The Matterport - What is it and how can it help you on your Real Estate Journey ?
In the ever-evolving landscape of real estate, staying ahead of the curve is crucial. Matterport, a cutting-edge 3D virtual tour platform is transforming how properties are showcased in real estate. Property Connections uses this technology to provide immersive virtual experiences for buyers and sellers.
What is Matterport?
Matterport is an advanced 3D camera and software platform that captures detailed, interactive virtual tours of interior spaces. It creates a digital twin of a physical property, allowing potential buyers to walk through a home virtually as if they were there in person. These tours are accessible online from any device, offering a 24/7 open house without ever stepping foot in the property.
How Property Connections Uses Matterport
Here at Property Connections we use Matterport to enhance property listings with high-quality virtual experiences. Here is how we do it:
1. Immersive Virtual Tours
By embedding Matterport tours directly into online listings, It gives buyers the ability to explore homes room-by-room, zoom in on features, and even measure spaces virtually. Simply click on virtual tours tab on any property listed on our website and you will be redirected to the Matterport web - page.
2. Wider Reach for Marketing
Matterport models can be shared across social media, emailed to clients, or featured on real estate platforms as well as the company’s own website. This allows properties to be marketed not just locally, but globally which is ideal for attracting buyers or investors.
3. Professional Presentation
Each Matterport scan creates a detailed, interactive 3D model complete with floor plans and a unique "dollhouse view." This professional presentation allows buyers to thoroughly explore properties virtually, including visualising spaces without furniture to better understand the layout and potential.
Benefits for Sellers
Faster Sales
Properties with Matterport tours tend to sell faster. Buyers who engage with virtual tours have better access to property dimensions and are typically more committed and motivated, which accelerates the decision-making process.
Better Exposure
3D virtual tours boost visibility and viewer interaction, with potential buyers spending more time exploring property details online. This increased engagement often results in more property inquiries, greater buyer interest, and competitive offers.
Reduced Foot Traffic
Sellers can minimise in-person showings by allowing interested buyers to visit — reducing the inconvenience and time spent preparing the home for multiple viewings.
Benefits for Buyers
Convenience
Buyers can explore multiple properties from the comfort of their own homes, at any time. This is particularly useful for relocating buyers or those with tight schedules.
Informed Decisions
The ability to revisit a property virtually helps buyers make more confident choices. Features like built-in measurements can help with planning furniture layouts or renovations.
Accessibility
Matterport tours are especially valuable for buyers with mobility challenges, offering a fully accessible way to view and evaluate a property.
