Top 3 New Technologies for Land Agents

As the land real estate industry continues to mature, it’s essential to keep up with the ever-changing and nonstop growth of it all. Using the latest technology not only allows you to better help your clients but also makes it easier to communicate with them and get to the closing process even faster. Here are the top three new technologies land agents can use to benefit their clients and their business.

Matterport 3D Virtual Tours

Is there a mesmerizing home on your client’s property that you just can’t seem to describe with words? The ability to tour the entire interior of a home is easily available with this new technology! Matterport, a 3D media technology company, offers a 3D platform consisting of the Matterport Pro 3D Camera, Matterport’s cloud services and the Matterport Web Player. The coolest part of the platform is the camera, which scans a home’s interior, stitches all of the images together and creates a virtual tour of the home! Travel through the home from your phone or computer and experience it all with this technology.

Land Tour 360™

There's nothing worse than a client getting out on a property and realizing it wasn't what they were expecting to see. They spent valuable time looking for the perfect listing online and made time in their busy schedule to go see it in person. And now they can't help but feel a little despair. Fortunately, we’ve got just the tool that alleviates that problem. Land Tour 360™ is our latest technology that allows individuals to tour a property without ever having to step foot on it! Explore the entire property by moving around a 360-degree aerial image of the tract that includes boundaries, as well as pictures and videos taken on the tract that reveal vegetation, bodies of water and even wildlife! Like we like to say, “it’s the new way to tour land!”

HelloSign

This technology doesn’t involve any virtual touring, but it is one of the best tools out there for agents who are always on the go. HelloSign is an electronic signature processing service that allows users to sign, fill out, send and receive documents on a computer, eliminating the need for printing out endless amounts of paper. Securely sign documents that you’ve received or request an electronic signature from your client – it’s seriously that easy.
