It's become the sensation of Rightmove and it's being described as the ultimate cameo made in a house sale video by a vendor.
The only thing is, the seller is dressed as a panda.
The Yorkshire Post says estate agent Richard Welpton persuaded Lee Wilson to appear on-screen in a video promoting the sale of his £425,000 home near Beverley.
But he didn't want to appear in it in a conventional way - he wanted to dress as a strikingly cute giant panda.
"I get very bored of seeing the same old pictures and videos. For me it's a bit like groundhog day. My first idea was to film homeowners in their properties, sitting at the dining table and watching TV. The plan was that this would bring the houses to life while introducing prospective buyers to the seller" Welpton has told the paper.
"I've asked lots of clients but no-one wanted to do it so then I thought it would be fun to have them dressed in disguise. That idea didn't catch on until Lee agreed to do it and we're hoping that it makes the house stand out. We certainly had a lot of laughs shooting the video."
