There are many benefits of using our Virtual Tours...

  • Time Saving

    Cut the balloons off the mailbox, and spend Saturday mornings with your kids.
    Did you know that 81% of U.S. Homebuyers use the Internet and Virtual Tours as a resource when they are searching for a new home, and only 35% attend Open Houses? Why inconvenience yourself and your sellers? Once you’ve spent an hour or less creating a virtual tour, you have essentially created a round-the-clock online open house that buyers can conveniently experience from their home or office computer.

    If a buyer is interested in making an appointment, he or she can immediately send you an e-mail, or page your cell phone directly from the tour! For the price of the balloons you would usually tie to the mailbox, you can spend Saturday morning at your home, not somebody else’s!

Look at all of the money that you spend promoting your listings.

      The Cost of your time?

      The cost of your appointments?

      The cost of balloons and signage?

      The cost of closing gifts?

Agents who use the Internet and Virtual Tours have to show half    as many homes to each buyer, and spend one third of the time with each buyer before a purchase is made. You’ll spend less time with each buyer, less time traveling, less money on promotion and open house supplies, and have a ready-made closing gift to give to the buyer. Downloaded virtual tours make great closing gifts.

  • Sell More   

According to REALTOR magazine’s annual survey of buyers and sellers, sellers interested in listing their home typically look for the Real Estate professional who will do the most to bring the most buyers to the table.

                    

 Everyone (including home sellers) knows that virtual tours help sell homes. Using them for every listing is a powerful way for you to differentiate yourself from other agents in your area, and secure more listings. Telling a prospective client that you will have a virtual tour of their listing created and posted online by the end of the day is a strong incentive for them to list with you.

 

 

 

 

 This philosophy carries beyond the listing appointment and makes an impression with potential sellers every time they see an advertisement for your listings. Including a virtual tour with every listing shows potential clients that you go above and beyond your competitors that only post ‘front of house’ photos on their websites and in their print advertisements, and makes them think of you when it is time to sell their home.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • Sell/Rent Faster

Every year, more U.S. Home Seekers use the Internet to search for homes. Over two-thirds of U.S. Homebuyers plan to use the Internet in their next home purchase, and that number is growing every year. Online buyers have come to value virtual tours as one of the most effective tools for conducting an online home search, and if a listing has a virtual tour, it will be viewed more frequently than one without. More eyes on your listings means more leads for you, and more leads typically result in more sales. Does this necessarily mean that your listings will sell faster if you use Virtual Tours?

 

The answer is yes... 

Internet home seekers are more self-reliant, and come to the table more preared to make a purchace decision. According to the National Association of Realtors, the adverage internet home seeker in 2008 spent 60 days searching online before contaction an agent, while the adverage traditional home seeker (who did'nt use the internet or virtual tours), spent only 15 days searching before contacting the an agent.

Spend one third the time with Buyers before closing the sale

The earlier and agent is brought into the home buying process, the better! An average traditional home seeker will spend and average of 46 days consulting with and agent before making a purchase, while an average internet home seeler will only spend 15 days.

Show half as many homes to each buyer

The same study revealed that the average traditional home buyer visited 14 homes with their agent, while the average Internet home buyer visited only 7 homes. In the end, 72% of Internet Home Buyers found the home they ended up buying through an Agent, compared with 63% of Traditional buyers.

 

All of this means that by using Virtual Tours, and marketing your listings online, you will:

  • Get more leads
  • Spend less time with each buyer
  • Show less homes to each buyer
  • Be less likely to lose a buyer to a FSBO
