360 Virtual tours have an obvious application in real estate, including sales by owners. They are not limited to residential houses, but can also be effective with industrial and commercial properties.
VR tours are especially valuable when a prospective buyer may not be able to visit the property straight away, as in the case of overseas buyers. The ability to make a visual inspection is of immense value to both buyers and sellers.
A buyer who has already inspected a property through a 360 panoramic tour, then wants to see it personally, is clearly more interested and qualified than a spec’ buyer being shown round for the first time. This also saves seller’s time, whether it be a Real Estate Agent or an owner, selling it personally.
