So how’s videography going

[@DanielKapelrud]

Hey bro, can we get a three year update pls? Hope you're still crushing it!!

[@BuddyQuaid]

Good video. Most splits for agents these days are 80/20 and most have a cap. Once the cap is paid, they get 100%. Not all brokers do this. But we do have other fees that we always have to pay no matter what for each listing. We pay for photography, videography, magazine ads, online ads, social media ads, e-flyers, actual flyers, extra signage, open house things like food, water, drinks, events for larger houses, cleaners, staging consultations, floor plan creation and I'm sure I missed a few.

Has anyone ever got 6 listings from 20 cold emails? 🤷‍♂️My ratio is way lower... Brandon if you can show me you can get 6 new listings with normal rates from 20 cold emails I will Venmo you $100. I think you are way too optimistic about how hard it is to book a client. Other than that I love the video and your strategies. Thanks for sharing. You rock!

[@josephcapturesofficial]

Expecting 6 listings from 20 cold emails is WAY too optimistic. I think he even knows that.

[@thecaliant]

20 emails maybe for 1 listing, and I would try to give them a call too to see if they even saw my email, they are probably getting tones of emails every day

My mom is a real estate agent in the Bryan College Station area and she has been doing it longer than I've been alive so 17 years and I have grown up with the all the agents so not to brag but I've got a small leg up in the Bryan College Station area. I love this video I am 16 and am starting out I just got my first gimbal with money I earned taking pictures of houses

Can you update this method?? i cant find the agents names or emails anymore it just has a form that says fill out a form to let Zillow know im interested

Morning Brandon thanks for the video

[@King-yr7xm]

Best video on here, Big Facts

[@genepenegenius]

Wow, thank you Brandon. This was awesomely informative. 👍🏾

[@Tom_Nagel]

Lets say you charge $500. Do you include editing of the video? Or do you up-sell to edit each video? I think $500 to shoot it is pretty good, but then you have all the editing to do. Just wondered your thoughts on this. Thanks and keep up the great work!!

[@ahmedreads1794]

agreed. Shooting 6 vids and shooting+editing 6 vids a week aint the same thing

[@angelmediaproductions5369]

He probably has a hired editor.

[@Alexmcasteel]

@@ahmedreads1794 it shouldn't take you more than 1-2 hours to edit a real estate video. Honestly the easiest videos to make.

[@AGONYZE]

Okay, but how do you even start getting experience? How can you start doing this without any real estate videos? How do you START

[@neverland9887]

Maybe you could start making your first real estate video for free? In this way you could test how well your shooting skills currently are and also build up some experience which can be shown to your future clients. Once you kickstart your videographer in the real estate business, you can definitely go on bigger depending on your skills and network. I hope this helps!

This is gold thank you

[@davidcohen2300]

What I have not heard mentioned is ... what if the house does not sell? What does the agent make after spending what must be spent upon advertising? $ 0. There are many reasons why the house does not sell or is taken off the market.

[@sm-fm9kj]

Was in the market for a home in Houston; will you link myself to a current video of yours of a house that is presently on the mls...?

[@thedavidjacob3011]

Great, informative brother 🙏🏻👊🏻

[@TomBuhler1]

Hey so I started doing this but on Zillow and Redfin, I can not find their direct email to contact the agents. It forces me to get in contact with a Redfin or Zillow personnel.

[@GameDayJ816]

I love yo videos bro. You are my biggest teacher & inspiration for pursing videography. I hope to work with you someday

[@danielbaker2061]

What if you never shot any videos before , and you have nothing to show them ?

[@MrAjayCook]

What's up Brandon. Love the video tips. I'm using a Ronin RS3 Gimbal and I recently purchased the Vertical adapter but I see most Real Estate Videographers shoot Landscape. What are your thoughts on shooting Portrait ?

[@bwashmedia]

It really depends on where the realtor is planning on sharing the content. However if you shoot horizontal you can crop for vertical it just won’t be the best resolution

[@KrustableHD]

When emailing agents. What should you write in your subject line?

[@TANZANIAFILMMAKINGTV]

ur genius bro save my life another informative video again

[@jediapostleknight]

Great video! I really enjoy your business vids. Would like to see a more in-depth video on creating contracts to fit each project and pricing.

[@Laertesthebarber76]

how long should a real state video be?

[@drummerkiddd1517]

Your course is fairly priced. Does it include standing out from competition and website design for real estate videographer.

[@bwashmedia]

No it doesn't but that is a good idea. I should add a module for that. Thanks for that Idea.

[@EphemeralFilmCO]

what do I have to do to get the first video for my portfolio??? Rent a nicely furnished air bnb and consider it the cost of the start up?

