Benefits of keeping
the login requirement on the virtual tour. |
|
|
|
1. 80-85% of the
information received is valid and correct. Only a small percentage of
people enter false information. |
|
|
|
2. You are able to email
the person back that viewed the tour and thank them for
viewing the property. You can ask them if they would like to
schedule a private showing or ask them to send you feedback
about the property. |
|
|
|
3. Online virtual tour
views are now as important as an open house. You require
people to login at an open house. This should be considered
the same and the information you received should be used in
the same way. |
|
|
|
4. You can use the
information to send the viewer a list of other properties
that you have listed or that are for sale in the same
neighborhood. If they are not interested in your listing
maybe you will be able to sell them something else in the
area. |
|
|
|
5. You can add the names
and email addresses to your contact list. Send them monthly
news letters or property updates. |
|
|
|
6. If the price of the
home changes you can go back and email everyone that has
viewed the home and inform them of the new listing price.
This might get the person to take another look at your
listing. |
|
|
|
7. If the home receives
updating or a new paint job during the time you have it
listed you are able to go back and email everyone and let
them know. This also might get the person to take another
look at your listing. |
|
|
|
8. You are able to print
out the guest log each month to show your clients. Since
virtual tours are now as important as having an open house
it is important to show your clients that people are viewing
the home online and that you are marketing the property.
Having this list and information will help support you
if you must advise your clients to consider a price
reduction. |
|
|
|
9. You are able to print
the list and take a copy with you when you go on listing
appointments. Show your new client the information you
receive when you do a virtual tour and tell them how you
will use the information you receive to sell the home if
they give you the listing. |
|
|
|
Most important thing to
consider before removing the login |
|
People that are interested in the property will login. If
they do not login they may not interested anyway. More
people may view the property if you take the login off,
however you will loose all of the above benefits and you can
not go back and get the information once its gone.
If you lose the listing
(It's Your Advertising Dollars)
If your clients decide to drop or pull the listing and then
the homes sells right after - you will be able to view the
login page and see if the person that bought the property
viewed the virtual tour while you had it listed. If they did
view the tour and then they buy the home after you no longer
have the listing you may be able to collect your commission. |

Our Advice |
|
If you choose to remove the login requirement we will have
it removed right away. Our advice would be to talk it over
with the home owners and let them know the benefits of
having it and of not having it. If they decide to lower the
price or remodel the home at any time you will not be able
to go back and contact everyone that has viewed the property
and let them know.
If you are NOT going to contact each person that views
the property we recommend removing the login requirement.
