Video Tours

Video Tours takes the user experience to a whole new level. The system uses video instead of photographs allowing the visitor “walk through” the property and, gives the user a much better understanding of the property as they are brought from room to room, upstairs and down, inside and out.

Video tours generally come with music overlaid, but can have the addition of a voice over explaining key features that invite every customer to take an inside look at what you have to offer.

When the finished video is produced, we supply two methods of viewing. DVD and Online where it can be streamed. The online version is hosted by Real Estate Software, and we can help you add links to your website to play the online version of the video.

Video tours. Price on application.
