Matterport tours for RE agents & sharing?

23 daysBuster6070 (247): Agree with what's above. For pricing I would Google real estate photography in your area to see what your competitors rates are for a base line and what services they offer. 6 month contract is good for hosting. That's the average lising agents contract with the seller. If you're using a Pro 3 I would be sure to mention it. I use a pro 2, but have a competitor in my market that use a Theta Z1. My client noticed the difference immediately

What is the correct height when using a Matterport Pro2?

JimmyJim

7 monthsGETMYVR (1919): It's a good question. For most bedrooms, the living room and hallways I ahoot about chest level. Once I get in the bathroom I'm probably about 1 ft above the vanity. Also, when you do bathrooms it's good to do a second low shot right into the bathroom. For kitchens I bring it up a little bit higher, 5.5' because everybody wants to see the countertops. When I do 360 scans outside I bring it up about 5 ft. 5 to 6 ft.

8 monthsGETMYVR (1919): So think about this. Right now we have a situation where real estate agents are in an awkward situation having to get a home buyer to sign an agreement or seller. That's just to tour a home. We're all making 3D virtual tours. Why does anyone need an agreement to go visit a 3D tour of a house they're interested in. We're sitting on the biggest opportunities of our life. We just got to figure out how to make this happen.

And 3d tours are not important to fetch a higher sales price, on the contrary, it is solely because they elevate the home buying experience online exponentially, for buyers. And because they place 100% of potential buyers directly inside a property remotely, on demand, is the #2 reason. The main purpose...

How Long for a 2,000 SQ FT (ish) home with Ricoh Theta Z1 on Matterport?

jimfelder

Allocate additional time for setup (initial walk-through, adjusting items/blinds and turning on lights) and take down if that is something you are responsible for. The above estimate assumes that there are no distractions and does include time for additional 360 views.

6 yearsEricLiu (49): Hi All, For 360 photography, dynamic range is a key factor since it can not avoid high contrast scenes by changing the view to take. To enhance dynamic range, after firmware V1.05.17 upgrade, ALETA S2C offers 3 functions: WDR, HDR, and AEB. Here we explain the method of each function. 1. WDR Use the WDR bar to adjust. 0 is the default value. 10 is the strongest effect, and -10 means no effect. ...

6 yearsCarlosFHdz (605): I think the best way to document something long term for that type of project is through 360 photos. All “tours” that are online are “hosted” and that’s where the risk is for long term availability for your specific client. 360 photos can be handled by many applications, saved long term, and they’ll own them, so it’s up to them to keep offline. My 2 cents.

7 yearsGeorgeK (958): I have at times felt a resistance to use Video to promote Matterport, but that spans many small business industries, including Real Estate. This video shows how I "tell a story" and at the same time help my REALTOR Association. This could be a great way to get in front of a lot of Realtors, fast. There are just so may good things that can come out of VIDEO PROMOTION. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wls-Y0WyKk4&t=7s

If they want, they could treat 100 360s as 1 model. They could then have a special player for their Matterport Core 360 that doesn't utilize 3D.

I have convinced buyer agents to get a matterport for a gated community that he wishes he had more listings in. His main competitor has just been there a long time but doesn't use matterport. Now that he has one matterport from a sale he was a buyer agent for he then got a listing there. Now he has two and...

Matterport Syndication to 3rd party sites?

Cindiewozniak

9 yearspirusan (184): All, or at least most of the virtual Tour websites like Tour Factory or Real Tour vision offer syndication. So, if the Realtor is using one of those platforms they are going to ask about syndication. In any case, the most significant and, I would say the only relevant, syndication is done through the local MLS, hands down. Gus

Another issue with MP is you can not blur faces or other details which are strictly enforces when shooting for Google.
