I really liked his website and channel and was sad to hear that he went into hiatus and sold the Vroomers webpage. But now he seems to be back after a 1 year break. The person he sold the webpage to seems to have dissappeared from the page also.

I noticed his iguide example had a lot fewer scans that i'd typically do.

There will be a rare occasion that he calls but I think that’s when his boss put pressure...

Matterport tours for RE agents & sharing?

5 monthsBuster6070 (298): Agree with what's above. For pricing I would Google real estate photography in your area to see what your competitors rates are for a base line and what services they offer. 6 month contract is good for hosting. That's the average lising agents contract with the seller. If you're using a Pro 3 I would be sure to mention it. I use a pro 2, but have a competitor in my market that use a Theta Z1. My client noticed the difference immediately

Is the Insta360 X4 compatible with Matterport?

DanSmigrod

5 monthsWingman (4519): I do not know if it can be used through the capture app but technically any 360 camera can be used with Matterport through Importing 360. The only problem, it may be quite possible that you take a bunch of 360 photos and it won't work through import because you have not covered enough area to align them in the app. So while it is possible to use any 360 camera and even stitched DSLR/mirrorless shots with Matterport there is a risk that your set...

For us Matterporters this can be a very good situation, if market players suddenly need the best 3D tour technology to stay on par with their competitors.

That's just to tour a home. We're all making 3D virtual tours. Why does anyone need an agreement to go visit a 3D tour of a house they're interested in. We're sitting on the biggest opportunities of our life. We just got to figure out how to make this happen.

And 3d tours are not important to fetch a higher sales price, on the contrary, it is solely because they elevate the home buying experience online exponentially, for buyers. And because they place 100% of potential buyers directly inside a property remotely, on demand, is the #2 reason. The main purpose...
