How Do I Make a Just-Sold Video?

A just-sold video is the listing's exterior clip with the result as the title — 'Sold', the neighbourhood, and, with the seller's permission, how quickly or how well — and it markets you to the next seller rather than the house to a buyer. It takes two minutes because the clips already exist.

Which clip

The exterior — a front-door approach or a façade glide — or the room that sold it. One clip, ten seconds, 'Sold' as the title card, your logo on the end card from the brand kit.

What to say

The neighbourhood, the days on market if they are good, multiple offers if there were, and a thank-you to the sellers by first name if they agreed. Price is the seller's business; say 'over asking' only with permission and only if it is true.

Why it matters

Sellers choosing an agent look at recent sales, and a just-sold reel is proof of work. A monthly 'this month's sales' cut of three just-sold clips is a listing-presentation asset.

Questions

Do I need the seller's permission to post a just-sold?

For the fact of the sale, usually not, once it has closed and recorded; for names, price and terms, yes. Ask anyway — it is their house.

Can I reuse the listing video after the sale?

Yes, retitled. Keep the address off the video for exactly this reason.
