Home staging, photography, videography, and 3D virtual tours
The advantages of virtual tours
Whether using 3D modeling or 2D panoramic views, virtual tours offer many benefits for both sellers and buyers.
The advantages for the buyer
Obviously, the main advantage of this type of visit for potential buyers is the fact that it avoids travel (and saves on associated transportation costs). This also saves time, which is significant in our constantly busy lives.
Not having to go directly to the location can be very practical when you want to move to a place far from your current residence.
Virtual tours allow the potential buyer to look for a property in another city, region, province and even another country, without leaving the comfort of their living room. Virtual tours also offer the benefit of not having to worry about scheduling conflicts. In the case of a family looking to find a new home, this aspect can be very interesting. Indeed, it is much easier to consult the desired property directly online, at the desired time and at the desired time, than to try to reserve a time slot that works with everyone's daily constraints.
The advantages for the seller
Using virtual tours when listing for sale allows the owner to ensure that their home is presented optimally, particularly if they use the services of professionals. This is a much more interesting and, above all, much more immersive process for the buyer than using simple photos.
Virtual tours also maximize the visibility of the property. More people can thus see the home, when they want, while requiring less management on the part of the seller or their broker. To the extent that the owner is also the resident of the residence, he will suffer much less disruption.
Using these visits saves time and, at the same time, speeds up the sales process. They offer a fairly precise idea of the premises so that the potential buyer can get an idea and decide whether or not they wish to continue the purchasing process.
Buyers who are not interested enough will then stop at this step and avoid contacting the seller or their broker. There is therefore an initial sorting which is carried out through virtual visits, which reduces the number of proposals which will not result in an agreement.
How to highlight your home for a virtual tour ?
As in the case of a traditional visit, it is important to put all the chances on your side to attract potential buyers. Showcasing your property, among other things through home staging, can effectively optimize the sales process by creating an atmosphere conducive to capturing interest and creating love at first sight among visitors.
