Mga pangunahing gamit: paano ginagamit ng mga propesyonal sa real estate ang HeyGen

Higit pa sa isang video tool ang HeyGen. Isa itong presence engine para sa mga ahente, broker, at property manager na nakakakuha ng negosyo sa pamamagitan ng tiwala at mataas na visibility.

Ang kalagayan ng real estate marketing

Ang puwang na iyon ang mismong oportunidad. (NAR 2025 Technology Survey)

Hindi na opsyonal ang video. Ito ang pundasyon ng paraan ng mga buyer mag-research, pumili, at magtiwala sa ahenteng unang tatawagan nila.

Ang hamon

• Ang tradisyonal na paggawa ng video ay nagkakahalaga ng $500 hanggang $2,000 o higit pa bawat listing, na hindi kayang panindigan kapag maraming listing ang kailangang gawin.
• Karamihan sa mga ahente ay nagsasabing oras at gastos ang pangunahing hadlang nila sa paggawa ng tuloy-tuloy na mga video.
• Ang mga multilingguwal na merkado ay nangangailangan ng isinaling content na karamihan sa mga ahente ay hindi kayang gawin nang abot-kaya.
• 46% ng mga REALTOR ay gumagamit na ng AI-generated na content. 32% ay hindi pa nagsisimula. Ang puwang na iyon ang oportunidad (NAR 2025 Technology Report).

Ano ang binubuksan ng AI video

• Bilis.Mula sa multi-camera na setup sa sala, natapos ni Scott Henninger ang isang video sa loob lamang ng wala pang dalawang oras.
• Pagtipid sa gastos. Palitan ang isang $2,000 na workflow ng videographer gamit ang isang HeyGen subscription na mas mababa sa $50 bawat buwan.
• Sukat.Sabay-sabay gumawa ng maraming content para sa iba’t ibang listing, merkado, o wika.
• Pagkakapare-pareho.Panatilihin ang regular na presensya ng video sa bawat channel nang hindi nauubos ang iyong lakas.
• Lokalisasyon. Maglingkod sa mga komunidad ng mamimiling nagsasalita ng Spanish, Mandarin, Vietnamese, at iba pang wika sa kanilang sariling wika gamit lang ang isang click.

Paggawa ng iyong unang AI na video

Panimula

Bago ka pa lang sa video o unang beses mong ginagamit ang HeyGen? Sa seksyong ito, gagabayan ka namin sa bawat hakbang para makagawa ka agad ng mga de-kalidad na video.

Bago mo pindutin ang "Create," linawin muna ang layunin mo. Tanungin ang sarili mo:

• Layunin: Ano ang gusto mong makamit ng video na ito? Halimbawa: makakuha ng mga tanong mula sa mga buyer, palawakin ang pagkakakilala sa iyo sa iyong network, alagaan ang mga dati mong kliyente, at manalo sa isang listing presentation.
• Audience:Kanino ka nakikipag-usap? Mga halimbawa: mga first-time buyer, mga nagbebenta na lilipat sa mas malaking bahay, mga kliyenteng investor, isang multilingguwal na komunidad.
• Distribusyon:Saan ilalagay o ipapakita ang video na ito? Halimbawa: Instagram Reels, iyong listing page, email newsletter, YouTube.
• Hook: Ano ang makakahatak ng atensyon sa unang ilang segundo?

Mabilisang tip

Kailangan mo ba ng pangalawang opinyon? Magtanong kay ChatGPT o Claude:

"Gumagawa ako ng real estate video para sa [property type/market]. Ang layunin ko ay [goal]. Ang audience ko ay [audience]. Ang hook ko ay [hook]. Maaari ka bang magmungkahi ng mga paraan para mas maging kapana-panabik ito?"

