Step 4: Tap the blue + sign on the bottom left to add your video

Step 5: Tap “preview” (this is where you can add text if you want)

Step 6: Select “edit cover” to either add your own cover or select a moment in the video you’d like to use as the cover image

Step 7: Write your caption! This is where you can let people know this home is available or use the video to show off your staging skills and ask people to contact you in your caption.

Per 👏🏼 fec 👏🏼 tion 👏🏼

What you’ll need: Three different videos/angles of a specific room, and don’t be afraid to really zoom in on a feature.

Step 2: Tap the trending sound at the bottom left of your screen

Step 3: Upload your three videos

Step 4: Tap “Next” twice (we’d stay away from adding text here to create a nice clean look)

Step 5: Add or edit your cover image

Step 6: Type your caption with a CTA leading back to  the link in your profile so your audience can learn more about the listing and get in touch with you

Step 7: Add the listing’s location

Step 8: Hit “share”

10 Seconds in Your Area

What you’ll need: If you want to make it easy, go for five videos that each last 2 seconds. Each video should show off a different location in your area. This is a great way for you to show your expertise on the area you serve in. You can also get creative with this concept! Here are some title ideas : 

“Ten seconds in [YOUR AREA]”

“Spend the day in [YOUR AREA]”

“Best cafés in [YOUR AREA]”

How to make it

Step 1: Tap here to view the Reel on Instagram

Step 2: Tap the trending sound at the bottom left of your screen and select “Use audio” or save it for later

Step 3: Tap the blue + sign on the bottom left to add your videos. Make sure you cut them down to around two seconds each to keep the video short. You’ll get better view time this way!

Step 4: Tap “Next” and add your title text and any other text you think is necessary. Hit “Next” again when you’re done.

Step 5: Change or edit your cover image

Step 6: Type up your caption and your CTA

Step 7: Insert location

Step 8: Share and done!

Step 5: Change or edit your cover image

Step 6: Type up your caption with a CTA to rate this space and invite them to view the listing on your website
