The Sotheby's International Realty Experience
The landscape of how we interact with the world around us is in constant flux; every day, the connections we make with people, the tools we rely on, and even our homes find us utilizing more technology. Our digital touchpoints, the mobile devices, computers, and smart tech that surrounds us, helps us to navigate the world within our lifestyles. Whether it’s setting an important reminder, listening to music, or searching for your next home, it’s impossible to ignore the internet of things.

Matterport Virtual Home Tours
Virtual Reality is a concept that’s found itself leaping from the worlds of Science-Fiction and into our very real lives. As reported by Inman as a leader in this space, the addition of 3D and Virtual Realty (VR) tours to sothebysrealty.com was designed to create an immersive experience, allowing for personal tours of homes around the world. Experience homes online like never before; covered by The Wall Street Journal, John Passerini, global vice president of interactive marketing for Sotheby’s International Realty, details the convenience and experiential depth of using 3D to explore the entire home, or take advantage of the VR experience through a compatible mobile device such as iPhone or Android phones paired with a VR headset.
Both the Sotheby’s International Realty Apple TV app and the VR tours on sothebysrealty.com allow you to experience homes from the comfort of your own – taking you and those with you on a previously impossible journey through homes all over the world.