Hakbang 1: I-set up ang iyong HeyGen workspace para sa malakihang paggamit

Para sa mga solo na real estate agent, ang iyong brand ay ang iyong mukha. Pinipili ng mga buyer at seller ang mga agent na pinagkakatiwalaan nila, at ang iyong AI avatar ang paraan para palagi kang present sa bawat video nang hindi kailangang mag-shoot sa tuwing gagawa ka ng content.

Bago ka gumawa ng iyong unang video, ihanda muna ang dalawang bagay:

• Ang iyong digital twin. Ito ang pinakamahalagang asset mo sa HeyGen. Isang 15-segundong recording lang ang kailangan para makagawa ng avatar na kamukha at kapareho ng boses mo. Maaari kang tumalon na agad sa Step 2 para gawin muna ito kung gusto mo.
• Ang Iyong Brand Kit. Idagdag ang mga kulay, logo, at font ng iyong brokerage para awtomatikong nakaayon sa brand ang bawat video. I-paste ang URL ng website ng iyong brokerage para awtomatikong ma-import ang iyong brand style, o i-upload nang mano-mano ang mga asset.

Pro tip

Ang iyong digital twin ang iyong brand. Mas magiging natural at may ekspresyon ang iyong pagre-record, mas totoo at mas makikita sa iyong avatar ang tunay mong personalidad sa screen.

Hakbang 2: Perpektuhin ang iyong digital twin

Sa real estate, ang mukha at pagkakakilanlan mo ang mismong produkto mo. Pumipili ang mga buyer at seller ng mga ahenteng pinagkakatiwalaan nila, at ang digital twin mo ang paraan para ma-build ang tiwalang ’yan sa mas malawak na scale—lumalabas ka sa bawat video na mukhang at tunog ikaw pa rin, nang hindi kailangang mag-shoot sa tuwing gagawa ng content.

Para sa karamihan ng real estate agents, ang paglikha ng digital twin ang inirerekomendang paraan. 15 segundo lang ang kailangan para mag-record at makakagawa na ito ng makatotohanang avatar na kumukuha ng tunay mong galaw, kilos, at mga ekspresyon.

Paano gumawa ng iyong digital twin

Mag-record ng 15-segundong video ng sarili mo: iyon lang ang kailangan ni Avatar V para matutunan ang natatangi mong galaw at paraan ng pag-express. Maikli lang ang recording, pero direkta nitong naaapektuhan ang kalidad ng resulta base sa kalidad ng effort na ilalagay mo.

Mga pinakamainam na gawi para sa iyong pagre-record:

• Mag-record gamit ang smartphone sa cinematic mode o 4K. Malaking pagkakaiba ang nagagawa ng magandang camera sa itsura ng video.
• Gumamit ng simple at malinis na background na may natural na ilaw: mas mainam ang neutral na pader kaysa magulong opisina.
• Maging ekspresibo: ang enerhiyang ibinibigay mo ay siya ring enerhiyang babalik sa’yo. Magsalita at kumilos nang natural, na para bang kaharap mo ang isang kliyente.
• Iwasang takpan ang iyong mukha, magsuot ng malalaking palamuti, o gumawa ng biglaang malalaking kilos.
• Magsuot ng kasuotang gusto mong maiugnay sa iyong brand: gagayahin ng iyong avatar ang hitsurang iyon sa bawat video na gagawin mo.

Mahalagang tip

Gamitin ang HeyGen's Generating Looks na feature para palitan ang backdrop, damit, o pose ng iyong digital twin gamit lang ang text prompt. Ilagay ang sarili mo sa isang luxury property, isang kilalang lugar sa inyong neighborhood, o sa opisina ng iyong brokerage nang hindi umaalis sa iyong desk.

Hindi ka pa handang mag-record?

Pwede kang magsimula gamit ang stock avatar mula sa library ng HeyGen, isang photo avatar na ginawa mula sa isang headshot lang, o isang fully generated avatar mula sa text prompt. Magandang panimulang punto ang mga ito, pero para sa real estate, inirerekomenda naming bumalik ka para gawin ang iyong digital twin sa lalong madaling panahon. Iyon ang kaibahan ng generic lang na video presence kumpara sa isang talagang nakakapagpatibay ng tiwala.

