The Power of YouTube in Real Estate
Jeremy’s YouTube success really coincided with the 2020 pandemic, a period that saw many turning to video creation due to the limitations on physical movement.

Leveraging Long-Form VS Short-Form Content
Central to Jeremy's YouTube success is his emphasis on long-form content. He believes that this format has been more effective in building trust with his audience compared to short-form videos. "It's a lot harder to create trust in 30 to 60 seconds," Jeremy explains. His focus is on delivering valuable content that educates his audience on critical aspects of real estate and finance. This approach not only engages viewers but also establishes Jeremy as a trusted authority in his field.
YouTube vs Other Social Media
While Jeremy acknowledges the role of other social media platforms, he credits YouTube as the primary source of his leads, contributing to about 80% of his business. He points out the importance of knowing where to focus one's efforts. "I'm a big believer in sticking to what you know best," he says, emphasizing the effectiveness of YouTube over other platforms like TikTok for his specific goals.
Content That Converts
Jeremy’s content strategy is not just about creating engaging videos; it's about producing content that translates into real business. He advises on focusing on content that "actually gets me business." This involves educating the audience on financial fundamentals and making informed choices in the real estate market. By positioning himself as more than just a real estate agent, but as a financial educator, Jeremy adds significant value to his audience, encouraging them to engage with his services.
Video Tours
One of Jeremy’s innovative content approaches involves property tours. He explains how simple it can be, "You can do that on your phone, walk around a property, and then market it." He plans to dedicate a channel exclusively for video tours, underscoring his belief in targeted, purpose-driven content.
The Business Behind the Camera
A critical aspect of Jeremy's strategy is understanding the economics and logistics of video production. He talks about hiring videographers and the cost-effectiveness of outsourcing certain aspects of the content creation process. This allows him to focus on his core competencies – real estate sales and client interaction.
A common place to find a freelance video editor is fiverr.com or UpWork.com
