A recent article in USA Today noted that home buyers are starting to make offers on homes based solely on the virtual tour (this was of course contingent on a walk through). This has exciting implications for homeowners trying to sell in this tough real estate market. I know that my husband are looking for a home right now and if we don’t see pictures or virtual home tours of the interior we won’t even consider it and skip right on past the listing.
Our thought process is that if there aren’t shots and tours of the inside then they are trying to hide something and we just don't have time for that nor do we want to know what that something is. According to the article 80% of home buyers use the internet in some way in their home buying efforts and a virtual tour makes all the difference.

I did the same thing when I was looking for a home. If the listing didn't have a tour then I skipped on to the next listing. It is difficult for me to find time to go and walk through each home. I work and have a child and time is limited. Tours make the home search so much easier. It is easier to find the time to check out a couple homes that I have already viewed tours of then trying to make time to view a lot of homes that I may not be interested in. I wonder why there are tours of only some homes and not others? Is the Realtor trying to hide something?
