We’d like to spotlight Enterprise Network Member Residential Properties out of Rhode Island in today’s blog. Residential Properties entered a video into the 2009 REALTOR Party Video Contest on YouTube in an effort to extend the $8,000 First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit.

This video features a first time homebuyer and single mom, Andrea Larocque, and Kathy Vaillancourt from Residential’s Narragansett office. With the tax credit, Andrea, who struggled to get out of debt after putting herself through school to become a radiology technician, was able to purchase a home for her and her nine-year-old son, Isaiah.

This is an inspiring video that tells a story about the importance of our customers. It’s about the emotional connection- what can we do to showcase our efforts in putting the customer first? Videos, blogs, and social networking sites can all be used to our advantage. With so many avenues for reaching out to people, we need to start finding new ways to utilize these great opportunities. Residential’s video didn’t take any expensive equipment to accomplish this task, just the desire to use these great resources to meet the needs of their customers.