[@bwashmedia]

Lol that’s exactly one of my suggestions in my newest videos I just posted. Great minds think a lot.

[@memphismagicmirror4022]

No. Contact a real estate company and tell them you normally charge $1200-$2000 for video production but since you’re looking to build your portfolio, you are willing to do it a no cost or a small fee.

[@loudandclearmedia]

It's pretty easy to shoot luxury listings for free, actually. As long as the properties are vacant, the agents usually say yes as long as you allow them to use the finished product. Just be up front with them about building your portfolio. It's how I started building my portfolio, and also made some great relationships which led to many more paid jobs with those same agents. Beats the heck out of paying for an Airbnb and meeting no one along the way.

[@EdgarHernandez-qb4ep]

Hi, I'm from Mexico, how much do you recommend starting making this type of video with a smartphone?

[@GabrielScindian]

What is a good wide angle lens. I usually use ff cams but decided to use my pocket 4k with a new 12mm lens and it was not wide enough at all

[@bwashmedia]

Yeah micro 4/3 typically is about a two times crop. So that gave you a24mm. Not wide enough. I’d go with Lawoa zero D 9mm lens. It has no distortion (they say) but it’s for sure not a fisheye.

[@GabrielScindian]

[@RasKalevthesouljourner]

How do I get real estate jobs just starting out without any previous videos?

[@ksnax]

Sadly, email is likely not a good way to contact many of these higher end agents. One that I know literally deletes 100% of them once a week unless she is texted or told of something important to look for. Everything else she gets is either garbage, answered via other parts of the process, or simply unofficial noise that wastes her time.

[@michaelfrymus]

Agents are NOT willing to spend that much money. They are cheap. Maybe if you have a multi-million dollar house, MAYBE. I shoot real estate here in Toronto, no one will be paying that much. You must be doing a heck of a lot more than just shooting - website, photos, etc. Houses will sell, real estate is a big buy. No matter what, it will sell.

[@nvghtmares]

Agents pay up to $3k at times lol

[@michaelfrymus]

@@nvghtmares Yeah, no. Not true. Have you been paid $3K for shooting a property? If you're shooting architecture, for an architect or a designer, THEN you could expect possibly $3K. But you will NEVER get $3K from a real estate listing

[@nvghtmares]

@@michaelfrymus yes people actually pay $3k ur just in Toronto which I’m guessing doesn’t pay very well

[@nvghtmares]

@@michaelfrymus how many videos do u do a week and for how much?

[@michaelfrymus]

@@nvghtmares For just photography, which agents would much rather have than a video, you're looking at a Max of $400 anywhere within USA and Canada. Even that is very high. Average is about $250/listing for real estate. An agent is there to sell the house. The photos or videos are only temporary. It's not like you're shooting for a brand or architect where they will be used for years and years. An agent would rather just have phone pics or videos than spend $3K on soneone professional. I've heard people pushing it to about a thousand or so for a video, but now that everything is so saturated, and anyone can take photos or videos with their own phone or camera, that's not gonna happen anymore

[@seanmarkbaxter]

Great video! Even though I have a demo reel and website I haven’t done real estate before. I want to get into it but people always ask to see previous experience. How would I go about making a reel if I can’t get the work to make one? I thought about filming local architecture.

[@MindGapMG]

If you can you should ask your friends/family who had a decent house if you can shoot a real estate video of their house to sdd to your portfolio. Then when agents ask you to see what sort of work you produce, you link the demo video in the email. Hope that could help a bit :)

[@RasKalevthesouljourner]

@@MindGapMG thanks!

[@loganripley3750]

Great video! Does shooting and editing only take you 1.5 hours per house or is that just the time spent in the house? How much time do you usually spent at the house vs editing?

Hour in the house 30 min editing and about 30 min exporting and uploading the video for the client.

[@WhirlOmar]

I researched Zillow and I found out that the agent listed there is not always the agent. If they’re not available it goes to another agent immediately. Therefore, since house will be sold to any available agent, would that mean that it’s not worth them to pay for a video when another agent can make the sale?

I want to do this, but I don't have a drone. I have the bmpcc 4k and the Crane 2S. Do you think it's possible to make money via real estate with only this equipment if I charge a bit less money? Obviously, the money I make could be put towards getting a drone.

[@GabrielCastillo-vi3lg]

You don’t need to charge less. I up charge for a drone shot and only use max 10 seconds of drone peppered in. Offer just a “cinematic” video for $400 or $500. If they really want drone tell them it’s an extra $200. And then go buy a used mavic air and it pays for itself in one job.

Possible but most realtors expect you to have a drone now.
