That's actually an easy question. But before I answer that, let me congratulate you on being one of the top realtors in the area, and if you're not already, you will be.
The simple fact that you're here looking at this site shows that you take your career seriously. No doubt you're already on Realtor.com™ and most likely have all the pictures they allow, and maybe even a 360˚ Virtual Tour. I wouldn't be surprised to find out you have your own website too, and that you make sure it's up-to-date.
There are so many realtors out there these days and, believe it or not, there are still plenty who post only one or two pictures, or even worse (gasp) no pictures at all. But you're not one of those, you know that to succeed in today's market you have to go that extra step.
So back to the question, Why choose Video Tours?
Quite simply put, THEY'RE BETTER! It's not a question like what cola tastes better, or which beer is less filling. Plain and simple, VIDEO TOURS ARE BETTER than still pictures or 360˚ virtual tours. I don't have to convince you, take a look for yourself, it's easy to see.
AUDIENCES HAVE BECOME
MORE SOPHISTICATED
When you're flipping around the channels on tv and come across an older movie that has special effects, if you're like me, you notice how bad the effects seem. Now in their day, they were cutting edge and when the movie was first released we sat with our mouths wide open, in awe of modern technology. But not today, we can't even believe we once thought it was good. Compared to today's advancements they don't even come close.
Well, that's how it is with those 360˚ virtual tours. Frankly, they're just not good enough anymore. Viewers are losing patience with "Fish Eyed" distorted views and herky-jerky spastic flying pictures. You know what I mean, sometimes they're just hard to watch. Some companies have taken it to another level by making slide shows set to music and including voice overs. Now this I applaud. At least it's closer to the real thing, but yet, it's still not quite there.
Shows like Trading Spaces™, House Hunters™, and the like, have really spoiled us. We've come to expect more. (continue article)

Slideshow "Video" Isn't VIDEO
There are virtual tour sites out there that offer a "video tour", but quite often these videos are just still pictures set to music in a slide show. They look nice, but only a TRUE VIDEO TOUR will give you that Television Style, and no one does it better than BEST VIEW™
Internet Commercial
Video displays the full value of your property, which will enhance the interest and demand for your listing. Let's face it, if you could put your home on TV for everyone to see, you would. A Video Tour is the next best thing, and it's affordable. Plus, you can have the tour on DVD so you CAN show it on TV.
Photos Aren't Enough
Video shows things a photo just can't. Wind rustling the leaves, running fountains, burning fireplaces. Create action in your presentation, and you create action for your listing.
Sell Yourself
Buyers will meet you in the video. They'll get a chance to see and hear you. Branding is very important. If it wasn't, you wouldn't put your picture on your business card and website.
Easier Marketing
Send the link to your video via email. How many realtors can do that? You'll impress your buyers like no other. Plus, you'll be up-to-date with the latest marketing tool. What does that say about you to your clients? It's says you're on top of things and will help their property stand above the rest.