Tip na partikular sa real estate

I-record ang iyong training video suot ang damit na gusto mong maiugnay sa iyong brand, kung ito man ay business professional o business casual. Tutularan ng iyong avatar ang hitsurang iyon sa bawat video na gagawin mo.

Mahuhusay na gawi: paglikha ng de-kalidad na custom na AI na boses

Mayroong napakalaking library ang HeyGen ng mga stock na AI-generated na boses sa mahigit 175 na wika, diyalekto, at emosyonal na tono, pero minsan ang custom na voice clone na eksaktong katunog mo ang mas makapangyarihang opsyon para makabuo ng tiwala sa mga kliyente sa real estate.

Para sa pinakamagandang kalidad ng boses, magsimula sa malinaw at malakas na source audio. Narito kung paano makakakuha ng mahusay na recording:

• Gumamit ng de-kalidad na mikropono o smartphone at ilapit ito nang mga 6–8" mula sa iyong bibig

• Mag-record sa isang tahimik na lugar na walang ingay

• Magsalita nang malinaw na may natural na paghinto at bahagyang pagpapahayag ng emosyon

• Mag-upload ng maraming sample na may iba’t ibang emosyonal na tono para sa mas maraming paraan ng paggamit (para sa HeyGen Custom Voice Clones lamang)

Mga pinakamahuhusay na gawi: mag-prompt na parang eksperto

Ang prompting ay ang pagsasanay ng maingat na pagbuo at paulit-ulit na pag-edit ng mga tekstong tagubilin (na tinatawag na prompts) na ginagamit para gabayan ang mga AI tool sa paglikha ng bagong content mula sa simula, gaya ng mga larawan, galaw, o audio.

Ang prompting ay isang makapangyarihang kasanayan para sa sinumang AI creator. Kapag pinagsama sa HeyGen, nagbubukas ang prompting ng napakaraming paraan para gumawa ng mga high-impact na video kung saan ang iyong imahinasyon lang ang tanging limitasyon! Ihanda ang sarili sa pag-eeksperimento at paulit-ulit na paghasa.

Mga pinakamahuhusay na gawi sa pagpo-prompt

Maging tiyak

Mas malinaw na maipapantay ng AI sa gusto mong mangyari ang resulta kapag mas malinaw mong inilalarawan ang gusto mo (tono, itsura, galaw, emosyon).

Magsimula sa malinaw na balangkas

Gumamit ng pare-parehong istruktura: ano, sino, saan, paano. Nalalapat ito sa mga visual, tono ng boses, at direksyon ng galaw.

Isama ang konteksto at layunin

Ipaalam sa AI ang layunin: Para ba ito sa product demo? Isang social ad? Isang tutorial? Nakakatulong ang konteksto para maangkop nang husto ang magiging resulta.

Gumamit ng masusing paglalarawan sa wika

Gumamit ng mga pang-uri na nagpapahayag ng damdamin, estilo, o linaw (hal., “kumpiyansa,” “minimalist,” “mataas ang enerhiya,” “kalma ang pacing”).

Ulitin at pinuhin

Huwag kang makuntento sa unang subok mo. Kahit maliliit na pagbabago sa prompt ay puwedeng magdulot ng napakalaking pagbuti ng resulta sa lahat ng uri ng media!

Hakbang 3: Piliin ang iyong panimulang punto

Kapag binuksan mo ang HeyGen bilang isang real estate agent, makikita mo sa iyong homepage ang tatlong video format na espesyal na ginawa para sa trabaho mo. Bawat isa ay isang shortcut papunta sa isang tapos na, handa-nang-i-publish na video. Kapag pumili ka ng format, hihingan ka agad na pumili ng avatar at boses mo, para manatiling on-brand ang bawat video mula sa unang hakbang.

