Effectiveness of Youtube for SEO?

To translate a high ranking Youtube video to one that shows up on a regular Web search is something I'm still in the dark about. I easily achieved a number one spot for a video in keyword terms, ie. Mirasol homes for sale, in the Google video search, but no impact has been seen yet in the SERP. I still need to investigate whether there are any controllable factors in when a video result is rendered in a web search.

The video is here: Mirasol Homes For Sale | Take A Mini-Tour Right Now | Mirasol in Palm Beach Gardens

This site outperforms my client's new site. I'd like to see that change. It will take time because Mirasol homes is a heavily competed for keyword in several areas.
