Homebuying Technology
Purchasing a home is rarely a quick or easy process, but the right technology can simplify almost every stage of homebuying.
Not only can tech help you in your home search, connecting you to listings that meet your needs and budget, but it can also ease other parts of the journey - often saving you time, money and energy.
Are you curious about how you can use technology to your advantage as a homebuyer? Here are some options to explore.
1. Videos and Virtual Tours:
You’ve probably seen videos on listings in recent years. They may include full video tours of the home, aerial drone tours, or even straightforward commercials for a property. You can use these videos to vet listings and ensure you’re putting your time and energy toward homes that suit your needs.
2. 3D Tours and Walk-Throughs:
3D tours and clickable walk-throughs are other popular features you’ll find on some home listings. They allow you to virtually walk through a home’s floor plan from your computer screen or mobile device.
3. Virtual Staging:
Virtual staging tools can help agents fill a property with furniture and other design elements for listing photos. This can help you better envision what’s possible in a space - especially one that’s poorly decorated or empty.
4. Remote Notaries, eClosings, and eSigning:
Technologies for eSignatures, eClosing and remote notary services allow you to complete the closing process digitally, no matter where you are. They can be great tools if you’re buying from far away and can’t be on-site for closing day.
Now, despite these super ideas to screen home opportunities, there is still nothing better than 'personally viewing' the property. Let's use technology and reality together. We're here for you. Please reach out when you're comfortable.
