DALLAS—Less than 10% of commercial listings include an interior photo of the property and less than 50% have complete pricing. Commercial real estate platform Truss and immersive media/virtual reality pioneer Matterport have formed a partnership to provide commercial tenants with a new form of immersive 3D media when touring office spaces remotely to provide more complete information.
The Truss platform transforms the experience and provides office seekers with total cost of occupancy, dimensioned floor plans and interior details at the beginning of the search process. With Matterport's technology, Truss customers will be able to experience full 3D models of properties and understand exactly what it's like to be inside a space.
“We're excited to partner with Truss as they pioneer innovative ways to help companies search for office space,” said Bill Brown, CEO of Matterport. “Our end-to-end solution automates the process of capturing and creating immersive walk-throughs, enabling forward-thinking companies like Truss to deliver a superior experience to their customers.”
And, this partnership is bringing VR and 3D models to Dallas, a milestone in the industry. Prior to this partnership, Dallas tenants had to physically visit office spaces to understand the true dimensions and layout. With Matterport's 3D virtual tours and virtual reality experiences, commercial tenants can now experience spaces in the most immersive way possible, essentially, a remote walk-through of a property.
The first buildings to feature this technology are Peloton Commercial Real Estate's properties in Bank of America Tower, Stream Realty Partner's properties in Trammell Crow Center and CBRE's properties in Thanksgiving Tower.
“Our partnership with Matterport is essentially changing how people can visualize commercial properties,” said Thomas Smith, co-founder of Truss. “Spending time to physically visit office spaces that may or may not be a match is no longer the only option to search for office space. Thanks to Matterport's sophisticated technology, we can now bring the space to tenants.”
Matterport's system allows professionals to navigate immersive 3D and virtual reality versions of real-world spaces on Web, mobile devices and VR headsets. Matterport's new Pro2 camera offers digital single-lens reflex camera-quality photos in addition to 3D virtual tours, VR experiences and dimensionally accurate floor plans. By providing complete information about a property in an immersive online format, tenants shorten the deal cycle significantly.
“Matterport's platform gives people the ability to experience 3D models and remotely 'walk' through properties. Tenants are able see every angle as if they were physically present,” Brown tells GlobeSt.com. “This means tenants are able to determine if the property is a fit, and only go and tour spaces that meet their company's needs, often shortening the deal cycle.”
With the partnership in place, Matterport's service partner network of more than 2,500 photographers will scan more than 2,500 additional listings.
