3D Virtual Tours are fast becoming a staple of marketing a property. Aside from complimenting a new climate of ‘social distancing’, providing a contactless, interactive experience of a property over photos alone is the natural progression in a world where marketing has become so centered on having an impressive online presence.
A study by REA in April 2020 noted that 61% of viewers feel that properties with digital inspections make a listing feel more ‘premium’, and 62% felt more positively about the listing agent.
Asset Reports has been proud to work with home builders to bring their entire suite of display homes to life. Even amid the ease of restrictions, the Virtual Tours continue to be a valuable tool allowing viewers to get a sense of the size, scale and layout of the designs on offer in preparation for taking advantage of the new government incentives for building new properties.

“I’ve seen easily a 50 to 60 per cent increase in more business than the week prior. We’ve doubled our bookings.
