed door before you shoot. Here are a few more tips to help your clients prepare their home for a video tour:
- Declutter: The first step in preparing a home for a video tour is to declutter. This means getting rid of unnecessary items and organizing the space to look clean and inviting. Removing clutter will also make the space look larger, which is always a plus for potential buyers.
- Clean: A clean home is essential for a successful video tour. Make sure your clients clean their home from top to bottom, including dusting, vacuuming, and mopping. They should also pay special attention to the windows, as natural light can make a huge difference in the final video.
- Stage: Staging a home can make a massive difference in the final video. This means arranging furniture and accessories in a way that is visually appealing and showcases the home’s best features. Your clients should focus on creating an inviting atmosphere that potential buyers will want to see more of.
- Security: Make sure all family photos, documents, and contracts are put away prior to shooting your ListingView video.
- Lighting: Proper lighting is essential for a successful video tour. Make sure that your clients open all of the curtains and blinds to allow natural light to flood the space. You can add warmth to any room, even where sufficient natural light is coming in through the windows by turning on all the lights in the room. Remember to turn on bedside lamps and in the kitchen any valence or under counter lighting and the range hood lights. This will add ambiance and livability.
