3D will continue to become more popular and will be an important part of Real Estate listings in the future. It will be the featured product of my business.

I have been around this forum for about a month and I continue to gather great information that will help me get my business up and running. Thank you all and I look forward to being an active member of this forum.

I have been on this site for only a week so far and it seems like there is a lot of dislike for the Matterport system.

I am wondering what is the best alternative for doing residential real estate. Should I be looking at a DSLR? Or is a 360 3d camera a better alternative? From what I have read so far I like the 3dVista software.

I assume I will have to get a specialized ISP to host the tours also.

What is the best way to find the right camera and host? What are others on this site using and is there other software and hardware I should be looking at? thanks in advance.

I am so glad I upgraded and got this course. It has changed my business already!

Y'all are so appreciated!
