VR Technology in Real Estate Marketing

1 Limited Property Visits: Traditional property viewings are time-consuming and often inconvenient for both buyers and sellers.

2 Visualization Barriers: Buyers struggle to envision themselves in a property based on static images or videos alone.

3 Distance Limitations: Prospective buyers may be geographically distant from the property, making physical visits impractical.

4 High Costs: Developing VR content and hardware setups can be expensive for real estate agencies, especially for smaller firms.

Potential buyers often faced difficulties in visiting properties, whether due to geographical distance, time constraints, or the ongoing challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

1 VR Content Creation: Partnering with VR development firms to create immersive virtual property tours using high-quality 3D models and panoramic views.
