Fees Associated With Matterport-Technical Files14080

Hi Everyone,

I am new here and live in the U.S.

I am about to purchase a Matterport Pro2 to start a small side business. I have called all the realtors in my area and I am getting great feedback.

My question is in regards to all costs associated with Matterport services.

Can you guys verify I am not missing anything below?

$69/Month-Professional Plan
-25 Active Spaces
-I ONLY GET CHARGED FOR PROCESSING IF I GO ABOVE 100 SCANS
-ANYTHING OVER 100 SCANS I AM CHARGED $38/SPACE
-$14.99 PER SPACE IF I WANT A FLOOR PLAN
-$14.99 PER GOOGLE STREET VIEW
-$49 FOR MATTERPACK FILES-WHAT ARE THEY?
-$19 FOR AN EXTRA 50 SPACES IF I GO ABOVE MY 25

So all in all its looking like if I utilize my plan to its maximum I will be paying roughly a maximum of:

$69/Month-PLAN
$374.75/Month-Floor plan @ $14.99x25spaces
$374.75/MONTH-Google St. View @$14.99x25spaces

Total of $818.50 pending what the technical files are...?

Am I missing any charges? Thank you all for any knowledge you can provide me. I am just trying to figure out how much I will be paying out per month. I have been searching online and on YouTube and found nothing compared to the amount of information in this forum.

THANK YOU SO MUCH

Welcome to the WGAN Forum. Glad you found us.

And, thank you for your detailed post.

While I work on a reply to answer your questions:

1. Are you new to residential real estate?
2. What are you/were you doing before residential real estate?

thanks,

Dan

1. There is a BIG DIFFERENCE in "good feedback" and asking for the order.
2. Yes. Matterport Professional Cloud Pricing is $69/Month with 25 active spaces
3. With Matterport New Pricing (since 2019), there is no charge for processing; even above 100 scans.
4. Yes. $14.99 per Matterport 3D Tour for ordering 2D schematic floor plans
5. Yes. $14.99 per Matterport 3D Tour to publish to Google Street View. (Sometimes Matterport offers at no charge.)
6. It's super-unlikely that you will ever need to order a Matterport MatterPak for residential real estate listings. Matterport MatterPaks are typically needed for "As-Builts" for renovation projects. Architects and General Contractors are examples of prospects that would find this solution helpful.
7. $19 for an extra 50 spaces only applies to Matterport Classic Pricing Plans (2019 and before). If/when you need additional active Matterport Tours, the next Matterport Pricing Tier is 50 active spaces at $129 per month.
8. Think of Matterport hosting as a fixed cost and 2D Schematic Floor Plans and Google Street View as variable pricing that are a cost of offering these services as Add Ons.

Before you buy a Matterport Pro2 3D Camera, please see my next post.

Best,

Dan

Hi Dan,

I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your information sir. I am a project manager with Lamar advertising and I am interested in this field because I studied geographical information systems in college and I was a information system technician in the U.S. Navy. I am looking for a side business as I’ve tried to start a few in the last eight years. Thank you so much sir for your post I really can’t tell you how much I appreciate you.

Thank you for the backstory and for your military service.

Since you are just starting out - and have no expertise in residential real estate - I recommend that BEFORE you buy a Matterport Pro2 3D Camera, you buy Real Estate Photographer Pro Course: (Watch this free on-demand webinar first to get a taste)

Save 70 Percent on Real Estate Photographer Pro Course

Using this WGAN Affiliate Link for Real Estate Photographer Pro Course - with the coupon code - WEGETAROUNDNETWORK - see if one of these codes is still working and gets a bigger discount: NEWYEARSEVE or BFWGAN

You will succeed faster with Real Estate Photographer Pro Course. (The real estate agents want photos first, then video and then Virtual Tours. The market is much, much bigger for real estate photo shoots. Most real estate photographers offer Matterport as an Add On. It's not 100 percent of their business. Plus, when you take this course, you will see why a Ricoh Theta Z1 ($1,000) would make sense for Matterport for residential real estate (unless you are interested in Matterport meets GIS - which can come latter). While the WGAN Community will tell you the quality of the Pro2 is superior to the Ricoh Theta Z1, the Ricoh Theta Z1 is good enough so that you can offer your virtual tours at a competitive price point (much faster workflow).

Since you have a geeky background, I could imagine that you will still buy the Matterport Pro2 3D Camera against my advice:

Are you thinking about buying a Matterport Pro2 Camera for the first time?

Before you by a Matterport Pro2 3D Camera, please research other 3D/360 virtual tour platforms such as:

Asteroom
EyeSpy360
InsideMaps
Metareal Stage
Nodalview

All these platforms can be shot with a Ricoh Theta Z1. Plus, you can shoot the tours much faster than a Matterport tour (and cost far less).

Please see my WGAN Forum post:

Free WGAN Cheat Sheet: Which Virtual Tour Platform is Best (for Me)?

If you only want to do virtual tours, buy this course first:

Virtual Tour Pro Course by Ben Claremont with WGAN Coupon Code: WGANVTP

Now that I have confused you about the two courses above:

Virtual Tour Pro Course versus Real Estate Photographer Pro Course

What follow-up questions do you have?

Best,

Dan

Thank you. It's likely that others reading this have same/similar questions.

So, please do post your follow-up questions.
