Tour Prep
Tour Preparation in the San Antonio area;
Getting setup and ready for your interactive San Antonio 360 virtual tour is very important when marketing properties online. Remember that a 360 virtual tour will filter out many home shoppers and unnecessary cleanups so doing a great job on the first pass will certainly pay off in the end.
Virtual Tour Preparedness Suggestions:
Outdoors for a San Antonio Virtual Tour;
An example of a clean yard:
Spruce up your garden and lawn; trim shrubbery if necessary.
Yard and patio should be neat; outdoor furniture should be in good shape.
Mow the lawn; make sure the driveway & entryway are free of clutter (toys, bikes, etc.)
Winter - keep the sidewalks Oak and other tree leaves.
Living Areas:

TO 
Put essential items used daily in a small box that can be stored away.
Close toilet lid and empty the garbage.
Clean mirrors & glass surfaces.
Hang towels neatly from towel bar.
Overall/General:
Check the basics around the house (indoors & out). It takes just a minute to make sure the house is clutter-free and all is in order.
Turn on as many lights as you can when the photographer arrives.
Try not to be in the room the photographer is photographing as you may end up in the photo.
The photographer cannot:
Move furniture
Clean or dust
Move garbage
Pick up/move clutter (toys, dirty dishes, dog toys, etc.)
The home MUST be ready for the photographer when he/she arrives. Upon arrival our photographers can wait no longer than 10 minutes for additional home preparations. If a wait longer than this must happen we will have to move on to our next scheduled appointment and the virtual tour will be rescheduled. If this happens a rescheduling fee of $20.00 will apply.
Remember that a virtual tour by alamoareavirtualtours is the same as showing your house to a possible buyer, except you don't have to keep it as clean 24/7 but people will see it that way 24/7.
