Is my market oversaturated with Matterport Service Providers?

DanSmigrod

17 hoursimmersivespaces (532): To fairly answer that question, we would have to know more about the market you are working in. If there are only 50 new qualified listings in your area per month, and there are 100 Matterport Service Providers, then the answer is obviously yes, it is oversaturated. But there are a lot of variables that come into play, such as, other services you offer, your brand recognition, etc. We do extensive research with our customers on a continual...

3 daysHome3D (64): For MSPs who are not professional photographers (not skilled in shooting RAW, Lightroom, Photoshop...) stills pulled from MP are a great option. I'd also propose that for very low budget properties, shooting MP and delivering its stills for MLS use are an upgrade over just mid-quality stills, without MP. That being said, MP stills do not compare with a skilled photographer's work with a DLSR. Maybe someday but not today. But I'm encouraging...
