Three Sixty has always been an early adopter of cutting edge technology, most recently evidenced by our purchase and utilization of the Matterport camera for 3D virtual tours. Still the only agency in East Alabama to consistently offer this technology to clients, Three Sixty team member Emmy Martin Sorrells says that the camera is a real differentiator for the firm – sellers love it because it helps them sell their home faster and is a great keepsake of their previous home. Buyers, especially those coming from out of town, love it because they can really get a feel for a home and make a decision about whether to see it before they are even in the area.

As utilization of the Matterport camera has increased, we are finding that it is especially helpful to the property management arm of the company, 360 Management. Sorrells states: “With each vacancy, we are able to capture more and more of our portfolio. Clients are thrilled to be able to see what the rental units really look like, especially parents who are looking to rent or buy a condo for their kids while at college.”
High resolution views of the interior of a property. These tours remain available even after the home sale or purchase has been executed, allowing homeowners a keepsake of their home.
At Three Sixty, we are constantly looking for new ways to use technology in order to make the home buying or selling experience as efficient, effective and enjoyable as possible. It is this innovative mindset that makes us a leader in providing superior service to our clients and helps us in creating an inspired workplace for our staff. This commitment to technology is one of our company’s pillars, which you can read more about by clicking here.
