The Vision: Every Listing should be Previewed-First online.
- Prospective homebuyers should never have to visit a property site unseen. Home-shoppers should be able to preview every listing online, viewing dozens of photos; images of every room and every angle - Virtually touring the property as if they were actually there.
- Sellers should only have to prepare their home for showings when they know the interested buyer has already previewed the home online and has selected their home as one of their top choices.
- The result for real estate professionals? PreviewFirst Virtual Tours streamline the home hunting process - saving massive amounts of time, resulting in increased productivity.
It all sounds simple enough, but until now, virtual tours were just too time intensive, too expensive and let's be honest… the fascination of spinning around in circles wore off years ago. So, how can the vision become a reality?
You Take the Pictures... We'll take it from there.
The concept was originated by Founder & CEO, Steven Carroll. PreviewFirst.com was the first virtual tour company to introduce "user-generated" virtual tours and the industry hasn't been the same since. The plan was to use state of the art technology to create the Ultimate Virtual Tour Experience, accelerate time-to-market and make virtual tours so inexpensive that it would be irresponsible not to create a virtual tour.

What About Professional Photography?
Photography is an art form to be sure, and real estate photography can be much more complicated than one might think. While we encourage agents to take their own photos and we provide all the resources necessary to learn how to shoot well, we also provide professional photography services. Let's face it, sometimes an experienced professional can do things with a camera that the average person can't.
At PreviewFirst.com, only one out of every fifty applicants meet our standards. We are very discriminating in our selection process, and you will find that our photographers are the most qualified in the business.
