RexNet.tv is a real estate video website created by Norvell Rose, a Realtor from Virginia Beach, VA. The videos I sampled were well produced. The user friendly video player features include Map (via Mapquest), Track (get alerts when listing changes), Rate (feedback), Email (video link), Save, and Print. A short preroll ad (5 seconds) does not disturb the viewing experience, which runs 2-3 minutes.
RexNetTV appears to be a relatively new website and only has video of properties in Virginia. But Norvell, who says he is a top producing agent with a previous career in broadcasting, says he intends to build a network of local affiliates across the US and Canada. Good luck Norvell.
One thing I’ve recently noticed about video —when you see a person walking through a room in a video (wideshot), it provides a scale to the room, something I feel is lacking in still photos and slideshows. A pleasant and informative voiceover also seems to be a worthwhile quality of video marketing of homes on the internet, which is growing more video focused, thanks to sites like YouTube. No one wants to read much anymore.
