AI Video Tools for Real Estate Agents

AI video tools write scripts, add captions automatically, cut out mistakes and even create avatar videos, so you can post more video with less editing time.

Use AI voice and likeness responsibly

Only clone your own voice or likeness. Get written consent before you use anyone else's voice, face or likeness, and tell viewers when a voice or video is AI-generated.

What's new

  • October 16, 2026: HeyGen launched HeyGen Voice, a new voice model included with every HeyGen video at no extra cost. It can learn your voice from up to 60 seconds of audio and read your script in Spanish, German, French or Chinese. Only clone your own voice, and tell viewers when a video uses an AI voice.

Setup in 5 minutes

  1. Start with a free editor like CapCut (auto-captions, templates).
  2. For talking-head videos, try Descript (edit video by editing text) or an avatar tool like HeyGen.
  3. Write your script with ChatGPT or Claude using the prompts below.
  4. Always add captions. Many people watch with sound off.
