With the definition of ‘normal’ changing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, technology has provided unique solutions for everyday problems. Everyone is now connected virtually and this change has permeated into the realty sector as well. Buying a house is usually a very in-person experience from start to end, however, social distancing norms and frequent lockdowns have made it hard for buyers and sellers to interact. The real estate industry has thus adapted to tech-based solutions in order to provide buyers with personalised and virtual real-life experiences that can help make their buying decision easier.
