Potential buyers want less exposure to the coronavirus, but your clients want their houses to get more exposure in the property market. This is where a 3D virtual house tour comes in.
If COVID-19 is getting in the way of residential property viewings then 360° property tours offer a great solution. They allow the potential buyer to view a property in high detail without having to travel. This gives your property more exposure than the virus.
Not exactly viral marketing, but it’s getting there.

Three big benefits to virtual tours for estate agents:
1. Speed
Sell properties faster with immersive 3D photo tours
2: Cost
Save time and money by weeding out unqualified leads
3: Ease
Attract clients looking for safer ways to market their property
Although this doesn’t remove the need for in-person viewings, these tours show off your properties in the best possible light.
Visitors are able to explore the space with transitions between 360° photospheres, giving them a clear understanding of the relationship between rooms. Furthermore, the ‘dollhouse view’ allows them to see the insides of the whole property from outside, like an opened dollhouse.
