Virtual Reality Tours

Ben Keehan from

Hi neighbours,

Virtual Reality has been around now for about 3 years and is growing in popularity and now is more affordable than ever thanks to iStaging and kloudpro.

Why is this important? iStagings VR Maker & VR Editor apps, allow subscribers to create VR tours / 3d walkthroughs with their compatible smartphones, unlike other providers that must use expensive cameras (US$2500) . This means the cost has dropped to a level small business can afford, from just $39 per month.

So why would you use VR in business? It allows customers to truly visualise and interact with the business, property, vehicle before a physical viewing. See what it really looks like.

iStaging is now linked to realestate.co.nz so your property marketing can now include the technology without a high price tag. The cost to host a tour is just $39 per month and just $199+GST to create a tour like the ones below.

Better informed buyers make better buying decisions and as you know buyers have never been as informed as they are today, with so much information available from sites like homes.co.nz , property insights and realestate.co.nz and the newcomer oneroof.co.nz
And being able to come to view the property from the comfort of your own sofa makes viewings more productive in real time.

While at a viewing on Saturday, I had a family through a home in Taradale. One of the parties was looking in Havelock North so I grabbed my VR headset and placed him in a house in Havelock without us having to drive over there, we then talked stats, info etc and he seemed very interested. Saves alot of valuable time showing buyers property that they may not like or want to buy.

So if you want the best tools from your agent make sure they offer you iStaging as part of your marketing package, it is one of the best tools you need to make the most of your featured listings.

If you want to learn more about iStaging check out www.kloudpro.nz... and join the training webinars each Wednesday at 11am and 2pm
