The real estate market is always undergoing changes, so to keep up with the times we have to embrace new technologies. Which technologies should we be taking advantage of? How can we use virtual reality to our benefit and is it really something we should be investing in? In this episode, producer and 2019 co-host Matt Johnson joins us to discuss the possibilities for virtual reality use in real estate.

Takeaways + Tactics

  • Stay ahead of the curve. The future consumer will demand a virtual reality experience, so get involved in VR while it\\u2019s still under-utilized by other agents.
  • Use VR to show buyers properties that haven\\u2019t been completed yet. Very few people can look at a swatch of flooring or finishes and visualize the finished product - use VR to help them visualize the finished property.
  • To protect our commission percentage, we have to go the extra mile by offering a specialized service like VR. Don\\u2019t lose out on great results while trying to save money.
