Read MoreVideo Has Changed the Game in Real Estate
About a decade ago, only a handful of realtors offered video tours of the properties they represented. Today, nearly all of them do. The rise of the use of video in real estate marketing was born out of the hugely favorable response from prospective home buyers.

Read MorePost-Covid People Still Prefer to Stay Home
During the global pandemic, many people were forced to stay in their homes for weeks or even months at a time. Businesses adjusted by allowing workers to "work from home", participate in online meetings, and encourage customers to purchase online while simplifying and expanding home delivery options.
