TheMoveChannel.com is dedicated to finding new and exciting methods of buying and selling property, and in the ever expanding and competitive property investment industry, it is increasingly important to offer buyers and sellers fresh, dynamic solutions.
Due to go live in December 2008, TheMoveChannel.tv will be the first dedicated property video site in the UK, and will feature a superb new design from Bridger Conway, a high profile Argentinean design and branding company.
Agents and individual sellers will be able to upload videos of their properties onto the site, adding an extra dimension to their online sales presence.
Video tours can provide potential buyers with an "insider's view" of a home whilst making the whole process of searching for a property more enjoyable and interactive.
Furthermore, the whole process of listing, lead generation and sales contact has been simplified to ensure that everything is as easy and pain-free as possible.
TheMoveChannel.tv will offer users a number of cost effective options, including:
• Cost per lead rate.
• Fixed rate (Single residential property).
• New development rate.
• Corporate partner profiles.
• Translation and conversion services.
• Video production services.
Existing agents and partners can also benefit from video listings upgrades, including:
• A ‘big splash’ feature.
• Country upgrades.
NB. For a detailed description of each package, please see ‘notes for editors’ section below.
Dan Johnson, Managing Director of On The Move, enthused: "Video is set to be the next big thing in online property. If a picture tells a thousand words, a moving picture must equate to a novel. Quite simply, there is no better way for an investor or holiday home buyer to get a feel for a property and the local area.
“Clever agents and developers will maximise the visual impact of the property itself, the immediate surroundings and the atmosphere of the local area, in order to really excite buyers”.
TheMoveChannel.com prides itself on being at the forefront of property purchasing innovation, and with TheMoveChannel.tv gearing up to launch, interest in this next stage of the ongoing evolution of dynamic property listings is bound to be strong.
Dan Johnson concluded: "We're sure that there are many other agents and developers out there who understand the impact of video and we can't wait to start working with them to make the most of this fantastic opportunity."
