Redefining Real Estate: Unlocking Doors with Virtual Tours and Extended Reality

Redefining Real Estate: Unlocking Doors with Virtual Tours and Extended Reality
Sep 7, 2023

Mismatched expectations. This is a common problem faced by real estate agents when it comes to listings and interested buyers. This mismatch, and subsequent disappointment, happens when the details of a property listing and marketing materials don’t align with what potential buyers are expecting during property visits.

Bridging this gap is vital, and emerging technology makes it straightforward. With virtual tours and extended reality software, real estate agents can engage with buyers more effectively and interactively than ever before.

In this blog, we’ll explore the various ways in which virtual tours and extended reality offer a unique solution to the dilemma of connection disparity and the challenge of mismatched expectations in the dynamic real estate sector.

Improved Accuracy

One of the most significant advantages offered by virtual tours is accuracy. They empower agents to showcase properties precisely as they are, leaving no room for surprises or disappointments during in-person viewings.

Buyers can navigate through every nook and cranny, gaining a comprehensive understanding of the property's layout, features, and condition.

In VR mode, this genuine experience is further intensified, immersing potential buyers completely.

The accuracy offered by virtual tours is so crucial that a whopping 54% of buyers won’t even consider a house listing unless it includes one. Moreover, the transparency offered by virtual tours not only saves valuable time for both agents and potential buyers but also sets realistic expectations for the property.

Stronger Leads

Virtual tours aren’t just about showcasing properties, they’re about drawing in a crowd of astute and discerning buyers.

These immersive experiences provide a gateway for potential buyers to intimately connect with a property from afar, enabling well-informed judgements about the space.

The outcome? A surge in more qualified leads. Listings with virtual tours tend to sell 31% faster than those without them.

That’s because prospective buyers have already forged a bond with the property, leading to a more streamlined sales journey.

Wider Reach

The reach of virtual tours extend beyond physical limitations. Whether individuals are stuck in traffic, dealing with unexpected home issues, or enjoying a vacation, virtual listings open a window of engagement.

Prospective buyers get round-the-clock access to the property, free from the pressure of hurried viewings. Notably, real estate listings featuring a virtual home tour experience an 87% increase in views compared to those lacking this immersive feature.

Virtual property tours via video calls also becomes possible, enabling interested buyers from anywhere to explore properties with an agent. This expanded reach connects real estate professionals with new audiences and widens their market presence.

Connection

Virtual staging adds another layer of imagination and connection to properties. For those who struggle to envision themselves in empty spaces, virtual staging introduces 3D objects, facilitating a stronger connection and visualization of the property's potential.

Engagement Analytics

Engagement analytics bring valuable insights into viewer interactions with properties. By understanding viewer preferences and behavior, real estate professionals can fine-tune their in-person viewings for maximum effectiveness, thanks to data collected during virtual tours.

The Treedis Advantage

Incorporating Treedis into the real estate sector proves highly effective in not only meeting but exceeding prospective buyers' expectations, fostering lasting connections with properties.

At its core, the platform necessitates the creation of a digital twin for each property, serving as the cornerstone for the immersive experiences it subsequently delivers through virtual tours. Once this digital twin is uploaded, the seamless integration of Treedis and its array of virtual tour functionalities becomes readily accessible.

Treedis Enhanced Virtual Tours

Prospective buyers can immerse themselves in properties using various devices, from virtual reality headsets to computers and mobile devices. This flexibility allows them to interact with virtual objects, aiding them in making informed purchasing decisions.

Additionally, the Treedis 3D editor empowers agents to creatively stage spaces, enhancing the property's appeal.

Treedis Hub and Avatars

The Treedis Hub and Avatars feature further extends the reach of virtual tours. Serving as a dynamic video conferencing tool, it facilitates remote visits to property listings. Agents can guide users through properties in real-time, connecting with a broader audience than ever before.

Treedis Analytics

The Treedis analytics page offers a range of valuable insights, including the duration spent on a tour, a heat map illustrating the tour’s popular areas, viewership statistics such as peak times, and even geographic data, revealing the countries from which it was accessed.

In conclusion, virtual tours and extended reality technologies are revolutionizing the real estate industry, resolving the challenge of mismatched expectations and forging deeper connections between properties and potential buyers- ultimately unlocking more doors.

These innovations offer accuracy, stronger leads, wider reach, imagination, and enhanced engagement analytics. When coupled with platforms like Treedis, they provide a holistic solution for creating unforgettable real estate experiences that meet and exceed buyers' expectations.

The future of real estate is more immersive and connected than ever before, thanks to these transformative technologies.
