1. The world loves virtual reality
South Quay Plaza – one of the tallest buildings in the UK with two 68-story and 36-story towers, have been installed virtual reality technology. Although it is under construction, clients can now explore the model house in the most complete way with unlimited space through VR technology even though they are halfway around the world.
Similarly, The Luma is a high-rise apartment project in Seattle (USA), which had been built in mid-2016, also used this technology. Clients will experience the project through Oculus Rift glass. This device is connected to the computers in the sales office, then guests will be able to visit the entire simulation apartment and the exact images are shown by this automated device.
According to Nick Whitten – Deputy Director of Research of JLL London, VR tools can help clients and brokers save time and money by reducing the trips to the projects. Besides, it helps brokers increase the visitors in a day as well as connect with potential buyers from far away.
However, JLL leaders also acknowledged that the cost of investing in this technology is still a limited point. Whitten estimated that a virtual model for a building costs about 20,000-30,000 pounds, which is not small. They said that investors who are willing to pay the extra cost of installing this technology are adding value to their projects, asserting their class and catching up with the trends.
2. Pioneer real estate business with Virtual Interactive Technology
Along with VR (only allowing users to view apartments in virtual space), Virtual Interactive Technology also applied. From there, clients can have the best vivid experience about the apartment before deciding to buy a home.
Accordingly, clients can see the model houses built with Virtual Interactive Technology. They can even select a floor to experience the view on the balcony and surrounding space or the whole city. Therefore, they make the best decision about which floors and which apartments to buy.
More specifically, homebuyers can interact directly in 3D space to choose the best solution for the apartment. By placing 3D models in virtual space, clients can preview the home interior. If they don’t like it, they can directly repair and change the plan of materials, colors, furniture as well as adjust the light until they find the optimal solution.
In the future, Virtual Interactive Technology will be one of the tools to help us save time, money and energy. It also helps potential clients visit the home and re-enact the future upgrades. This technology will be a game-changing factor for investors and the entire real estate industry in general.
