BrokerIPTV : We talking with David Hiebeler today, real estate interactive specialist with the Denver Newspaper Agency, Dave thanks for being with us, good to have you.

David Hiebeler: Thank you, my pleasure.

BrokerIPTV : Hey, you guys launched a new virtual online video tour, earlier this year, tell us about it?

David Hiebeler: Well what we did, we have been doing video tours for home builders over three years and we really stepped up our efforts, we launched the new video player that basically put everybody front in the center its called the video show case. It is on the cover of our site and several other places and what it is does is it's really intuitive, every body is doing good jobs, online with videos, but what this does is you can search by price, by bed bath and by cities. So very intuitive, so if you click in new construction, you don't drill in to new construction or resales, the same way.

BrokerIPTV : Video seems to ruling the day in real estate, I am sure you have been out that the conventions and so forth more people jumping in to video, what's your take on that?

David Hiebeler: It is all a part of web 2.0 and that's web 2.0 is a convenient little box, I think we have been hearing a lot seems to a buzz words, but can mean a lot of different things to lot of people. It should be I feel a part of your interactive strategy for selling properties these days.

BrokerIPTV : How does an agent get involved with your video program. Is it difficult to get a listing up?

David Hiebeler: It's pretty easy to do, all you need to do is to give us the MLS number or if you have a brochure, that you have created, you like the photography, send us that or we can build it from scratch, just five photos and we can have it to market live in 72 hours, three working days.

BrokerIPTV : Wow, This seems pretty easy. What's the type of traffic that we are seeing, I mean the number of people that are coming in a monthly and weekly basis?

David Hiebeler: Right, we have over 4000 videos views every month and that's gone up from lets say 500, previous to this big push.

BrokerIPTV : Well, one of the things, I was thinking that will be needed, I don't know this is ever in your focus and discussion groups is, if the realtors get information about the people, who are looking at him. That's not the name and address, bur more general information about who is viewing our home.

David Hiebeler: Right, Well that is something, I probably would ask for as an agent, however, we do have a really strong privacy policy at Denverpostrockymountiannews.com and we do value their privacy of our users, so there are other packages we do that can get you the names and who these folks are, so it is pretty guarded.

BrokerIPTV : In I am speaking from a realtor perspective, but I imagine you are in, conversations and discussion groups figuring out, what's the next piece of that puzzle?

David Hiebeler: Exactly, we are looking at our philosophy is if you design any thing online or in print for the user and the end user, everybody wins.

BrokerIPTV : Dave fascinating stuff, thanks for being with us, appreciate it.

David Hiebeler: You back, thank you.
