Well, hello, everyone. I am Tim Ventura, filling in for Tim and Julie Harris, and welcome back to Casual Friday on Real Estate Coaching Radio.

We are talking about tech, and this week we're talking about 3D virtual tours that Redfin is rolling out for all of their listings, starting on the 28

listings in the Seattle area where Redfin's headquarters is based. Why this topic? Well, all the tech

stories lately seem like they've really started around the Zillow truly a merger, you know, and I don't know,

some other kind of techno politics that involve reshuffling a limited number of online buyer

leads around so that somebody can skim off the margins. Basically, that's what it comes down to,

right? I mean, you know, people are using the Internet more than ever to buy real estate.

I think that we're all aware of that. But at the same time, you know, there's only a certain

amount of people who are interested in buying homes at any given time. And so a lot of this

comes down to reshuffling. And somewhere along the way, it feels like the tech industry just kind of

forgot about the user experience in order to focus on basically just squeezing agents and brokers.

So this story talks about a fundamental improvement to the online buying experience that may, in fact,

actually transform the way people

buy homes online. And that's why I thought it was interesting. Okay, so this is a live show. Our call-in
