The availability of virtual tours is helpful when selling Highlands NC real estate. While seemingly obvious, a very small percentage of listings include a virtual tour. In fact, a recent article in REALTOR Magazine states that “94% of listings don’t include a virtual tour.” As a result, adding a virtual tour to a listing will set it apart from the competition. Furthermore, choosing a Highlands NC REALTOR with a strong online presence will get a property in front of more buyers.

What is a virtual tour?

A virtual tour allows a buyer to walk through a Highlands NC home for sale from afar. This means that a buyer can experience a home prior to seeing it in person. While it is absolutely important to see a home in person prior to its purchase, this is a valuable first viewing opportunity. A virtual tour allows a buyer to experience the flow of a home, the layout of rooms, and the overall design of a home. A virtual tour is a video walkthrough of a home and some are interactive, allowing a buyer to pause and dive deeper into certain areas or aspects of a home. These tours are available on the website.

Real-time virtual tours

A virtual tour can also be available from a REALTOR. In other words, if a buyer sees a property that he would like to learn more about he can have a REALTOR walk-through and experience it via FaceTime, Skype, or similar apps. This is helpful to see more of a property prior to scheduling an important visit. However, this is not quite the same as a virtual tour filmed by a professional. Yet, this is a great way to see a Highlands NC property and ask questions along the way.
