Is Real State people interested in Matterport 3D for listings?

Question

Need to raise some money to star investment in real state. Thinking on a side job to increment income. Came across Matterport and the use of it for listings, rehab contractors and many more. Just wonder if I’ll be able to find a good market for 3D virtual tours, HD pictures, 3D models and many other services and products that this technology offer. Is the real state companies or agents using all this or are they interested in hire this type of services? Thank you all for your honest comments.

Oh you mean the "Virtual Tours" Which are all of the pictures you can scroll through at your own pace, But instead set to some dopey music and if you are really lucky a robotic voice that reads off the public remarks while it goes through? I love em!!   :P

It is usually offered in conjunction with photography services for realtors.  If you can also do photography, you can get a nice business going.  I've used it and like it a lot, my photographer has the equipment.  You do have to do some education because it is new, but it is getting more popular.  Anything is better than those awful slide shows that just take the listing photos and put them to music.  What a waste!

Well I’m not a real estate agent, trying to learn, but if you offer me that extra marketing tools I’ll absolutely go with you if I’m selling my property instead other brokers. I think every property has its value, otherwise why you even want to take that listing?. Now with regard of price, well how much you value your time? Would you think you can have better possible buyers that really are interested in that property after virtually touring it instead of having a lot of showings just to find out they don’t like your property after seeing it because in the pictures looks different than the real life? Anyhow, luckily is not a set value for everyone that does Matterport jobs. So me personally think price has to be according to the size of property and value of the area. What do you think?

Hi Juan!

I love the concept of Matterport, but it is very pricey. My Broker affiliated with a photographer that can provide photos, video walkthrough as well as drone view still at a lower cost than Matterport would cost. Obviously not every house needs this extra marketing so it's not used for every listing property. If you can incorporate all aspects than definitely worth investing your time in this avenue.

No slideshow, no music and of course no robotic voice. Immersive walkthrough, navigate “inside” properties at your own pace. And use Virtual reality headset to set your self into the 3D space. Here an example, use this link. Note: not my work, just a sample for the Matterport website.
