Red Hot Camera provides a one stop shop range of visual marketing for the real estate industry.
RHC's target market presently offers significant potential growth as the provision of these services on a franchised national basis is a recent concept. As markets become aware of the product, demand increases significantly.
RHC directors have been involved in the US, UK, Australian and New Zealand real estate markets, they have experienced first-hand the increasing popularity and expanding market for professional photography and web based property promotion.
Recent macro-economic developments have further increased the demand for these services as sellers and estate agents look for every advantage they can when promoting a property in a 'crowded' marketplace.
Rapidly evolving technology and its consequent impact on delivery systems and services means a key focus of RHC as Franchisor is the continued assessment, testing and development of new technology and products.
