First Brokerage with the Technology for Listings across the Entire Front Range

BOULDER, Colo., Sept. 23, 2015 — (PRNewswire) —  Maintaining their commitment to providing the best technology and tools for home sellers, 8z Real Estate is excited to announce their new 3D Virtual Tour. 8z is the first residential brokerage in Colorado to provide this technology for listings throughout all of the Front Range markets.

3D Virtual Tours provide an interactive experience beyond the typical Virtual Tours that have been used to market homes for sale.  Rather than watching video footage, or a slideshow, home buyers can explore every angle of the home as if they were walking through it. The camera uses 2D and 3D sensors to take 360 degree scans of a room. Software combines these images to create 3D, dollhouse, and floor plan views of the home.

"This was a significant financial investment, but one that we believe will pay dividends by setting our Realtors and our listings apart. There are few products that capture people's attention like 3D Virtual Tours. Not only do the Virtual Tours set 8z Realtors apart from the competition during a listing appointment, sellers want to share and talk about the novel technology, which is great publicity for a Realtor," explained 8z CEO Lane Hornung. 8z has partnered with professional photographers to offer 3D Virtual Tours exclusively to 8z Realtors. 

8z Realtor Bob Maiocco in Evergreen has received positive feedback about the Virtual Tours from sellers, commenting that, "I have used the 3D Virtual Tour in two listing presentations this week, and I have received great feedback from both families.  One retired couple in their 60's really enjoyed the tour and had no trouble seeing or interacting with it."

The 3D camera and technology is developed by Matterport.  Their cameras have been used across industries, including the construction, insurance, and hospitality industries.
