(1888PressRelease)
April 20, 2006 - Homevues.com today announced the introduction of a new real estate marketing service aimed at maximizing the online exposure of residential and commercial properties. The service enables Real estate professionals and builders to feature up to thirty JPEG images with custom descriptions per listing in a unique SHOWCASE (http://www.homevues.com/propertygallery). In addition to images, Homevues also accepts streaming videos which can be uploaded directly. Once a Showcase account has been created, any number of property types and listings can be uploaded to create a unique URL which can be linked to; placed in advertising; flyers; yard signs; e-mail, etc.
“Each day more home buyers are using the Internet to do research and locate potential properties and the single most important feature they look for is the availability of images…lots of images”, said Adrian Da Silva, President of Homevues.com. “In today’s changing market real estate professionals are focusing on new ways to attract buyers’ attention and Homevues makes that possible” he added.
Each Showcase displays thumbnails which activate a slide show with background music when clicked on. Slides can each feature a lengthy description and can be further enlarged for more detail. Other menu options include the ability to pan images that exceed the screen viewing size and adjust volume levels of sound and background music.
Once a Showcase is activated, the URL is exclusive to whoever created it and therefore can be used in all marketing efforts as long as the account remains in good standing. In addition, Homevues purposely designed the Showcase so that it is not possible to jump to other showcases unless the URL is known by the viewer.
Homevues (http://www.homevues.com) was created by Adrian Da Silva who has more than twenty years of combined national and international real estate experience. “Long before digital cameras and the Internet were created I used video to sell Florida properties to investors in South American and Australia with much success. It is true that a picture is worth a thousand words’ and I feel that a Homevues Showcase can contribute not only to sales but to listing volume as well”, he said.
Homevues is a division of Global Video Technology, LLC (http://www.globalvideotech.com) which offers video solutions including video email, video conferencing and more.
