Worst Real Estate Videos on YouTube - Boring slide shows and using sex to sell real estate

Yet another slide show is this week’s featured worst youtube real estate video. A bad slide show. No editing whatsoever as far as I can tell. Just a quick jump from one out-of-focus photograph to another.

And just a few little details left out – such as where exactly this house is, how much it costs or who is selling it. The kind of details you might think were worth including on a “Treasure Lake Real Estate Homes For Sale,” video. No attempt has been made to do anything with this video. Not even a sound track added.
Which actually brings me to another question about real estate videos posted to youtube. I did find a few recently with what I consider to be good backing music. But then I had a thought – Who owns that music? Did the real estate agent go to the trouble of asking and paying for permission to use a piece of music by Sting, for instance? I wonder if Mr. Sting knows his music is being used to sell a million-dollar plus home? I wonder if he wants a cut? Knowing Sting, I suspect the answer is yes.

I also love these two guys – they are sooooo bad, they are funny. Does sex sell real estate? Silly question really.

That’s hilarious. Are those guys trying to be funny? It looks like a couple of kids just got hold of their parents video camera and are trying to make a fake TV show, he gets so giddy eyed when they talk about models, and then they just keep rambling on… And his wife is an attractive young lady…. where’d he buy her at?

Where did that video come from?

I I find it so funny because I really think they are serious…… :D

Mini-film release dedicated to the Forgotten War… the Korean War. New marketing concept for selling homes that incorporates current headlines. If you are tired of boring real estate videos and think slide shows are the absolute worst youtube videos… then check out this video… and you decide.

Thanks Marcie - I like it. Good idea.

Do you have a better quality version hosted somewhere I could watch ?

Does sex sell real estate?

Do we really know? Everyone has an opinion, but is there any empirical data?

My guess is that it does sell. After all, it has been proven that a man is more likely to buy from a woman, and a woman is more likely to buy from a man. Hmmm.

I think everyone should put their opinions on hold until someone does a scientific study.

Well, if you have the funding, I am ready to start the study. All in the name of research you understand…… :)
