# An apartment video tour built from the unit photos you have

Apartment listings sit in long search results where several units in one building can look almost the same, and the floor area is usually smaller than a house, so every frame has to earn its place. Viewers also judge the building as much as the unit: the lobby, a fitness room or a roof deck often decides whether a listing makes the shortlist. Choose a handful of unit photos that show the main room, the kitchen and the best window, add the strongest shared spaces, and ListingVideosAI brings them into a considered sequence with restrained motion, so the apartment reads as one place rather than a scroll of similar rooms.

The video shows the unit and the building as photographed, so amenity photos should show spaces this unit really has access to.

## How to turn apartment photos into one listing video

1. **Pick the unit and building frames** Keep the living area at its widest, the kitchen, the main bedroom and the outlook from the best window, plus the two or three shared spaces residents use most. One video covers one unit and draws on up to 20 photos, so repeated corridor shots can stay out.
2. **Set up the listing and add the photos** Create a listing for the unit and upload the selected frames as JPEG, PNG or WebP files. Uploads are saved, so you can stop after the unit photos and come back for the amenity shots when the building manager sends them.
3. **Check, confirm, then review** Use one video or a credit from a plan, look over the photo set once more and confirm the listing for the video. Expect the finished apartment video 24 to 72 hours after you send the listing, ready for your review before it joins your marketing.

## Apartment photos that hold up in a sequence

An apartment has fewer rooms than a house, so the frames you pick carry more weight. These choices tend to work for unit listings.

- **Show the light**: Apartment shoppers often ask first how bright a unit is. A frame of the main room facing the windows answers that faster than any line in the description.
- **Show the outlook honestly**: If the unit looks over a park, a skyline or a planted courtyard, one frame through the window gives that outlook its moment. If the window faces a neighboring wall, skip the view frame rather than crop toward something better.
- **One frame per amenity**: A gym, a pool deck and a package room are each worth a single photo at most. When amenity photos outnumber unit photos, the piece starts to feel like a building brochure.
- **Kitchen and bath, not the closet**: In a compact unit the kitchen and bathroom carry the finish story. Closets and laundry nooks usually sit better in the photo gallery.
- **A balcony as the pause**: Private outdoor space is scarce in apartment buildings, so a balcony or terrace frame, even a narrow one, deserves a place in the set.
- **Match exteriors to the unit shoot**: A building exterior photographed in another season can look like a different address. Use exterior and amenity photos taken close to the unit photos where you can.

## What makes apartment listings different

- **Units look alike in search**: Large buildings often list several units with similar layouts at once, so photos of the specific finishes, exposure and outlook are what separate one listing from the next.
- **The building is part of the home**: Shared amenities, a staffed front desk and on site laundry often weigh as heavily as the rooms themselves, especially in dense city markets.
- **Floor and exposure matter**: Which floor a unit sits on and which way its windows face shape both the light and the outlook, which is why many agents mention them in the listing remarks.
- **Compact rooms need wide frames**: Small rooms photographed too tightly can look cramped, while wide but undistorted frames give a fairer sense of the space.
- **Made from the photos you have**: ListingVideosAI makes the apartment video from the still photographs of the unit and the building, so no new shoot is needed.
- **You choose the frames**: You decide which unit and amenity photos go in; one video covers one property from up to 20 photos.

## Apartment photo choices for the video

| Apartment photo | What it tells a viewer | Use it in the video? |
|---|---|---|
| Main living area toward the windows | Light and usable space | Yes, a core frame |
| Kitchen with the counters in view | Finish level and cooking space | Yes |
| Outlook through the best window | Floor height and surroundings | Yes, if the outlook is a strength |
| Lobby or building entrance | Arrival and upkeep | One frame |
| Fitness room, pool or roof deck | Shared amenities | The strongest one or two |
| Mailroom, corridor or storage cage | Practical details | Leave for the gallery |

## What is an apartment video tour?

In listing terms, an apartment video tour is a sequence of photos of one unit and the building around it: the main rooms, the outlook and the amenities a resident would use. With ListingVideosAI it is made from the still photographs you already have and delivered as one finished video for your review.

_It is not a live or interactive tour of the unit, and it does not add rooms, furniture or amenities that the photos do not show._

## Apartment listing video questions

### How many amenity photos belong in an apartment video?

Usually one or two of the strongest shared spaces. The unit itself should take most of the photos so viewers remember the home, not only the building.

### Can I use the building's own marketing photos of the pool and gym?

Only if you have permission to use them and they show the amenities as they are today. Upload only photos you are allowed to use, and do not let the video misrepresent the property.

### The apartment is small. Will the video make it look bigger?

No, and it should not try to. A considered sequence of wide, honest frames helps a viewer understand how the rooms connect, which is more useful than a run of tight shots.

### Should building photos or unit photos make up most of an apartment video?

Unit photos, in most cases. One exterior or lobby frame gives the address some context, and the rest of the set can stay inside the apartment.

### Does the apartment need to be photographed again for the video?

No. The apartment video is made from still photographs, so the unit photos from the listing shoot are what you upload. Video clips are not accepted.

### What does an apartment listing video cost?

One listing video is $15 one-time for one listing video, or one credit on a monthly plan; each unit you list is its own video.

### What does the apartment video leave out?

It does not add furniture, change finishes or show amenities that the photos leave out. For a specific format or platform requirement, contact support@listingvideosai.com before ordering.
