Why the Shift to Unit-Level Tours?
1. Personalized and Detailed Experiences
Today’s prospective residents expect more than general property visuals—they want to see exactly where they will live. Unit-level virtual tours provide precise, realistic representations of each apartment, showing specific layouts, finishes, views, and conditions. This specificity significantly improves customer confidence and accelerates decision-making.
2. Proven Impact on Conversions
Statistics consistently demonstrate the effectiveness of virtual tours. Listings featuring immersive virtual tours attract approximately 87% more views, with visitors spending 5-10 times longer engaging with the content compared to traditional listings. Moreover, about 54% of buyers won't even consider properties without available virtual tours.
3. Growing Industry Standard
The global virtual tour market, valued at around $11 billion in 2024, is expected to skyrocket to $74 billion by 2030, indicating widespread industry adoption. By 2025, virtual tours will likely become standard practice in property listings and leasing processes, according to market research and real estate insights from Forbes.
