Barbara Lawlor, president of Baker Real Estate, provided some insight in this month’s Condo Life Magazine. She spoke about how the building industry and home buyers have been impacted by technology. It’s a great read as she is bang on about everything!
Here is a snippet from the article:
Our Toronto condominiums hold so much international interest that some customers from abroad choose a suite via the Internet alone! Computer technology is so sophisticated now, that it’s the next best thing to being there. Builders are including fabulous graphics, renderings, floorplans and virtual tours. In fact, on the website for The Residences at The Ritz-Carlton, Toronto, you will find tours of two model suites that were created digitally, complete with Pat Baker leading the way. As for the buildings themselves, web-users appreciate fly-bys, or virtual 3D renderings of the condominium within the context of its surroundings. The experience is like flying — swooping past the exterior and into the lobby, amenities areas and suites.

In short, the web is now a method for people to pre-qualify themselves as
condominium buyers. Of course, nothing replaces the tactile experience of entering
a sales centre and touring a model suite — but remember because of technology,
the world is getting smaller by the minute. Our Toronto condominiums hold so
much international interest that some customers from abroad choose a suite via the
Internet alone! Our Baker site also lists buildings available in the United States and
other countries, so this international
convenience works both ways.

For those who missed the BILD (Building Industry and Land Development Association) presentation a few weeks back, we just posted our PowerPoint presentation.