Gumawa ng iyong video

I-click ang "Create Video" mula sa iyong dashboard, o pumili ng isa sa tatlong format tiles direkta mula sa iyong home screen. Bawat format ay naka-pre-configure na para sa real estate: naka-load na ang iyong digital twin, boses, at brand kit.

Bawat path ay may tatlong hakbang: isulat at i-review ang iyong script, pakinggan ang voice delivery bago pa man may mai-film, tapos piliin ang editing style, aspect ratio, at captions. I-click ang "Create video" at irerender ito ng HeyGen sa background. Makakatanggap ka ng email kapag handa na ito.

Maaaring piliin ng mga real estate agent na gustong gumawa ng landscape o YouTube-length na content ang Landscape sa Aspect Ratio toggle sa Format step. Ang Portrait ang default para sa lahat ng tatlong format at handa na itong gamitin kaagad para sa social.

Pro tip: Laging suriin muna ang script bago lumipat sa susunod na hakbang. Tiyaking tama ang address ng property, presyo, at mga detalye ng neighborhood. Mas mahalaga ang katumpakan sa real estate video kaysa sa halos anumang ibang uri ng content.

Pagpo-prompt para sa landscape at mas mahahabang video

Ang mga real estate format ay naka-default sa portrait, maikling video output. Kung kailangan mo ng landscape o mas mahahabang YouTube-style na video, sabihin mo ito nang malinaw sa iyong prompt. Maaaring baguhin ng mga user ang mga default sa ganitong paraan.

Mga halimbawa ng prompt na maaari mong kopyahin:

Para sa landscape/pahalang (YouTube, mga embed sa website, email):

"Create a landscape market update video for [Neighborhood] in 16:9 format. Cover median sale price, days on market, and what it means for sellers this month. Tone: confident and local. CTA: DM me for a free home valuation."

For long-form YouTube content:

"Create a YouTube video about relocating to [City]. Make it 3 to 5 minutes long, covering cost of living, top neighborhoods, schools, and what buyers are surprised by. Tone: warm and informative. End with a CTA to subscribe and book a call."

For landscape and long-form combined:

"Create a 16:9 YouTube listing video for [Address]. 2 to 3 minutes. Walk through the property highlights, neighborhood, and lifestyle. Keep it conversational and personal. End with a showing CTA."

Pro tip: For YouTube content, always specify the length in your prompt. Saying "3 to 5 minutes" or "YouTube-length" signals that this is long-form content and changes how the script and pacing are structured.

Step 4: Create and polish your scenes in AI Studio

Now it's time to bring your video to life inside HeyGen's AI Studio. Design your video with clarity and flow in mind.

Whether you're building a video from scratch or refining a Video Agent draft, AI Studio is where you control every detail before publishing.

Build your scenes

• Design your scenes in minutes using the Brand Kit or templates you set up in Step 1.
• Reinforce your message with on-screen text, like price, address, or a CTA, and trigger them to appear with animation.
• Browse HeyGen's stock media library for high-quality b-roll, or generate cinematic b-roll from a text prompt using AI video models (Sora 2 / Veo 3.1) built directly into AI Studio.
• Use Avatar Shots to place your avatar in cinematic, film-quality scenes, ideal for premium listing videos or luxury brand content.
• Use premium scene transitions to give your video a smooth, professional polish.
• Add and customize captions to make your videos more engaging and accessible.
• Use Auto Edit to automatically remove filler words, pauses, or unwanted takes from any footage you bring in.

Refine a Video Agent draft

• Edit the script line by line. Check that the property address, price, neighborhood name, and any key details are accurate.
• Swap or generate b-roll. Replace any scene with a property photo, stock footage, or AI-generated b-roll from a text prompt.
• Adjust captions and text overlays. Make sure on-screen text matches your brand style and is easy to read.
• Fine-tune your avatar's delivery. Use Voice director to adjust tone and pacing, or Pauses and pronunciation to fix any names or addresses that sound off.

