Selling a Luxury Home in the San Francisco Bay Area demands the best in Video.

June 16, 2011 - PRLog -- Selling and marketing a beautiful luxury home or estate can require unique efforts and talents, especially in these tough economic times.

This certainly applies to the greater San Francisco Bay Area, home of The Matchmakers, a real estate company specializing in the greater San Francisco Bay Area and in France.

Jim Hilgendorf, the principal broker of The Matchmakers, is not only experienced in real estate, but is also the producer of a highly-acclaimed series of travel films, that are in homes, libraries, and schools all across the United States, several of which have appeared on PBS and international television.  He is also experienced in producing corporate promotional videos and documentaries.

Selling and marketing real estate, especially a high quality home or estate, requires more than slick brochures and posting on the multiple listing services.  Even those brokers who deal almost exclusively in luxury homes, and operate through a chain of offices, only have access to a small fragment of the market and of potential buyers.

A picture is worth a thousand words; but a really well crafted video is, well let's say, worth a hundred photos.

Video is just beginning to dominate the world wide web.  Video brings things to life in ways that words and pictures cannot.  Even virtual tours are for the most part awkward and do not capture the vividness of video accompanied with narrative and music.

Below is an example of a video produced by The Matchmakers.

Producing a beautiful video, though, is only the first step necessary to getting your home out to qualified buyers around the United States and the world.  At the Matchmakers, we use our blogs, press releases, social networks, domestic and international broker connections, MLS and real estate sites, and just plain excellent service to market and sell your home.  And great video is one of the key ingredients that makes all of this work.
