The Surprising Perks of 3D Virtual Tours in homebuying

It doesn’t matter if you are lazy, too busy, or far away; looking for a new home can be a daunting task. You have to schedule viewings, dress up, and spend most of the time engaging in awkward small talk.  House hunting can be exhausting, time-consuming, and frustrating. Except when you are watching it on HGTV, then homebuying seems so easy, right? Not at all!

And what happens when you finally do make it to a property, only to find that it doesn’t meet your expectations? Or do you get lost in the basement, only to be confronted with unspeakable horrors and smells? Ewww, Plus, let’s not forget about those pushy agents who seem to be more interested in closing the deal than helping you find your dream home.

In this digital age, we all stare at our phones a lot.

We have access to everything we want to purchase with just a few clicks. Technology has made it incredibly convenient. Whatever you desire—from medicines, furniture, food, dating, play, searching, or booking a hotel—you name it. There’s an app available for that.

According to the Matterport study, more than 90% of buyers were more likely to buy a property if the listing included an immersive 3D tour.

The same result came up for PhotoUp, which found that 90% of prospective buyers would be more likely to buy a property if the listing included a virtual tour. Nearly the same number reported that they would prefer to work with an agent who could offer the service over those who could not.

According to another source in the 2021 Home Buyers and Sellers Generational Trends Report, 58% of buyers say they want to see virtual tours of listings. Also, 57% of buyers say that 3D tours have helped them make a more informed decision about a property, and 92% of millennials would be more likely to buy a home if they could view it virtually.

As you can see, there are an increasing number of users who prefer to search for a house using virtual tours. Homebuying with 3D virtual tours lets you see any property from home without awkward interactions, dress rules, or more.

No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problem: The Bare Necessities of 3D Virtual Tours

Imagine this: you wake up, stretch out in your cozy pajamas, and suddenly remember that you have a virtual tour scheduled for a luxurious home worth millions.

The best part? You don’t have to worry about impressing anyone with your fancy attire because, with 3D virtual tours, you can explore those grand abodes while being pantsless.

That’s right, let those legs breathe freely without a care in the world! After all, who’s going to know? No one can see you!

No more hiding your horror.

Picture this: You’re on a physical tour of a house, and suddenly, your eyes land on the wallpaper—it’s a floral pattern from the 1970s, so ghastly that it makes you want to claw your own eyes out.

Well, no more hiding your horror. Thanks to 3D virtual tours, you can now openly cringe and recoil as you navigate through each room without the risk of offending the homeowners.

So go ahead and let your reactions fly; the tacky wallpaper and hideous carpets won’t judge you.

Say Goodbye to Awkward Bathroom Breaks:

True story.  Have you ever been in an open house and desperately needed the bathroom? And the worst part is that you needed to go “number 2.”

You’re so embarrassed that you regret eating those tacos last night. With a 3D virtual tour, you might be home or in your office, so you can take a break whenever you want without any awkwardness.

Step Right Up Without Stepping Out: Why walk when you can click?

Can you imagine the ability to teleport from one estate to another in seconds? With Matterport 3D virtual tours, you can jump from one property to another without any enchanted capes.

We’ve all experienced the feeling of dread while touring an attic or basement. So dark and cold—kind of creepy sometimes, huh?

Luckily, with the wonders of technology, a 3D tour allows you to click your way out of that dungeon and transport yourself to the kitchen. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy the virtual escape. Who needs to physically be there anyway? 😉

It’s okay to judge a book by its cover.

With virtual tours, you can explore every aspect of a property, from the quirky gnome to the carefully endowed bathroom tiles. You can examine every aspect without any guilt or hesitation.

No More Pushy Agents or Owners:

We’ve all encountered a homeowner who won’t stop following us around, pointing out every little detail of the property.

Sayonara to the excruciatingly painful small talk!

You no longer have to go through (or suffer) those forced conversations with real estate agents about the latest sports game or the mundane weather patterns.

Picture this: You can now lazily peruse homes from the sanctity of your own cozy abode, free from pesky interruptions or distractions. Ain’t technology grand?

Unlimited Kitchen Access:

Feel free to zoom in on kitchen shots and pretend to raid the fridge without worrying about consuming any calories. Virtual tours give you complete access to every part of a property, including the heart of the home.

“Pet allergies? No Problem”

Do you love pets but suffer from allergies? Homebuying with 3D virtual tours allows you to enjoy the company of a homeowner’s dog without any allergic reactions. Technology has made it possible to have a sneeze-free petting experience.

Turn your stressful move into a fun experience.

It’s impossible to say enough good things about how virtual walks make long-distance moves easier. They have changed the way people move by combining technology with ease of use to make moving easy. Not only is using these digital tools a way to stay in style, but it’s also a way to make a big move as stress-free as possible!
