Stepping up from “virtual tours” with Matterport

For decades, agents looking to advertise homes for sale had one option, the print media. Then, in the mid-80s, the the internet changed the world. But still that only offered a wider, and cheaper, exposure for Realtors’ still photographs. It took another two decades for dramatic advances to appear. Now Realtors are expanding their presentations with drone photography, virtual staging, and 3D tours. #Matterport The best 3D tours are truly stepping up from the “virtual tours” that appeared a just few years ago. Those either seem stilted or tacky in comparison to the 3D tour, and sometimes turn out to be simply slide shows with music. The more naturalistic 3D tour allows you to move around in the room, and among the rooms, and zoom in to inspect details. Change Levels, view the doll house view or switch to a floor plan of the home. All of these options are available for home and condo listings at davidpylyp.com , the website of Realtor David Pylyp (RE/MAX Realty Specialists Inc Brokerage). 647.218.2414 Book your event today http://Calendly.com/DavidPylyp #Toronto #Canada April 08, 2019
