    R Street
    This piece marked an early shift in how we approached our property videos, incorporating lighting and popular music in a way that felt new at the time and immediately captured attention.

    Cecilia's Point
    This was an opportunity to push further with our marketing initiatives given the scale and volume of the property. Through that campaign, we sourced a $12M offer directly from social, submitted prior to a tour, and ultimately closed within a week.

    2025 Recap
    Our year-end video captured the challenges of the market over the last few years and how our small team persereved to deliver record results. It is a testament to the mindset and commitment of the people who are part of HEIDER Real Estate.

    International Women's Day
    Our most recent piece, and one that speaks more to our brand rather than a specific property. It reflects where we're heading creatively in a forward-looking marketing approach.
