Bespoke Virtual Tours
A Virtual Tour allows you to show off the interior and exterior of your care home to prospective care seekers, ensuring future residents and their families have a complete idea of what the facilities and the layout of the home are like, and it’s a great tool to show off brand new homes.
We have considerable experience and are comfortable filming all types and sizes of homes, whether it be working around the completion schedules for new build homes, or the staff and residents for already occupied homes.
Promotional Videos
Video content is unmatched in its ability to deliver your brand and individual homes to all interested parties. We work with you to create a cinematic experience that paints a picture for prospective care seekers.
Our team can capture a combination of interior and exterior facilities footage, staff interviews and stunning drone filming, providing you with a bank of footage to achieve all of your content objectives moving forward. From care home specific promotional videos, brand videos and social media edits, we can utilise this footage to match your desired content message.
Photography
On our videography and virtual tour filming days, we also offer professional photography as an optional extra, generating the maximum content from a single visit to your home.
Photography forms the basis of your brand and your home’s online presence, and we can ensure you have the professional standard imagery for you to present your homes in the best possible light wherever they are showcased.
From one visit, we can capture the interior and exterior facilities of your home, staff headshots and resident interactions, along with stunning drone imagery of the home and grounds.
WHY HAVE VIRTUAL TOURS FOR STUDENT HMOS
THE MESSY HOUSE FACTOR
First impressions matter, and expecting existing students to keep a clean house for a viewing at short notice is unrealistic. Film the house at it’s best, and you never have this problem.
NO MORE WASTED VIEWINGS
Tired of students walking through the door of a viewing . A virtual tour allows you to qualify all leads, so you are only showing around realistic prospects.
NO MORE REPEAT VIEWINGS
If a group want to double check a property, or part of the group missed the viewing altogether, a virtual tour can.
BETTER RELATIONSHIP WITH TENANTS
Students don’t like letting agents showing people around their house, the less you can cause this inconvenience, the better your relationship will be.
24/7 VIEWINGS
Your customers can be viewing your properties from anywhere at any time.
INSURANCE
Serious damage caused to the property by students or a major accident? No problem, you have a detailed inventory to easily look back on for insurance purposes.

WHY HAVE VIRTUAL TOURS FOR PBSA
INTERNATIONAL AUDIENCE
Over 20% of the students in the UK are international, and the majority of these will live in a PBSA block at some point. Having a virtual tour can help engage with this audience, who want a guarantee of the quality of their accommodation, and also overcome the geographical boundaries to them viewing the property.
ROI
A PBSA block may only have a handful of room types and social areas that can represent 100s of potential student tenants. Getting exceptional content for these individual room types can achieve exceptional return on investment, by helping to let.
UK DOMESTIC CLEARING
During university clearing, many students don’t get the opportunity to visit the university they end up going to, this includes their potential accommodation. A virtual tour representing the rooms still available to these clearing students allows them to make the most informed choice possible on their future accommodation, and puts you ahead of competitors who don't have this offering.

We work directly with your central property management team to deliver services across your entire property portfolio, which can then be fed directly into your central property team.
Our services include creating virtual tours for internal us, drone surveying, staff photography and even store audits. Furthermore, we’ve created a bespoke content dashboard which you can use to host, access and utilise this content that’s available to all relevant parties within your company.
We’ve saved our partners thousands of pounds and countless days travelling between stores for unnecessary meetings, or hiring dozens of individual contractors across the country. In short, we are your partner for a wide range of your property content requirements.

WHY HAVE a VIRTUAL TOURS?
24/7 OPEN HOUSE
The ability to have a 24/7 open house for prospective buyers and renters allows agents to operate in a way they have never before been able to. Potential renters and buyers can view your properties in an immersive format from anywhere in the world at any time.
REMOVES GEOGRAPHICAL BARRIERS
Potential Buyers and Renters can be put off based on the distance they have to travel for an initial viewing, and might never get to this first action simply deposit initial interest. Having a virtual tour overcomes this initial barrier to entry, as they can be confident enough about their interest in a property to commit the time and money to physically view the property.
REDUCE WASTED OR REPEAT VIEWINGS
Having virtual tours on property listings can give you up to 80% more qualified leads, which can hugely reduce wasted or repeat viewings from parties that either wouldn’t have been interested in the property had they known what it looked like, or want to revisit to see something they may have missed. Having a virtual tour saves time and considerable effort for the vendor, the prospective buyer, and above all the agent.
STAND OUT FROM YOUR COMPETITORS
With more and more competition, especially in the online agent forum, it’s increasingly important for your agency to stand out within its market. Offering a viewing service that your competitors don’t, puts you at an advantage right off the bat, and time and time again, we’ve seen innovation trump reputation in the agency market.
