Why Use Matterport?

The Benefits of Matterport

 

There is no question that the coronavirus brings new considerations into the mix when buying and selling a property. But it’s also true that the future of real estate marketing was in flux long before the pandemic hit. 

 

Open houses were already waning in importance as newer, better virtual tools became available. Now, almost 100% buyers begin the process of finding a new home online, and a majority of them begin their search on YouTube

 

The reason for this is simple: the role of the internet in peoples’ daily lives has simply exploded. As recently as 10 or 20 years ago, home searches usually started with the newspaper or cruising around for yard signs, simply because those were the best places to look for up-to-date information. 

 

That’s all changed now. People have the world at their fingertips. The challenge for buyers is how to narrow down the seemingly limitless options. In the days of endless scrolling, the new challenge for sellers has everything to do with making their listing stand out. 

 

When it comes to luring prospective buyers, there are three things to keep in mind: 

  1. People lead busier lives than ever before
  2. People want immediate results
  3. People want to search from home

 

Especially these days, people want to investigate properties from the comfort of their homes before making the decision to venture out. And there’s no better way to get attract buyers like integrating Matterport tools into your marketing strategy.

The Matterport Appeal 

 

Although Matterport tools are most commonly associated with multinational holding companies like Bershire Hathaway and Fortune 500 real estate firms like Century 21, it is actually one of the most affordable options out there. That’s why Matterport solutions are one of the best kept secrets in the world of real estate. 

 

Benefits of Matterport for Buyers:

  • Time Saving
  • Highly Accessible
  • Immersive and Realistic
  • Safe 

 

While there’s no replacement for the experience of an in-person walk through, there’s also no replacement for Matterport. It offers buyers a sense of comfort and confidence in their search, helping them to narrow down options quickly. 

 

With the dollhouse view, buyers can evaluate floorplans and imagine functioning in the space. With virtual tours, they can visualize daily life and revisit the property as many times as they need. 

 

Matterport tools are also fully compatible with any device, and even offer a flawless experience on mobile phones. Not only does this cut down on the hassle of scheduling a showing, but it also eliminates the frustration of investing time and effort into a property only to discover that it isn’t to their liking at all. 

 

There is also the added benefit of minimizing potential exposure to the coronavirus. This ensures that they only visit properties that they feel strongly about.    

 

Why Matterport is the Right Decision for You

 

The Benefits of Matterport for Sellers: 

  • Close faster 
  • Sell higher 
  • More Serious Buyers
  • Efficient
  • Affordable

 

For real estate agents, being caught between buyers and sellers can be a double-edged sword. Research shows that while 88% of buyers expect to be contacted within an hour, only 30% of agents meet those expectations. And although 77% of sellers expect a reply within 30 minutes, only 24% of agents manage to meet those expectations. 

 

But agents lead busy lives too, and their work involves balancing exceptional attention to detail and customer service with the unrealistic expectation that they will be available at a moment’s notice. 

 

Matterport helps to weed out less interested buyers, or buyers that won’t like the property once they take a look inside. This offers agents more time to focus on securing clients, lining up buyers and sellers, and executing the sale.
