Virtual property tours now a reality
Australian property seekers are now able to tour properties in virtual reality, with realestate.com.au today launching what it says is Australia’s first VR property app.
The app, available on Google’s mobile VR platform Daydream, will mean Australians can take a walk through their potential next home with users able to inspect properties in minutes rather than having to drive across town.
REA Group Chief Inventor Nigel Dalton said by 2020 most Australians will have VR headsets, and he expects real estate agents to embrace the new tech to create a brand new experience for property seekers.
