A survey conducted by Coldwell Banker says 77% of buyers prefer to see virtual tours before seeing a home in person. What does that mean for your business?

Selling More Homes/Apartments

One of the easiest things you can do is to start including virtual tours for all of your listings. It may be easier than it sounds.

Tours Are Free

Most companies that provide tours for you will give you a free trial. Really all you need is your phone camera, but you’re better off with a 360 camera. You can get a consumer-grade 360 for just a couple hundred dollars.

Embedding is Laborious

Actually you can just grab the embed code somewhere, and plop it into your site. But as you begin to do this for different tours, it gets very time consuming. Imagine you have a few sites, and you are updating some tours. How many places will you have to update the embed code? This begins to get very laborious.

The Solution

Fortunately you can use 3D Tours to handle the tours for all your listings. All you need to add is one line of JavaScript. Then you can add tours for all your listings, in one place. You even get a nice button to show the tour, instead of having to take up valuable screen real-estate showing a virtual tour that may never be used.
