Agents in vendor videos: a winning strategy

Vendor-funded property videos have become a cornerstone of real estate marketing, especially across social media.

They’re powerful tools for showcasing homes, building excitement, and reaching buyers where they spend their time.

Yet despite their growing importance, many agents remain hesitant to appear on camera—particularly when the vendor is footing the bill.

The concern is understandable: no one wants to look self-promotional. But the reality is clear—when agents feature briefly in vendor videos, the results for both sellers and vendors improve.

Property videos consistently perform better when they include people.

Faces, expressions, and body language create relatability and trust in ways that static shots of empty rooms simply cannot.

Buyers aren’t just evaluating the property; they’re also subconsciously assessing the credibility of the person representing it.

A short agent introduction—just a few seconds—can establish connection and confidence without distracting from the home itself.

This presence doesn’t need to dominate the video.

A simple intro, a voice-over highlighting key features, and a sign-off or call to action are often enough to elevate the content.

The key point is that agent visibility isn’t about personal branding—it’s about vendor outcomes.

Videos that feel more human hold attention longer, generate more clicks, and create the emotional hook that drives enquiry.

When agents are visible, the property stands out, and the vendor benefits directly.

Of course, not every agent feels comfortable on camera.

That’s where support comes in.

Coaching, teleprompters, and short scripted takes can make the process easy and natural.

Perfection isn’t required—authenticity is.

A calm, confident introduction is all it takes to make the rest of the video more effective.

The goal isn’t to turn agents into presenters; it’s to make property marketing more compelling, so homes attract more attention and vendors achieve better results.

Three quick takeaways:

• Keep it minimal: a short intro, outro, and optional voice-over enhance impact without overshadowing the property.
• Clarify intent: help vendors understand that agent visibility is designed to sell the home, not promote the agent.
• Invest in confidence: coaching and simple tools make agents appear natural and credible on camera.
