Frequently Asked Questions about 360 visual
tours:
| |
- What is a 360 visual tour?
A 360 visual Tour is a tool that allows anyone with a computer
to "immerse" themselves in any environment and
experience it as if they were there. The viewer can move
about in the room and at their will, pan 360 degrees left
or right viewing a complete, seamless, photographic panorama.
The images are created using a high tech digital camera
and lens which captures the entire 360 degree view around
the camera position.

photos?
Order your 360 visual tour or photos directly from our listing
form when you place your listing, or, simply email us at

Your tour includes a 4 professionally photographed panoramic

The cost of your tour is $99. Additional room images can
be added for $20 each. We can create a CD of your tour for
$25 each.

We are based in Ann Arbor and will travel a distance of
20 miles for no charge. a trip charge of $1 per mile (one
way distance) will be added beyond this. To calculate the
mileage charge, go to Yahoo
maps, enter your address, and press "get directions".
Take the distance and subtract 20 miles. This is the miles
charged at $1 per mile.
- How long does it take to film a 360 visual
tour or photo tour?
Typically it takes less than one hour to complete the
filming. We then process the images and upload them to your
listing usually within 48 hours. You or your representative
(18 or older) needs to be present during the filming.
- Can
you host my visual tour taken by another photographer?
Yes, under most circumstances. Contact us for details.
- Benefits to Buyers :
- No wasted trips to unsuitable properties.
- View several potentially suitable properties
and hone in on those that you would like to actually
visit.
- Revisit properties that you have already
viewed, again and again 24/7.
- Use the virtual tour to plan decoration,
use of rooms or home improvements. A CD containing larger
and more detailed panoramas can be purchased as part
of our service.
- If relocating to another area, house
hunting is seriously time consuming and stressful. Huge
amounts of time can be saved by using a 360 visual tour
to compile a short-list of suitable properties to actually
visit allowing you to efficiently plan a trip to the
desired area.
- Benefits to Sellers:
- Avoid dreamers who may not be intent
on buying your home. Narrow down actual visits to serious
potential buyers.

of a simple black and white photograph in the local
press. Viewers can tour all rooms, gardens, and outbuildings
from their own home.
- Prospective purchasers can view 24 hours,
7 days all year round.

virtually tour your property remotely, greatly increasing
the chance of them incorporating an actual visit of
your home into their valuable time schedule when arriving
in the area.

reference or as a keepsake.
