Photomontages presented as "virtual tours" by Estate agents

[StiffyByngsDogBartholomew]

Is it just me ? A slide show of all the images is not a tour ! I like browsing RM and I find it super irritating to click on a video just to find the same photos I just viewed on the listing. But set over music, maybe with some kitsch clip art and zooming in, like a year 7 IT project.
can anyone fathom the point ?

Totally agree OP, they really should up their game.

Eg this is what has just made me post this

i don't need all that rubbish, what I would like though is a proper video !

Oh my god that's terrible. You can't actually see any of the house as it's flashing up so quick to be replaced by some inane graphic. I couldn't watch it to the end. Had to switch it off!

Yes really annoying and don’t get me started on the virtual tour which is actually just a drone shot if the area. I also hate those ‘my matterport’ spiny tours where you have to click the arrow, they either make me feel sick or I end up looking at an artexed ceiling.

Also annoying are when the video is a tourist's guide to the area.

I hate those too! Zooming into photos on a slide show doesn't make it a video!

I also hate the ones where you have to click the arrows to move through the house - it all looks really distorted and it's annoying.

I would really much rather a wobbly phone camera walked through the house. Much more useful.

@SausageAndEggSandwich totally agree. I want to see how the rooms are laid out, when I've seen a real video tour it's been really helpful in imagining what could be done with it. I don't care if it's not done by Martin Scorsese

Agree! Was just complaining about it. Same music on every video from the same estate agent too - drives me bonkers.

Yes it is bizarre! Like the emperor's new clothes. Why?
