50 Southern Ave | Essex, Massachusetts real estate & homes
http://www.RuthPino.com - Located on Cape Ann, the historic village of Essex flourished for three centuries as a shipbuilding center. Today it is famous for its many antique shops, fine restaurants and New England charm that are sought out by visitors from all over the globe.
50 Southern Avenue was build in 1785 by William Gilbert—a blacksmith—and includes a barn, which had been built on the property some 100 years earlier. Gilbert built a traditional 4-over-4 Cape-style house on a foundation of massive granite blocks. A major change was made to the home in the mid-1800s when a carriage house and tack room were added between the original barn and the house, connecting the two.
Most of the home's original features remain, including wide pine flooring, original beams, fireplaces and trim. Over the last 16 years, the current owners (only the fifth family since the house was built), have made extensive enhancements: creating a contemporary kitchen with breakfast room and larder; new bathrooms; a spectacular loft bedroom as part of a stunning master suite in what once was the carriage house. The current owners also have done all of the "hidden" structural and systems work in both the house and the original barn. And they recaptured and expanded the lovely perennial gardens installed in the early 1930s by a Boston family (the Morelands—the third owners) who originally bought the property for a summer residence.
The current owners' goal has been to preserve the unique qualities and ambience of this property to reflect the contributions of earlier generations, while providing the very best of contemporary living for a discerning 21st century family. This home succeeds on every point.

Make videos of small businesses and events to show off your community expertise!
Agent Applause, a terrific website which highlights creating or inspirational marketing ideas by Realtors throughout the country. A great place to go for new ideas or "out of the box" marketing ideas for real estate! Check it out at AgentApplause.com
Recently, one of my clients, Rudy Mayer, was featured due to his use of video, not just with property tours (he does those for every listing), but also to highlight his market area and why someone might want to consider moving to the Southern New Hampshire area.
As Agent Applause mentions, these videos are NOT selling real estate, and basically NOT selling the realtor! In fact, the only mention of the Realtor is a logo in the corner and you wouldn't know it was done by an agent until the very end. This "Slice of Life in New Hampshire" series is meant as a resource for new residents and buyers in the community, and as a way for the agent to showcase their knowledge of these communities.
It does keep people on his site for a long time watching videos and learning about the area. All of the videos are optimized for search engines, so they regularly pop up on Google searches.
A perfect example of how these types of videos can generate business:
A buyer was living in Los Angeles and searching for homes in Southern New Hampshire over the internet. He found a nice home in the small town of Hollis, NH. When he went to find out about this small community, he came up short. It's just a small town, no businesses per se, just a residential community. BUT... he found this video on Rudy Mayer's website showing what Hollis was like.
Guess who he chose to buy a house from? (For over $1M by the way....)
There are many, many ways of incorporating video into your real estate marketing. Lack of creativity is really the only obstacle!

How do you make a video tour of vacant land being sold for development?
Doing a virtual or video tour of 271 acres of undeveloped land can be a challenge - even impossible!
Ofe Polack, a top REALTOR with Coldwell Banker of Manchester, New Hampshire decided to do a video profile of the community, as a way to entice potential developers to come to the area. An 87 lot cluster development located in New Hampshire's capital city, Concord, it presented a challenge as there is nothing to take pictures of except trees, ponds and land! But the city of Concord is still a big draw for new business, and even in this recessionary economy, it continues to thrive - something that will be important to a residential builder looking to develop a new housing community in this economy.
Highlighting WHY a builder would want to develop in this community was the focus of this video tour!
Real estate video tours don't necessarily always have to be about house tours!

A different application for real estate video: A closing gift for a valued client!
This buyer has just sold her home in Marblehead, Massachusetts.
Her biggest regret in moving was leaving behind her beloved garden, which she cultivated for many, many years. Every plant and tree was put there for a purpose, and all bring back memories.
The listing agent had us do a video tour of her garden for her as a closing gift. She wrote and narrated it, and it's being put on several DVDs for their personal memories, and to give to her kids.
There are MANY uses for video in real estate - this is just another one. Think outside the box!
