In a world of infinite scrolling and declining attention spans, you have less than three seconds to stop a potential buyer's thumb. In 2026, the most effective marketing isn't just about showing a home—it’s about delivering high-density information in a format that buyers actually enjoy.
This is why RCRdigital is introducing the 30-Second Social Reel. These vertical videos are engineered to highlight a home's best features before the viewer loses interest, providing a "high-density punch" that static photos alone can't match.
Why 30 Seconds is the Sweet Spot
Recent data suggests that while users may browse for minutes, they decide to engage within seconds. A 30-second reel fits perfectly into the "gaps" of a buyer's day—accessible during a coffee break or a quick scroll between meetings. It respects the viewer's time while delivering a cinematic walkthrough of your listing's "hero" features.
Platform-Ready Marketing
Our reels are shot and edited specifically for the vertical 9:16 format favored by Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. For just a $50 add-on to your photo package, you gain a powerful asset that is 67% more likely to be shared on social media than a standard listing post.
