10 Rooms and Spaces Buyers Want to See in a Listing Video

A listing video that shows these ten spaces, in this order, answers the questions a buyer has before a showing — and the order matters as much as the list, because it is the order a showing goes. Not every house has all ten; skip what is missing rather than padding with a hallway.

Why this order

Exterior to interior to outdoor to exterior again is how a buyer experiences the house, and a video that follows it feels like a visit rather than a slideshow. The kitchen comes early because it is the room that decides.

The ten, with the move for each

  1. 1The exterior from the street — front-door approach or façade glide.
  2. 2The entry — interior reveal into the main space.
  3. 3The kitchen — dolly to the island, or overhead rise.
  4. 4The living room — truck & pan around the fireplace, or a dolly from the corner.
  5. 5The primary suite — a slow dolly to the window; a tilt down in the bath.
  6. 6The outdoor room — backyard reveal through the doors; pool glide if there is a pool.
  7. 7The garage and parking — a truck along the bays.
  8. 8The basement or bonus room — slide down the stairs.
  9. 9The view, if there is one — view push or balcony pull-back.
  10. 10The exterior again, or the setting from the air — crane or drone reveal.

Questions

What about the secondary bedrooms?

One short clip each in the walk-through, none in the reel. Count them in the caption.

Should the laundry room be in it?

In the walk-through, five seconds if it is a feature; otherwise the caption.
