It's a catch-22 - VR owners aren't going to spend a few hundred bucks to list on an unproven site, but in order to prove itself, the site will need some serious capital to invest in development and ADVERTISING.  

Their duties will certainly shift. automation is going to make the buying process far easier and video, VR, 360 cameras and such will make the searching much easier.

Expert I may not be but I manage 6 VR that I also own, remotely, with a day job.Mine are cabins in a very high traffic tourist area. 12 million visitors per year and we’re a 12 month market.

I am very new to the VR business (still in research mode!)

Is anyone using VR headsets with there buyers to help them find properties?

Nothing wrong with having a business expense in running the VR business, and getting appreciation, and getting principal pay down.

All that being said, VR's are not as simple as regular rental for sure...they really don't cash flow well due to the high operating expense, after all you are literally paying for everything!

If you haven't owned a VR before though, I will just say the same thing I tell everyone else...don't expect it to cash flow well if at all and make sure you assign value to the other'perks' of owning it like sharing it with your friends and family and ability to use in the off season.  

Airbnb gets the brunt of my business but I think it has to do with the market my VR's reside in.
