Sicily Real Estate Videos
The final Realty TV and Real Estate video I'm going to post in this series of blog posts is this one covering Sicily.
Once again this is another one to mix it up. It's another video designed to promote buying real estate in Sicily and not just a specific home!
Cleary the production values are up on this one and I'm tempted to take a trip and see what I can afford to purchase!

Real Estate in DC Current Video
Another in my series of Real Estate Video based on Realty TV show I present a current DC video:
Now this one is a little different that others in the past as it's not promoting a current home for sale or a specific REALTOR. Rather I choose it because it was done to promote the lifestyle and value of living in the Dupont Circle area of DC.
The credits at the end of the video indicate that it had several sponsor that where involved in putting it together including the real estate brokerage Keller Williams. Which was suprising to me as I thought that this video needed a bit of audio editing done to it. Since the sound was missing for a wide part of this video and when it did randomly start it was just random background sounds!

4 Mile Beach Real Estate
Another in my series of current real estate for sale video based upon some of the real estate tv shows I've profiled here is 4 Mile Beach down under in Australia!
Now this video is of an amazing looking home! However, I don't think that the video does it much justice lacking sound and that it is of a very limited number of pictures. In addition, I think that the REALTOR or who ever created it went a little crazy with the transition effects.
But it's the best I can do since dispite this video being older it's one of the newer ones available!

My First Home Sale near Washington
Every time I watch My First Home Sale I end up feeling really sorry for the home owners and the state of the US economy. In this eposide we follow a mom and her son trying to sell their home so they can move a lot closer to the new high school she has enrolled her son in so he has a better chance at being successful as a football player.
Now she is selling a townhouse just outside of Washington DC so you wouldn't think that the local economy would be all that bad, but it seems the housing market certainly is. When we pick up the story the home owner has her condo listed at $250,000 on the MLS system and has rejected an offer $233,000 as far too low.
Well over the course of the show the $233,000 offer ends up being a pretty good one since we watch the home owner lower there price several times chasing the real estate market lower and lower over several months.
Overall very sad.
However the real estate tip to remember is that your first offer is usually your best offer and to not chase a falling market. In a falling real estate market you just need to accept that the prices are dropping and get out in front of it and move on.

Real Hong Kong Real Estate
Another installment in my on going blogging about current real estate in cities that have been profiles in real estate reality TV. Here is Hong Kong real estate for Sale!
This one is actually discussing the enter asian and Hong Kong real estate market. Rather interesting. Especially since may of the homes are similar to those we would find here in North America, not what I expect when I think of buying a home or condo in the far east!
Income Property
Income Property is always an interesting show to watch. Since it's about normal people who wanted to become real estate investors but got in way over there head since they are not able to get there rental units done.
In this show we meet a couple that have purchased a triplex for $450,000 that haven't been able to rent out any of the units yet since they are all in poor condition. Thankfully for them "Income Property" shows up and bails them out a bit.
The show only reinnovates 1 unit for them, which ends up being the top floor penthouse since it's the one that will earn the most money. The real estate investors are smart enough to pick the most expensive reno that will bring them the most money at $17,500 with a projected rent of $1,200 / month.
After that the show becomes a standard reno show.

My First Sale in Texas
As I said in my prior post I watched My First Sale last night and I enjoyed watching this first show of the new season on HGTV.
In this eposide we had a man who had gone through a divorce trying to sell his home. It seems that it had purchased it for $205,000 some years ago and currently owed $200,000 on the mortgage. He certainly wasn't paying down the mortgage very aggressively was he.
In any event after about 60 days on the market it was able to sell the house for $215,000 but in the mean time the back told him that he now owed $209,000 on the house. So after factoring in all of his moving costs he was going to need to come up with $9,000 to sell his home.
Well the REALTOR in order to make this deal happen and because she felt really bad for her client told him that she was waving her fee and got the buyers agent to reduce the amount that they would be paid as well. This meant that he only needed to bring $1,000 to the closing.
So Good news for him.
Unfortantely, the deal fell apart on home inspection, from what we saw on the show it was a bunch of minor items that any home would have but the buyer decided to walk away.
At the end of the show we have the home owner moving out because the bank foreclosed!

Rental Income A Video
Next in our theme of following up a review of real estate tv with a current real estate video is this rental income video that I found on Youtube.
In this one a Vancouver mortgage broker is discussing the income property and how to do it correctly to take advantage of a lot of government and bank programs out there. The important thing that she highlights is that you need to stop collecting rent in cash!

Location Location Location and International Real Estate
Ok so I was bored today and did some Youtube surfing for some good real estate video and came across the following:
Anyways I watchted this real estate video and I had to wonder about the name of the brokerage including "international". I mean real estate is always about "Location, Location, Location" and my location we mean local. Real estate is a local business so I really find it strange that you would be including the name international in your local real estate brokerage.
Thoughts or Comments anybody?

Selling Your Home with Real Estate Video
This one should probably have been one of my first blog posts but I'm finally getting around to it tody. If you have not seen this Real Estate marketing video yet you should since if real estate videos had a top 10 billboard chart it would have been a #1 with a bullet hit.
The production value of this video is top notch and I cannot imagine the cost of it however it is very innovative. With a SWAT team being sent to rescue a girl at the home that is being sold. Over the course of this marketing effort you get a great description of the home and of course you get to view it as well.
Bottom line of course is that it is a very good home selling marketing effort. However since it's on the other side of the world I'm not certain if I'm the target market they are trying to sell to.