Pro tip

For listing videos, try layering your avatar introduction over a property photo or AI-generated exterior b-roll as the background scene. It gives buyers an immediate visual anchor before they have even seen the photos on the MLS. For multilingual content, use the multilingual player to bundle all translated versions into one share link with a dropdown selector.

Best practices: write quality scripts

You can write or edit scripts from scratch using HeyGen's built-in AI Script Writer (type "/" in the script panel to open Quick Commands and choose Script Writer), or draft outside HeyGen with ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini and paste it in.

If you're writing or refining a script with AI, these steps help you get a strong result fast:

• Step 1: Start with a clear prompt. Tell the AI what kind of video you're making (listing video, market update, buyer guide), who it's for, the goal, and the tone.
• Step 2: Add your key details. Include the property address, key features, price, neighborhood, days on market, or whatever data points are central.
• Step 3: Ask for the right structure. Make sure the script is spoken, easy to read, and conversational, not written like a listing description.
• Step 4: Review and refine. Preview the video, then edit the script directly in the timeline. Refine based on what you see and hear.

Sample AI revision prompts:

• "Make this sound more confident and exciting."
• "Add a stronger opening hook."
• "Simplify the ending and make the CTA more actionable."
• "Give me a 30-second version focused on the top 3 features."

Pro tip: Use AI as your co-writer, not your replacement. You bring the local expertise and accuracy, AI brings the speed.

Best practices: adjust pronunciation, emotions, and intonations

Do you need your avatar to sound just right? Real estate scripts include street names, neighborhood names, and local landmarks that AI may mispronounce. HeyGen gives you powerful tools to fine-tune voiceovers for natural, accurate delivery.

Strategies to scale your communication impact

Whether you're growing your sphere, testing what converts, or reaching new buyer communities, these advanced tools help real estate professionals scale with precision.

Optimize and iterate like a pro

Create multiple versions of your listing hook, CTA, or intro and compare results.

• Duplicate scenes to test different property highlights or angles.
• Swap avatars or voices to see which tone buyers respond to.
• Measure watch time, clicks, and inquiry rates to keep what works.

Go global with translation

Learn how to translate and localize your videos into 175+ languages and dialects, no dubbing or voice actors required.

Use HeyGen’s Brand Voice feature to maintain consistency in translated videos by customizing how certain words are handled, like brokerage name pronunciation or neighborhood names.

Enterprise and Team plan users can also make edits directly to translated scripts by using our Proofread feature.

Publish with the multilingual player. It provides one share link with a language dropdown for every rendered translation in the folder.

Pro tip

Create your listing video once in English, then generate Spanish, Mandarin, and Vietnamese versions in minutes. Post all three with a single caption: "Interested? Watch in your language below."

Personalize at scale

Add a personal touch to your buyer follow-ups, seller outreach, or sphere campaigns with Personalized Videos. By using dynamic elements, like the recipient's name, neighborhood, or price range, you create a unique, more engaging experience for each contact.

Pair it with your CRM integrations on HubSpot, Zapier, Make, and Clay for a fully automated video outreach workflow, and use Batch Mode to produce hundreds of personalized videos at once from a spreadsheet.

Make concepts visual

Turn abstract ideas into clear, memorable visuals.

• Motion designer creates animated titles, diagrams, and social hooks from prompts. Great for processes, frameworks, and definitions (uses generative credits).
• Stock media + screens: Reinforce learning with examples, B‑roll, or slide overlays.

Turn one video into eight pieces of content

Most real estate creators don't just need more ideas. They need better systems. Because once you build the right system, consistency becomes a whole lot easier.

The most powerful workflow in real estate content right now isn't filming more. It's getting more value from every video you already made. Here's how to turn one listing walkthrough into eight pieces of content inside HeyGen, without recording again.

