Introducing Mobile Friendly Virtual Tours

Virtual tours have become an essential online marketing tool for realtors. With most home searches beginning online and more buyers searching listings on their phones, it’s important that a virtual tour translates well to all devices — computer screens, tablets, iPads and mobile phones. As a virtual video tour provider, we are thrilled to announce some recent changes that will enhance our smart phone users’ experience. Our new mobile-friendly virtual tours make it easy to navigate a stunning 360 degree home view on the go, using any mobile device.

But first, why are mobile-friendly virtual tours so important? Read on to learn the many benefit of going mobile.

 

A Shortcut To Meeting Buyers Wherever They Are

Making it easy for home buyers to view the features of a home anywhere at any time offers agents a huge advantage. A listing with an impressive virtual tour may, in fact, do much of the work of selling a home for you. After all, a buyer who has an excellent idea of what a home has to offer and is excited to view it is a much more qualified prospect.

The key is to ensure that your video tour isn’t just viewable on mobile devices, but that it translates flawlessly to any device. If it takes too long to load, is difficult to navigate or the image resolution is poor, a virtual tour is more of a hindrance than an asset. Many people will move on to the next listing that captures their attention — and if it has a stunning tour they can quickly scan on their phones, you may well have lost a sale.
