More and more prospective buyers are now viewing their property on the Internet, and many will make their inspection shortlist based upon what they see there. Progressively more sellers are now realising the importance that high quality photographs have on the successful sale of their property. Professional photos can mean the difference to being on a buyer’s shortlist or not. I recommend Open2View to all sellers of property on the North Shore… I can’t afford not to.
How Does It Work?
It is as simple as this. An Open2View specialist property photographer will visit the property and take the photographs. After post-production work the images are made available to you on line and the property is listed on Open2View.com. It is then automatically loaded up to www.realestate.co.nz and www.harcourts.co.nz.
The images are available in high resolution print quality for use in all other promotional material, for the Property Press, Bluebook, Harcourts signs and brochures, any print media.
Each property is given a unique ID number to ease buyer identification and for those geeks in the know a QR code. A Quick Response (QR) code is a special 2 dimensional barcode that can be scanned by a mobile phone camera providing a mobile link to the property listing. Woohoo!
Every Hour of Every Day.
Open 2 View also offers features top check and track the activity of the property at any time. You’ll be regularly updated with the number of viewers in a weekly email.
Elevated Pole Photography
Using specially equipped vans Open2View can take images at various heights and locations to suit the property, allowing the viewer to see the home, grounds and views in a single image. In one image they can see the lifestyle your property offers.
Virtual Tours
A virtual tour is a full screen 360degree view of the exterior or interior aspect of your property. Give buyers an online interactive experience; almost the same as if they were physically there! They are a persuasive online marketing tool that will generate higher website traffic. Todays buyers ands sellers want the convenience and timesaving qualities of a virtual tour. If you potential buyer is offshore, a virtual tour is essential! Click here to see a virtual tour.
Twilight Photography
Images are captured using professional equipment and skills around dusk, those moments with stunning light between night and day. Twilight photography is excellent for showcasing exterior and interior views, emphasising the rich colours and dramatic shades of light.
Dusk is the time when most people are at home and twilight photography shows the potential lifestyle of your property and creates a Wow! factor. In this case the headline of 46 Carlisle Road was “Once in a Blue Moon”; the super dusk photography matched the copy for the advertisement. As many people attended the first two open homes with this advertisent as in the previous two months!! Click here to see the advertisement.
Interactive Floorplans
The floorplan of a property is displayed online; you can click on the floorplan to bring up high quality images. This can be either an interior or exterior view. This service includes the measuring, drawing and constructing of a floorplan and making the Floorplan interactive by attaching the professional images taken by Open2View. Here’s the floorplan of 46 Carlisle Road, try placing your mouse on the red dots to see a photograph taken from that position.
