Property Videos for Real Estate
A new innovative way to market homes is through the use of professional and detailed videos. Both buyers and sellers engage with these videos as they showcase the property in its best light, especially if the property has been prepared for sale with some simple design tips. Videos have been around since the inception of YouTube, in 2005, with the real estate industry only now catching up to the innovation and technology to sell and its platform. With people now making the most of their mobile phones, videos are an easy way for them to view the property through their phone.
Property videos can show more intimate features of the property to buyers, such as flora and fauna. They allow us to express what can’t really be said in a photo, and allow emotions to be articulated, something which can be difficult to do with a newspaper advert. Lifestyle benefits, such as showcasing the benefits of living in Fairy Meadow, can be highlighted much more effectively with a property video, allowing you to showcase the property to a buyer to illustrate to them how it will change their lives and what they will enjoy about living in the home.
Some property aspects simply cannot be put into words in a written format. Highlighting aspects such as a trickling fountain, or a cool shaded deck area in the backyard can be difficult to show to someone when they are flicking through a newspaper or magazine. Technology is now allowing us to push this information to someone so that they can see what lies within the property.
Below are some examples of our some of the properties we have sold that have been shown in their best light through our production of their property video as a part of their marketing campaign.
You can easily see why use a video to sell your home. If you’re ready to discover the secrets to being ready to sell your home download our free checklist – Insider Secrets To Being Ready To Sell.

Choosing the Right Real Estate Agency to Sell Your Property: A Guide for Landlords
There comes a time in every investor’s journey where they consider reducing their property portfolio to either free up some capital or reduce debt. This question is probably best answered by your Accountant. And although marketing a property for sale, whilst continuing to receive an income from rent is very appealing, there are a few extra considerations to take into account when you have a renter in place and you are thinking of selling. As a landlord considering selling your property, one of the most crucial decisions you'll make is selecting the right real estate agency to represent you. With various agencies vying for your business, it's essential to weigh your options carefully to ensure a successful sale. One common question landlords often face is whether to stick with the company already managing their property or explore other options. In this video Joanne Danckwardt of One Agency JD Property Agents discusses the factors to consider when making this decision and provide guidance to help you choose the best agency for your needs.

YES, DOWNLOAD MY CHECKLIST Evaluate Experience and Expertise When assessing potential good real estate agencies, consider their experience and expertise in selling properties similar to yours. Look for agencies with a proven track record of success in your local market and expertise in handling investment properties, with superb negotiation skills. Determine whether the agency has experience working with landlords and understands the unique challenges and opportunities associated with selling rental properties. Review their marketing strategies and resources to ensure they have the capabilities to effectively promote your property to potential buyers Seek Recommendations and Reviews Ask for recommendations from fellow landlords or trusted professionals in the real estate industry. Personal referrals can provide valuable insights into the performance and reputation of different agencies. Additionally, research online reviews and testimonials from past clients to gauge the satisfaction level and experiences of others who have worked with the agency. Schedule Consultations Take the time to meet with representatives from potential real estate agencies for consultations. Use these meetings to discuss your goals, ask questions, and assess the agency's approach to selling properties. Pay attention to how responsive and attentive they are during the consultation process. Choose an agency that demonstrates a genuine interest in understanding your needs and objectives. Evaluate Communication and Transparency Clear and transparent communication is vital throughout the selling process. Evaluate how effectively the agency communicates with you and their willingness to keep you informed every step of the way. Ask about their communication channels, frequency of updates, and how they handle feedback and inquiries from potential buyers. If you choose to sell the investment property whilst still tenanted, it is important to remember there are strict rules that must be adhered to. It is important to be aware of the legislative requirements when selling a tenanted property. In our experience, it works best when - The renter is provided with plenty of notice, it helps them to get organized. The process is clearly explained to the renter right from the start and it is adhered to throughout the campaign The property manager has a good relationship with the renter and is the one who initially gives them the confirmation that the property is going to be sold. They can then reassure them if they have any concerns. The selling agent takes the time to introduce themselves and sits down with the renter to create a plan to minimise the disruption to their lives as much as possible Potential buyers are made aware of the conditions of the current lease agreement eg the notice periods required if they wish to move into it themselves Both the selling agent and the property manager are “on the same page” and understand what all parties are trying to achieve. This will give both the owner of the property and the renter confidence in the process.

Respect attachment to sentimental items while ascertaining what what can be donated, sold, or kept. Remember, the goal is to create a comfortable and manageable environment. Familiarity and Comfort When packing, prioritize items that hold sentimental value or are essential for daily life. Familiar items, such as photos, treasured possessions, and a favourite chair, can help create a sense of continuity and comfort in the new space. Pack Strategically Label boxes clearly to make unpacking easier later on. Sort items by categories, such as clothes, personal care items, and keepsakes. If you have specific hobbies or interests, ensure these are still handy to enjoying them. Accessibility and Safety As you prepare, consider any mobility or safety concerns. Ensure walkways are clear, remove tripping hazards, and make necessary adjustments to accommodate any mobility aids that may be required. Keep Essential Documents Handy Gather important documents such as medical records, identification, insurance information, and legal documents. Having these accessible can help streamline the transition. Home Maintenance Arrange for any necessary home maintenance tasks, such as plumbing, electrical, or structural repairs. Leaving the home in good condition not only ensures its future but also provides peace of mind. Financial Matters Redirect mail, notifying relevant institutions about the change in address, and set up automatic bill payments if necessary. Emotional Support Moving from a long-time home can be emotionally challenging. Be patient and understanding whilst feelings are processed. Engage in open conversations about the move, and acknowledge emotions while remembering the positive aspects of the transition. Moving Day On moving day, ensure that the space is well-prepared with familiar items arranged thoughtfully. Arrange transportation and have a plan for unpacking and setting up the new space, making it feel like home from the very beginning.
