Video Captions for Real Estate
A property tour scrolls past in a feed with the sound off, and everything that sells the place — the square footage, the school catchment, the year the roof was done — lives in your voiceover.
Captions put those details on screen where a buyer scrolling silently can actually read them. About 30 seconds per video, free, no watermark.

Why real estate teams caption
The parts of captioning that matter most for this kind of video.
Numbers and features, on screen
Square footage, bedroom counts, plot size and year built are the details that qualify a buyer. In a silent feed they only exist if they are captioned.
Timed to the room
Captions land on the space being shown, so the description matches what is on screen rather than trailing a room behind.
Every listing placement
The same tour becomes a vertical cut for Reels, a square for the feed and a widescreen for the listing page, each with caption framing to suit.
International buyers
Export subtitle tracks in other languages so a listing reaches overseas buyers without recording a separate voiceover.

Edit and export
Correct the terms specific to real estate, then download the video with captions burned in, or export a clean .srt or .vtt file.
The details that qualify a buyer are all in the audio
A property video does two things at once. The footage sells the feeling of the place — the light, the space, the street. The voiceover does the qualifying: the dimensions, the tenure, the council band, the fact the boiler is three years old.
On a listing page someone might have the sound on. In a social feed they almost never do, and social is where property video now reaches people who were not already searching. So the footage arrives intact and the qualifying information arrives not at all, which means viewers who would have been genuinely interested scroll past because nothing told them the specifics.
Captioning is a direct fix, and it has a useful side effect: putting the numbers on screen filters out enquiries from people the property was never going to suit. A buyer who reads the square footage and the price in the first five seconds and keeps watching is a better lead than one who watched the whole tour without either.

Frequently Asked Questions
Specific to this kind of video, not the generic list.
Will it transcribe narration recorded while walking through a property?
Yes. Walkthrough audio with footsteps, room echo and outdoor noise transcribes well, since speech is separated from background sound before the transcript is generated.
Are figures like square footage transcribed accurately?
Numbers transcribe reliably in clear audio. Since these are the details buyers act on, they are worth a quick check in the editor before export.
Should I burn captions in or use a subtitle file?
Burn them in for Reels, TikTok and Shorts, and for listing-page players that have no captions toggle. Export an .srt as well if the tour also goes to YouTube.
Can I caption the same tour for different platforms?
Yes. Transcribe once, then export with caption placement and sizing suited to a vertical, square or widescreen cut without re-transcribing.
Can I edit my captions before exporting?
Yes. Correct the transcript, adjust timings, choose a caption style and then export the finished video or a clean SRT or VTT file.
