In today’s competitive real estate market, it's no longer enough to rely on traditional methods to attract clients. As the industry becomes more digital-first, real estate professionals need to adapt quickly to stand out in an increasingly crowded space. Christina Pappas, a leader at The Keyes Company and the former youngest-ever president of Florida Realtors, and Carlos Iraola, Senior Director of Residential Real Estate at Matterport, share their insights on how agents can break through the noise and capture the attention of potential clients.
Embracing the Power of Digital Marketing
Pappas and Iraola emphasize that real estate agents must leverage digital marketing tools to differentiate themselves and engage potential clients in new, innovative ways. As consumer behaviors continue to shift toward online channels, real estate professionals need to meet their clients where they are—on the internet.
"Agents need to be present on digital platforms where buyers are already searching, and create engaging, informative content that resonates with them," says Pappas. "The key is being proactive in using digital tools to showcase properties and build relationships with clients before they even step foot in the door."
The Role of 3D and Virtual Tours
One of the most powerful tools available today for engaging clients is 3D technology. Matterport, a leader in 3D capture technology, enables real estate agents to offer immersive, virtual tours that allow clients to experience properties remotely. This is especially beneficial for buyers who may not be able to visit properties in person, such as international clients or those located far away.
Iraola stresses the importance of offering virtual tours to not only enhance the customer experience but also to save time and increase efficiency for both agents and clients.
"Virtual tours give prospective buyers a complete view of the property before they decide to schedule a physical visit," Iraola explains.
"This helps agents filter out less serious inquiries and focus on clients who are more likely to make a purchase."
