Frequently Asked Questions

How does AB 723 compliance work in video content?
BuildMyListing automatically tracks all photo enhancements and adds compliant captions to videos. Enhanced photos show 'Photo enhanced for marketing purposes' with links to public disclosure pages meeting California AB 723 requirements.
What fair housing rules apply to video marketing?
HUD prohibits discriminatory language in all marketing materials including videos. Our AI scans text overlays, captions, and descriptions for prohibited terms before content creation, ensuring compliance.
Can I use the same video on multiple platforms?
Yes, but each platform has different compliance display requirements. BuildMyListing exports platform-specific versions with proper AB 723 disclosure formatting for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.
How do virtual staging disclosures work in short videos?
Virtual staging must be clearly disclosed in video content. We add 'Virtually staged' overlays during staged room scenes and include detailed disclosure links in video descriptions.

30-45 seconds performs best for real estate. Enough time to show 5-7 key features while maintaining viewer attention. BuildMyListing automatically creates platform-optimized lengths.
