What is brHomelistings?
It’s the first real estate listing website designed primarily around video as a means of reaching potential buyers. The system is designed to quickly connect buyers with the property that the buyer is looking for. Here are some ways in which we’re making finding a home in the Greater Baton Rouge Metropolitan area faster, more effective and more fun:

Video! Video! Video!
Buyers have said it… Sellers and Realtors have said it… Market Analysts are saying it. Now, as if it we’re from a Beetle Juice episode, video is here! Video is in the process of revolutionizing the way real estate is marketed and sold online. Our real estate search engine is designed to really encourage users to use video along with their listing. Of course, we do pictures and text as well, but hey, that’s so 1999 and boring! People want to see video and current web trends are strongly reflecting that. We’ve made it simple to cut & paste a simple youtube video URL and have the video professionally displayed on your listing’s page.

Single Click Search (Touch Search)
By clicking or touching once on a search option in the search page, the listing results automatically narrow down to show only those listings with that particular criteria. Each time you click or touch a new option, the results continue to narrow down accordingly. This new search feature will make searching for a home easy and fun on all new touch-based mobile devices!

Jot and Jump
Jot and Jump is our revolutionary new way to quickly pull up a house that a buyer finds while driving around. Our brHomelistings.com yard signs (provided by Fast Signs) have a space where the Jot and Jump number is printed in LARGE BOLD characters. When a buyer sees a brHomelistings.com yard sign she only needs to visit brHomelistings.com and type in the Jot and Jump number on the home page and click “Jump To It!” In one click, the listing will be displayed for her. Simple. Fast. Extremely effective. You can even provide jot and jump numbers on your own flyers, cards, etc to quickly direct buyers to specific listings on brHomelistings.com

Realtor Spotlight
We don’t just want to reinvent the wheel, we want to redefine it. What is the Realtor Spotlight page? Well, in short, it is what the majority of Realtors today want when they go hunting for a way to publish their own website–and more. A place to post your name, agency, contact information and your listings. Only, we’re taking it a step further–and in a way you’re gonna love. We’re building the full Touch Search feature right into your Realtor Spotlight page so that visitors can search only your listings! Send out a link to your Realtor Spotlight page via email, facebook, text, twitter or however you choose, and when visitors come to it, they will see no competing agents or advertisements. It’s okay, we could almost cry with excitement too!

Did Somebody Say FREE?
Like a cheap commercial from the 1980′s we just want to say “and that’s not all!” It’s true, every feature listed above is provided at no charge to the buyer, seller or realtor.

We have so many ideas that if we tried to pack them all in before launch, we would never launch. What we’re providing at launch is just the tip of the iceberg. There is a contact us form displayed on the site that can be used to send feedback, bug reports and suggestions. We’re looking forward to revitalizing and re-energizing real estate in the Greater Baton Rouge Metropolitan Area with you!

http://www.batonrougerealestatebuzz.com/ – More Details Released About Baton Rouge Metro Areas First Video Real Estate Listings Website – brhomelistings.com!

On September 8th, Buzz delivered to you news about the Metro Areas “First” Video Real Estate Listings Website here: Baton Rouge Real Estate Buzz: Metro Areas First Video Real Estate Listings Website – brHomeListings.com! At that time, the only details Kevin DeLaune, with RealtyStudioHD, would offer was that the site would be launching in the near future and “brHomeListings.com is Baton Rouge’s first local real estate website to incorporate video as an essential component in real estate marketing online!”

The following details below were released from brhomelistings.com just prior to site launch. This will be a “beta version”. Kevin stated that, ” In the near future, as we continue to grow and receive feedback, there will be many more features added.”

“At launch, some of the site’s key features will be:

• Free listing insertion ( no charge to submit listings into the search engine )
• Free video embedding of user created video tours or professional video tours
• Free unlimited photo uploads
• Unified FSBO and Agent listing search
• Advanced single touch search to accommodate new touch-based mobile devices
• The ability for buyers to “watch” listings for price drops
• Management of the user’s submitted and “watched” listings will be via a familiar mlooking youtube-esque management system
• Listing pages will employ automatic google maps based geo-location by listing address
• Realtors can integrate their twitter accounts for automatic tweets of new listings to their twitter feed
• Realtors can create an exclusive non-competitive ( no competing realtors or ads ) “Realtor Spotlight” page with full listing search capabilities of the realtor’s active listings”

Buzz Perspective. From the Buzz perspective, the addition of video listings to the Greater Baton Rouge Real Estate landscape will be greatly welcomed by locals that start their search for their new home online. Instead of getting in the car and driving to a dozen homes on a Saturday with an Agent, now locals will be able to narrow their home purchase focus rather quickly!

And, from what Buzz has heard about this new site, it’s going to be highly intuitive in terms of navigation (ease of use) and is being built by Khris Woodring, a perfectionist that doesn’t want to launch, and has delayed the initial launch, to make sure the site operates perfectly. According to Kevin, there has been months of behind the scenes research into the site design, functionality and testing. This isn’t just going to be another local flash-in-the-pan FSBO site. This is going to be THE state-of-the-art Baton Rouge Home Listings site to be listed on!

A Site Built For Favorable Google Indexing and Search! It won’t take long for this site to gain traction with locals and with Google because Google loves to index “Video” for search, which is one reason why Google owns YouTube! Home listings which include indexable video will receive better attention in the search engines.

http://www.batonrougerealestatebuzz.com/ – The Importance of Greater Baton Rouge Curb Appeal!

Baton Rouge Real Estate Agent, Glenda Daughety, had published a helpful article on the importance of Curb Appeal with some tips on how to improve your curb appeal to sell that home. Read her entire article here: The Importance of Curb Appeal. Buzz is providing a couple of snippets from her article:

“Most potential homebuyers make a decision about a house within the first 30 seconds. For example, simply driving by a well-kept single family home for sale in the Baton Rouge, Prairieville, Denham Springs Louisiana areas is often enough to cause people to pull over and make an immediate call to their realtor. That’s because an inviting exterior promises an inviting interior.”

Tips To Look Out For

“Look out for:

Visible mold or mildew on the house, roof, or sidewalks
Outdated exteriors
Yard clutter
Dirty gutters, siding, or windows
Chipped paint
How your home appears at dusk or even at night
Overgrowth in the yard or on the sidewalks
Dead plants or leaf piles
Overly personalized doormats”

http://www.batonrougerealestateminute.com/ – Baton Rouge Real Estate Minute Video Updates: August 2010 Update!

http://www.batonrougerealestatebuzz.com/ – This Is Why Baton Rouge Real Estate Agents Should Implement Video Marketing: Coldwell Banker’s Success!

Michael Fisher, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Coldwell Banker, talks to SEO-PR President Greg Jarboe about the success of Coldwell Banker’s viral marketing campaigns. Fisher is very happy with their YouTube channel, and how it energized their network by showcasing what video can do for them. Fisher says that the future of real estate will involve video because it’s fairly simple to get started and to organize the campaign. Fisher gives as an example of a successful video campaign the test case of a woman from Salem MA, who has a bubbly personality and is perfect for video. Her onscreen talking about the property not only makes the property feel better, but also gives the potential consumer the essence of what she is going to be like and how she can help market her property. She also has a great video bumper that she uses for all her video listings. Its a coffee mug on the beach on Boston’s north shore with seagulls in the background, she picks up the mug takes a spit and puts it back down, all you see is the mug with a little lip mark on it, and she says ‘That’s why I live in New England’. Videos like that get the viewer excited about moving to the area, and when she comes in and tells you about the property, you are sold 10 seconds into the video. The link to this post is here!
