Virtual Reality is the new OPEN HOUSE

How are home's being sold in Today's Internet savvy market?

Searching online is ever evolving; Realtor's understand that a picture is worth a thousand words, a Video even more.  How so then does a Virtual Tour scale?  This truly gives you a better look at a property than ever before. You see what you want to see, unfiltered. 

There is a new team player that incorporates #Matterport 3D scans to display a home.  As reported by CNN these OPEN HOUSE tours can be watched at your convenience, on an ipad or with the newest VR Glasses. Don the glasses and you are instantly transported inside the home. My preference is for an iPad.  It is possible to load to a smartphone but the screens are smaller.

This camera can provide a 360 degree interior views of the home [actually include exterior and outdoor views.] You can climb the stairs or look down from the balcony to below. Ultimately a much richer experience for viewing than flat images, or the video slide shows with Ken Burns effect.

Each Camera location can create its own 360 degree image.  Floor plans and Tagginging are available.  Even Social Media Sharing to show off your home to your friends or peers.

Have a look at a few samples below; 




Condo suites are especially suitable for this 3D technology as they are often tenanted and access is limited.





If you have any questions for me or about the Matterport technology, or any other real estate related topic,  I invite you to call 647 218 2414 and we can have a conversation.

What will happen in Toronto Real Estate 2015?

We are bullish and optimistic for the real estate market in 2015 because people consider Toronto ON a destination and an employer.

WHY?

We have first class universities; unmatched health care (PAID FOR) New start up companies are venturing north for technology (WESTERN University and Google in Guelph Kitchener)  Film Industry is strong here!   Our real estate values and Banking Systems are secure and confidant.

Vacancy

As more people arrive in the Toronto GTA Vacancy becomes an issue. Toronto is currently at 1.8% that are vacant even with 20,000 plus units added annually.

The affordability of Condo units as a purchase allows many to move forward to own their own space in Toronto.

Institutional Builders  IE Greenpark, Cadillac Fairview, are not building apartment buildings to add to the rental pool.   The City of Toronto and the Municipal Housing Authority have no budget to repair their existing housing stock. Nevermind building rental inventory.  Two buildings ( Urban Corp ) just converted their projects to rental stock.




All of the slides contained in this presentation are available to you for use.  They are from the Fourth Quarter update and Forecast by Canada Mortgage and Housing.  


Would you like to talk about any of the material here?

The acute shortage of detached homes with the 416 will continue as demand heightens this spring.  Townhouses and semi will share the same enthusiasm
