We are thrilled to announce the launch of virtual property tours on UniRooms. This new feature allows property owners to showcase their accommodations through immersive 360-degree tours and video walkthroughs, making it easier than ever for students to explore properties from anywhere in the world.
Why Virtual Tours Matter
In today's digital age, students increasingly expect to be able to thoroughly research properties online before committing to in-person viewings. Virtual tours bridge the gap between online browsing and physical visits, providing an immersive experience that photos alone cannot deliver. This is especially valuable for international students or those relocating from other regions of Ghana who cannot easily visit properties in person multiple times.
How It Works for Property Owners
Adding virtual tours to your listing is simple. You can upload 360-degree photos taken with specialized cameras or smartphones equipped with panoramic photo capabilities, or you can upload video walkthroughs recorded with standard cameras or smartphones. Our platform supports multiple formats and provides tools to organize your virtual tour for optimal viewing. Premium listings can feature virtual tours prominently, giving you even greater visibility.
Benefits for Students
Students can now explore properties at their own pace, revisiting rooms and areas as many times as needed. The virtual tours provide a realistic sense of space, layout, and ambiance that traditional photos cannot match. This helps students narrow down their options more effectively and feel more confident about properties before scheduling in-person viewings, saving time and transportation costs.
Getting Started
Property owners can access the virtual tour feature from their listing dashboard. We have created comprehensive guides and tutorials to help you create professional-quality virtual tours even without expensive equipment. Our support team is also available to answer questions and provide technical assistance. Students can filter search results to show only properties with virtual tours available.
Virtual property tours represent a significant step forward in making the student housing search more efficient and transparent. We encourage all property owners to take advantage of this feature to stand out from the competition and attract more qualified inquiries. Students benefit from a richer browsing experience that helps them make more informed decisions. This is just one of many innovations we are bringing to UniRooms to improve the housing experience for everyone.
