Drones for Viewings
Before the pandemic, virtual property tours were seen as an exorbitant nice-to-have but non-essential promotional tool that should be saved for higher-end property listings with a reasonable profitability. Yet, technology has progressed dramatically in recent years, allowing for the creation of high-quality output which is much more convenient and practical for properties of any size and budget.
Virtual viewings are reducing the prices of marketing, viewings, transport and making it easier to view more properties in a day. This can lead to bigger profits for these estate agents using this technology.
Virtual viewings are any tours that are provided online either video or 3D 360-degree walkthroughs. The virtual home viewings carried the government’s guideline that viewings be made digitally whenever feasible and that clients should be seeing the property in person just when they are serious about making a bid. Numerous organisations rapidly used virtual viewings within their digital marketing strategies. This was the easiest method for them to ensure their ability to work continued.
Meanwhile, through creative marketing, drones are also adopted to enhance virtual property viewing experience. Drone images and video recording are an ideal way to feature a property, its façade, and surrounding area in vivid detail. Drones offer a first-person perspective, giving prospective buyers to appreciate the place as if they were physically onsite. For people moving to a new city or buying a second home, the shots are very important because it gives them a better look at the whole house. Also, the use of aerial imagery allows clients to obtain a perspective of the whole environment rather than simply the home itself.
Drones for viewings is a more flawless virtual tour experience that keeps the client in touch. Furthermore, in the agent’s perspective, there will be less work required in touring the property, which results in even less tapping, sliding, scrolling, and etc. You just present your clients with the completed drone footage, they press watch, and then they are carried from spot to spot with no difficulty in the surroundings.
Using Drone footage can show potential buyers how close the local amenities are, how far to the school, road in and out and can offer a 360 degree aerial view of the property and surrounding areas to assist buyers and investors.
