The Indian real estate landscape is undergoing a significant transformation due to virtual home tours. The era of visiting to make a purchase decision is rapidly fading. Virtual home tours gained immense popularity, enabling buyers to explore properties both remotely and online. Once considered a luxury, these tours have now become a standard, revolutionising the process of discovering, evaluating, and selecting homes. Property hunting in 2025 now begins on a screen, whether in big metropolises like Bengaluru and Mumbai or in emerging markets like Indore and Coimbatore. The dynamic and advanced Indian economy enables technology and real estate to live peacefully. It represents a shift towards a quicker, wiser, and more inclusive home-buying process. Among the factors that contribute to its growing popularity are:

1. Easy access:

The newest trend in Indian real estate is convenience. In both residential and commercial real estate, it is gradually but surely becoming more noticeable. It is a gem in the fast-paced 2025 way of life. It is the current necessity and is welcomed by both builders and prospective purchasers. It is now feasible to view a property from any location in the world thanks to the use of virtual technologies like AI and VR. It can be accessed from anywhere in the world, around the clock. It has become the ideal choice for older buyers, NRI investors, and working professionals.  It is a win-win situation for builders like Shravan Gupta, MGF Group. Now, a builder can show a buyer or investor a model of the house that is completely furnished. Additionally, it is essential for increasing real estate sales through digital channels.

2. Advantageous for builders:

Virtual home tours greatly benefit builders such as Shravan Gupta, MGF Group. It showcases the upcoming and completed projects from anywhere in the world. It is possible to have a 360 aerial view of the property as well as an inner view of the apartments. This is crucial for increasing the builder’s visibility among the masses and broadening their worldwide reach. Both HNI and NRI clients will find this very appealing. The popularity of Indian real estate has increased due to the country’s economy’s worldwide exposure. The world is watching Indian real estate development.  These days, builders can complete transactions without the buyer ever visiting the property. Additionally, use VR simulations and 3D walkthroughs to highlight pre-launch or under-construction projects, securing reservations and generating early interest before physical models are ready. Smart recommendations are now feasible; integrated AI can make suggestions increasing the likelihood of upselling by using user behaviour to determine comparable units, upgrades, or payment plans. For both new investors and builders, now is the ideal moment to recommend virtual home tours. The real picture of the developing Indian economy and real estate market is this new reality.