1 listing walkthrough becomes 1 long-form video + 3 shorts + 1 hook variation + 1 translated clip + 1 AI avatar video + 1 social post = 8 pieces of content

And that is nowhere near the limit. The goal isn't to create more content by working harder. It's to build a system that multiplies the value of every video you already make.

Use case #1: Market updates

Perfect for:

Agents building a sphere of influence, team leaders staying top-of-mind with past clients, and brokerages positioning their brand as the local market authority.

The opportunity

The agents who win referrals are the ones who stay top-of-mind between transactions. A weekly or monthly market update video is the highest-leverage way to do that. Most agents summarize market data in a PDF or a long caption. A 90-second video of your avatar delivering the same insights creates a fundamentally different level of connection, and it works on every major platform.

Top features:

• Digital Twin / Avatar V to deliver updates as yourself
• PPT/PDF to Video to convert your existing market data slides automatically
• AI Clipping to extract the most shareable moments for social clips
• Video Podcast to generate a multi-avatar market discussion from your data report
• Translate Videos to publish in multiple languages for multilingual farm areas
• Batch Mode to produce neighborhood-specific versions of the same update template with different variables

Customer story

Jim McDonner entered real estate after retiring from the U.S. Navy and found himself competing against more than 4,000 licensed agents in Northwest Arkansas, one of the country's fastest-growing markets, with roughly 40 new residents arriving every day.

Before HeyGen, creating a single video could consume most of a day. Even after hiring a professional videographer to produce a series of 12 videos, he was only publishing one or two a week and often skipping weeks entirely.

"It wasn't very consistent. It's no wonder my channel didn't get any traction."

After completing an AI certification course, Jim built a workflow that is now almost entirely automated. He uses Manus to research market trends, ChatGPT to draft scripts, Gamma to build buyer and relocation guides, and HeyGen's Video Agent to produce polished videos using his brand assets.

"I can spend three, four hours max on a Monday morning and create a whole week's worth of videos and pre-schedule them."

His educational approach has steadily shifted his audience toward buyers aged 25 to 45. One educational listing campaign helped sell a $650,000 property in just seven days. Another video attracted relocation buyers from Memphis, and a campaign targeting California generated inquiries from buyers planning to move to Northwest Arkansas.

"I wouldn't have reached anywhere near the audience that I've reached."

5 videos per week, up from 1 to 2 | 3 to 4 hours to create a full week of content | 1,000+ YouTube subscribers

Use case #2: Hosted Home Tour

Perfect for:

Individual agents, team leads, and anyone who wants their personal presence front and center in every listing video. Especially powerful for agents building a recognizable local brand on social media.

The opportunity

A hosted home tour puts you in the frame as the narrator, walking buyers through the property as if you were there in person. With HeyGen, your digital twin hosts the tour, giving buyers a personal introduction from you without requiring you to film at every listing.

Best practices:

• Lead with your personality. The hosted format works because buyers feel like they're meeting you. Keep the tone warm, conversational, and personal.
• Keep your avatar present throughout. Use picture-in-picture to keep your digital twin visible as the host while property photos and b-roll fill the background.
• Script it like a walkthrough, not a spec sheet. Guide buyers room by room, leading with how each space feels before listing the features.
• Keep it under 90 seconds for social. For YouTube or your website, 2 to 3 minutes is fine if the content earns it.
• Publish consistently. The agents who win on social aren't the ones with the best single video. They're the ones who show up every week.

Top features:

• Your digital twin as the on-screen host
• Picture-in-picture layout: your avatar narrating over property photos and b-roll
• Generating Looks: place your digital twin in a backdrop that matches the property style
• Translate Videos: one hosted tour, 175+ language versions
• Captions: essential for silent autoplay on social

Customer story

Craig Veroni is a real estate agent in Vancouver, British Columbia, covering North Vancouver, West Vancouver, and the city itself. Before real estate, he spent more than a decade as a professional film and television actor, and video had always been at the center of his business.

