I think this post by Andrew Mooers | 207.532.6573 is definitely worth resharing.  One of my goals this year is to improve my presence on YouTube and to include more local views of the DC area, inside peeks at Bethesda condos and to double down on FAQs.  What are you putting on your YouTube Channel?  I would love to get more ideas!  YouTube real estate videos, expanding your audience. Just creating a YouTube channel, posting real estate videos will not drive your views and subscribers numbers higher. To have video channel engagement and growth, you have to put yourself out in the audience. Think customer, who you are making these real estate videos for and what you would need as an audience member yourself. What you post, your approach, the thought and time you pour into real estate vide...

Tech Snippets - a new series of short posts showing helpful tools and methods that could easily be missed or overlooked, yet are things that are extremely helpful once you know!Do you know this one?...Toggle Your Folder Views(On a Windows PC) Depending on the content of the folder that you are looking at, there are two view types that you can toggle between to best show you the files. If you are looking at a folder of images, the thumbnails view is very useful. If it is a folder of miscellaneous documents, then the details view is usually preferred. With details view, you can see file size and date/time saved. There are different ways to switch views, but in my opinion, the best way to toggle between the two views is to use the toggle buttons down in the lower right corner of the window...

The Future of Real Estate Technology Over these past decades I have seen a lot of change in real estate tech. I'm always excited to see which ideas take hold in our industry and really revolutionize it. Keeping an eye on progress helps you stay competitive, but it can be fun too. Over the next few years, we are likely to see technology change how agents and consumers explore listings, access market information, and improve transaction security. So, this week I want to share three technologies with you that have the potential to influence and shape the future of how we do real estate in 2023 and beyond. Augmented Reality We've seen a slow spread of virtual reality for years now, but I think that its cousin, augmented reality or "AR", has even greater potential to transform how we experi...

I ran an experiment this week following a webinar my company hosted about AI and ChatGPT. Firstly it was a very good class, webinar with plenty of excellent information. It was also mentioned how this is going to be changing very rapidly.Who knew that you can actually develop your own talking Avatar if you do not like to appear in videos. Yes, videos, with an avatar who speaks and looks just like you, or at the least the you that you have in your minds eye. Much younger and thinner for some like me. So, my experiment, I used ChatGPT to develop some topics for real estate, then took one of those and asked it for an article that was 400 words long on advice for first time home buyers, one of the suggested topics.Feel free to read it hereI then edited it, added some of my contact informati...
