While a great real estate video doesn’t necessarily make a great real estate agent, it certainly helps to showcase and ultimately sell a property. Over the last couple of years, real estate videos have become a key tool for realtors to share their listings and introduce themselves to prospective clients. Videos are a powerful way to draw attention and stand above the competition.

Methodology

There is so much that goes into a real estate video from the initial vision and the cinematographer to the music and the editing that it’s tough to decide which one is the best. Each video has a slightly different draw with its own sense of style and message.

Choosing the best Canadian real estate videos is incredibly tough and obviously there are thousands of videos out there. We’ve picked a couple that we thought captured the best in that particular city. The key points we looked at in each video were how well they showcased the lifestyle, production value, and the message. Each aspect of video production is incredibly important and we have looked at both the individual merits as well as the overall, lasting impression.

Victoria’s Best Real Estate Video:

Realtors: Glynis MacLeod and Kirsten MacLeod
