New Developments
The Future of Selling Virtually
It's hard to give people the feel for new developments without going there, and it's often hard to organize going there with potential buyers. Virtual tours lets potential buyers visit the new development or tower from the safety of their own homes, 24/7, from any location world wide.
Let customers explore and walk through the sales office with links to appliance and fixture providers, visit the model homes or take the virtual elevator to different apartments under construction and see 360-degree views of a specific unit, including an accurate digital floor-plan, where they can measure digitally if their furniture fits into the rooms by using their computer, tablet, or smartphone. They can take a 3D Virtual Tour of the entire project before making an appointment. The intent is to entice the buyer to visit in person and encourage them beyond the physical location and opening hours of your sales office.
Hybrid tours
The sample below was done for the "Las Cárcavas" Development in Rocha. The same could be done for an Apartment Tower. If you fly or walk through a tour, you can click on certain areas to explore in 360 degrees, enter, for example, instead of the model home an apartment on the 20th floor with its specific views or watch a video of a recent event like you can see in this sample in the BBQ, Tennis, Beach deck or Pool area.

We use the 3D Virtual Tour technology to allow its customer to browse around the premises and see what’s on offer. They can see and click on a specific product to see the full details by a hot-link to the manufacturer or even initiate a live video chat with the salesperson to discuss further.
This can be accomplished with bird-eye drone shots, online videos, 360 photo tours, 360 videos, and iGUIDE® 3D Virtual Tours with integrated digital floor-plans, if desired viewable with VR headsets, designed to make the visitor feel as if they are walking through the property. We supply the builder with weekly analytics of his online traffic.

The sample below is a Perfume Cellar in Spain but could be as well a sales office of a builder. As soon you click the salesperson, he comes alive and talks about his products.

Google Street View
Attract more customers by connecting the 3D Virtual Tour to Google Business/Street View. Google Business/Street View offers a significant advantage over your competitors by providing your potential customers that extra level of confidence by allowing them to see inside your business. It's a fact; images have a significant impact on a person's decision-making when searching for local companies. Supplying a 3D Virtual Tour sets you apart from your competitors and provides an experience that’s informative and entertaining.
In summary, builders should consider the advantages of including virtual visit components in their overall marketing strategy. Not only are they useful in times of crisis, where sales offices are forced to shut down due to natural disasters and pandemics, they are also a means of attracting the next generation of consumers, who have already integrated online experiences into their lives. Taking the time to invest in some of the components of an online 24/7 sales system – without business hours – is a powerful first step towards creating a resilient business that can be successful during crisis and calm.
Virtual Staging
We can also virtually stage a unit with a digital floor plan. These 99.6% accurate floor plans done by our iGUIDE® laser camera can be uploaded for free to an application like floorplanner.com so that the client can virtually furnish his apartment or house. He can digitally measure the unit or print a floor plan in Pdf. Please see our page about virtual staging.
The video below is a sample of a live session with integrated video conferencing that can be controlled by any participant. This could be integrated in a 3D Virtual tour for a virtual live showing. The possibilities are endless.
