The most commonly used is Augmented Reality (AR) because it can be easily accessed with smartphones while Virtual Reality (VR) requires a headset. Simply put, AR overlays digital information onto the real world, while VR completely immerses the user in a digital environment.
Internet of Things (IoT)
This refers to objects connected with electronic sensors, software and other required technology to facilitate communication amongst them. This technology allows for buildings to be interconnected with smart homes remote features operation like security systems, lighting control, etc. Smart homes provide easy access to its functionalities to be controlled and monitored remotely.

These technology tools make it easier for realtors and property managers to process information on market trends, property value as well as project futuristic data.
It can also be used to schedule inspection visits, provide instant responses to customer queries, and conduct virtual tours to facilitate better customer experience.
3D Modelling And Animations
3D modeling refers to the representation of objects in 3D dimension to make it look realistic. D models are used to create 3D animations. This technology tool is used in the real estate sector to create building construction templates and project its final results.
Drones and Aerial Imagery
These technology tools are used to capture high resolution images and videos through remote operations. It is used in the real estate sector to capture images and videos of vast undeveloped land and high buildings. It can also be used to inspect property locations and conditions in real time.
Cyber Security
This technology tool is used to create protective measures to real estate properties using encryption, access controls, and data backups. This tool is especially necessary for smart homes technology since it can be controlled remotely.