After a fire and flood forced his family out of their home for nearly a year, his video production came to a complete halt.

"We had been out of our house for about nine months. I couldn't produce any content. I didn't have gear."

When he saw fellow agents using HeyGen to grow new social channels with AI avatars, he was skeptical. Over three days in a small training group, he built his digital twin, refined his workflow, and published his first Instagram Reel.

"I was freaked out because I'm known for my video. I thought people were going to hate this."

The twin worked because it was built from his own high-quality footage, trained on the library of videos he had already filmed, capturing his real looks and mannerisms. He paired it with professionally recorded voice models and upgrades every time a better avatar model ships.

He moved from one video a week to two Reels a day. Within the first week, every post outperformed anything he had done personally. On three separate occasions, complete strangers stopped him in public to say they were subscribers.

"The connection was working."

Use case #3: Listing spotlight

Perfect for:

Individual agents, team leads, listing coordinators, and brokerage marketing teams.

The opportunity

Video listings generate up to 403% more inquiries than photo-only listings, but most agents produce zero video because of cost and time. A listing spotlight with HeyGen delivers a professional, avatar-narrated overview in under 10 minutes, ready before the first showing.

The format: your digital twin narrates the listing as a picture-in-picture presenter, with property photos, text callouts, and AI-generated b-roll filling the frame behind them. Buyers get a personal introduction from you and a visual anchor of the property in a single video.

Best practices:

• Create before the first showing. Have your listing spotlight live before you post to the MLS, buyers doing pre-market research will find it immediately.
• Lead with lifestyle, not specs. Buyers can read the spec sheet. Tell the story: the morning light in the kitchen, the walk to the coffee shop, the neighborhood vibe.
• Use picture-in-picture narration. Keep your avatar visible in the corner as a narrator while property photos and b-roll play in the background. It personalizes the video without blocking the visuals.
• Keep it under 90 seconds. Save longer formats for luxury properties. 60 to 90 seconds is the sweet spot for most listings.
• Generate multilingual versions immediately. If your market has a significant Spanish or other-language buyer community, translate the spotlight right after you publish the English version.

Top features:

• Digital Twin / Avatar V: your digital twin delivers the listing narration as you
• Picture-in-picture layout: your avatar as narrator over property photos and b-roll
• Generating Looks: place your avatar in a backdrop that matches the property's style
• Generative B-roll: generate cinematic property-adjacent visuals from a text prompt
• Translate Videos: one listing spotlight, 175+ language versions
• Captions: essential for silent autoplay on social and listing platforms

Pro tip

Script structure that works: Hook (something surprising or vivid, 10 seconds), Property highlights (3 to 4 features led with lifestyle benefit, 40 seconds), Neighborhood (walkability, schools, amenities, 20 seconds), CTA (one clear next step, 10 seconds).

Customer story

Scott Henninger has helped buyers relocate to northeast Tennessee and southwest Virginia for nearly two decades. Today, his YouTube channel is the engine behind his entire business: 85 to 90 percent of his clients find him through educational videos about moving to the region.

Before HeyGen, every video required Scott to transform his living room into a temporary studio: multiple cameras, a DSLR with teleprompter, careful lighting management. Because everything had to be assembled and taken down each time, he sometimes went months without publishing.

"Anytime I start posting videos again, business takes off." Scott Henninger

After switching to HeyGen, Scott now records his audio, uploads it into HeyGen to generate his avatar video, and finishes the project in Final Cut Pro with graphics, b-roll, and titles.

"From the time I record one, I can have it out in an hour and a half or two hours if I want to."

Since adopting HeyGen, Scott's videos have accumulated roughly 20,000 views. Only one viewer has ever suggested the videos might be AI-generated. Today he closes 25 to 30 transactions a year, with nearly all of those clients discovering him through YouTube before ever scheduling a call.

"Sitting in front of a camera physically doesn't make me a cent. Writing the scripts and presenting them and getting them out, that's where the money comes in."
