Over the past couple of weeks, a few clients have asked about 3D virtual tours: what they are and why they’re useful. To make it easier, I put together a short 3-minute video that covers the most common points and explains how these tours can benefit your listings.

How 3D virtual tours are changing real estate, by Megapixeler

The short answer

A 3D tour is a scanned, walkable model of the home. Buyers can move room to room, see how spaces connect, and come back to it as many times as they like. That means more time spent on your listing and better-qualified showings.

If questions come up after watching, I’m always happy to help. You can see examples of our 3D tours in the portfolio.
