Video Reviews: Overview and Set Up
Updated over a week ago

What is a video review?

A video review is a short video of a vendor or buyer describing their experience with a particular agent during a property transaction. The vendor or buyer should talk about the character and skills the agent displayed in the lead up, during and possibly after the transaction has occurred.

Video reviews are added along with your written RMA reviews, they add more authenticity and personality!

Here are some real live video reviews on RateMyAgent right now!

Requirements for video reviews:

  • A video review must be posted alongside a written review. You cannot post a video review as the only review from a client. 

  • You must have Starter subscription or above

  • You must have gained permission from their client that the video can be published on RMA and anywhere else the video may be shared to (eg Social Media)
