Are Property Video Tours The Best Way To Sell Your Home in Nottingham

February 6th, 2023

Remote Working Is Now Part Of Everyday Life 

Since the global coronavirus pandemic, we’ve all become a lot more dependent on technology. Remote working and Zoom calls became part of everyday life during lockdown, and now that we’ve returned to a more normal way of life, these features still remain. 

I have noticed that technology has also become increasingly prevalent in the housing market. During Covid, people who were still keen to sell their home switched to property video tours, since physically going to a property was impossible. 

Now, although it’s safe to visit other homes once more, many people are still keen to have a property video tour, preferring the convenience that this cutting-edge technology provides.

What Are Property Video Tours?

Property Video Tours are, essentially, videos that give prospective buyers an in-depth property tour in the same way as your agent or you yourself would do on a viewing. Many property video tours are created by estate agents.

What Are The Advantages Of Property Video Tours?

The biggest benefit of Property video tours is that people can enjoy the convenience of looking around a property from the comfort of their own home without having to physically go in person. It’s especially useful for people who are purchasing a property in Nottingham but currently reside elsewhere in the country, as well as for those with mobility issues or who struggle to find time to arrange an in-person viewing due to work, family, or caring commitments.

What Are The Downsides Of Property Video Tours?

While a property video tour is a great way to see inside a property, as a homeowner, if you’re making your own virtual viewing video, it can be very tempting to leave out the more negative elements of your home, and that can lead to problems in the long term so it’s always best to ask your estate agent to create a professional video. 

If you’re planning to offer property video tour of your property, it’s also possible to do so as a live viewing so that prospective buyers can ask you questions, and you get the opportunity to show them everything in real-time with nothing edited out or carefully selected. After all, it’s always best to be upfront with a prospective buyer to avoid negative consequences later.

How Are Property Video Tours Created?

Property video tours can be recorded using a smartphone, although a professional estate agent will usually use sophisticated software. You can help by making sure your home is tidy and clean, and you allow filming at a time when there is optimal light to capture the details of your home properly.

Are Property video Tours Right For Me?

If you’re selling your home in Nottingham and the surrounding villages and are interested in hosting a property video tour of your property, I would suggest that you offer property video tours in conjunction with regular in-person viewings. This way, you can capture the widest possible market. If you would like further information about Property video tours then please get in touch with me Brenton Smith today on 07583 968185.
