Zipvo Video Listings For Real Estate

Frank Gruber

If you are selling your home or condo you probably know that photos and virtual tours are extremely important to the presentation of your prized piece of real estate. A good virtual tour or photo set can make all the difference as buyers scour the Internet looking for a place to call home. Zipvo, a Boston-based startup, recently launched into beta to take this scenario to the next level with full video real estate listings. What do I mean? Think YouTube meets real estate listings.

Zipvo is a FREE video real estate listing site. Similar to HotSwap a company that I previously highlighted that does automobile video listings, Zipvo has created a platform that makes it easy for anyone to upload a home video tour. Zipvo offers the ability to create a listing page with a video which can be shared or saved. Videos are embeddable, as well, which make your real estate listing a little more viral. Zipvo's free business model could end up being disruptive to pay-to-post real estate services which tend to charge customers extra to post video and virtual tours.
