FizBer.com, a leading real estate for-sale-by-owner Web site, launches FizBer Video, which showcases videos of for-sale houses to thousands of potential buyers on YouTube. The video tour saves time and money for both buyers and sellers, helping to sell houses faster and easier.
“FizBer Video benefits buyers hugely as well, allowing them to really check out a house before making a trip to the property in person. It saves them time, money and effort. It can also make a home listing more alive and appealing to potential buyers,” said FizBer.com PR manager Julia Foster.
Given the so many powerful tools that can alter images, videos allow many interested buyers to get a glimpse of the actual house and compare it with images posted in the Websites. It’s just a matter of weeks or months before the other players can come up with their own YouTube version.

I’m sure it will be very beneficial for buyers but not sure how many sellers would be able to get one up
To shoot a video tour is not that hard – it should be a 2 to 2-1/2 minute full-motion video with or without voice-over narration and music that showcases a property and all its key selling features. Try and shoot in the mornings or later in the afternoon to avoid that harsh mid-day sun. Then log into your Fizber account, upload the video together with your home pics and you are done – your video will appear on YouTube in a matter of minutes.
