How to Buy Property without Actually Visiting It

Yes, you read that right! Buyers are now purchasing real estate without even visiting it. This usually happens when people invest in properties in another city and it has been made possible by the introduction of augmented reality and virtual reality in the real estate industry. Now, realtors can sell a property to clients without actually taking them to the property.

How AR and VR is changing the Real Estate selling process?

The conventional form of real estate workflows consist of the following 3 steps:

  • The Realtor provides a long list of properties to the client as per their preferences
  • Explanation and Negotiation
  • Tour of the properties

These three steps help the realtors to convince the client to buy the properties and thus hold significant importance in real estate. Earlier, everything was being done manually. People needed to visit each and every property by themselves and realtors had to explain everything during the tour. This was extremely tiring and time consuming for both the buyer and seller. In fact, sometime if realtors weren’t able to explain everything clearly, and could not convince the client, they eventually ended up losing the deal.

But now, AR and VR have changed everything. Let’s see how:

Property under construction is quite tough to sell because most of the people aren’t able to relate it to their dream house. Most of the time realtors couldn’t explain everything in detail that could match with client’s expectations. But, VR and AR can help them to view how it will look in the future with actual objects. Architectural 3D visualization helps them to see the interior as well as the exterior of the house. Thus AR and VR don’t let you lose any deal.

Virtual Tours also help clients who aren’t able to visit the property by self. Suppose you have a client who wants to move from Delhi to Mumbai and is looking for a house. AR and VR will help you to sell a property without actually visiting the property.

The technology is already transforming the real estate industry, however, realtors need to learn and understand the proper use and implementation. For instance, creation of 3D models of projected structures and the additional digital content along with animated simulation will eventually provide a satisfactory experience to the client and thus they will be more willing to invest in the property.
