Video & 3D Tours for Your Flat-Fee MLS Listing
Turn your MLStown flat-fee MLS listing into a 24/7 open house. Choose a professional video walkthrough or an immersive 3D tour to help buyers pre-qualify themselves before they ever schedule a showing.
Available as an add-on for MLStown flat-fee MLS listings in select Chicago and Illinois markets. We’ll confirm availability for your address before scheduling.
Why add a tour to your MLS listing?
Professional tours give buyers a better sense of space, movement, and “feel” than photos alone. They also help filter out casual lookers and attract buyers who already know your home fits their needs.
Stand out in crowded search results
Most listings still rely on photos only. When your MLS listing includes a video walkthrough or 3D tour, buyers are more likely to click, stay on the page, and remember your property.
Pre-qualify buyers before they arrive
Tours help buyers rule out homes that are not a fit and get serious about the ones that are. That means fewer “curious” showings and more appointments with motivated buyers.
Use your tour everywhere
You receive a link that can be shared on the MLS (where in the special field it is allowed), with buyer’s agents, on social media, and in email or text conversations with prospects.
How MLStown video & 3D tours work
We keep the process simple. You choose either a Video Walk Through or a 3D Tour, we coordinate the shoot, and you get a polished tour that works hand-in-hand with your MLStown flat-fee MLS listing.
Choose your package
Select either a Video Walk Through or a 3D Tour based on your home’s size, layout, and how immersive you want the experience to be.
Schedule your shoot
We coordinate a time window that works for you. Before the shoot, we provide simple prep tips so your home looks its best on video and in 3D.
We capture and process
A professional comes to your home to capture the footage or 3D scan, then edits and processes the tour into an easy-to-use format.
Tour delivered and linked
You receive a hosted link and simple instructions for adding the tour to your MLStown listing and sharing it with buyers and agents.
Tour packages & pricing
Choose from two simple packages. Both are designed to help you pre-qualify buyers and make your flat-fee MLS listing stand out.

Where your tour appears
Tours are designed to support your MLStown flat-fee MLS listing and make it easier for buyers and agents to experience your property before they schedule a showing.
MLS, listing page and social media
Your Video Walk Through or 3D Tour can be linked from your MLStown listing page and, where the MLS allows, included in virtual tour fields so buyer’s agents can easily access it.
You also receive a hosted link you can share directly with buyers, as well as use in your own social media and email marketing.
Tour FAQs
Common questions sellers ask when deciding between a Video Walk Through and a 3D Tour.
What is the difference between a Video Walk Through and a 3D Tour?
A Video Walk Through is a professionally filmed video that buyers watch start-to-finish, while a 3D Tour lets buyers control where they “walk” inside your home and look around in 360°. Both help pre-qualify buyers; 3D is generally more immersive.
Which package should I choose?
For smaller homes and condos, a Video Walk Through often provides plenty of detail. For larger homes, unique layouts, or properties targeting relocation buyers, a 3D Tour usually gives buyers a better feel for the space.
Do I need professional photos if I order a tour?
It’s strongly recommended. Tours work best when they complement high-quality photos. If you don’t have professional photos yet, ask us about coordinating both at the same time.
Can my tour be used in the MLS?
MRED MLS allows a virtual tour or video link as long as it follows local rules and does not include prohibited branding or contact information. We will guide you on what is allowed in your area.
How long does it take to get my finished tour?
Turnaround times vary by package and volume, but most tours are delivered within a few business days after the shoot. We’ll give you a more precise estimate when we schedule.
Do I own the tour files?
You are licensed to use the tour for marketing your property, subject to the photographer’s or provider’s standard terms. MLS rules require that you only use media you have rights to, and you should not reuse a previous broker’s photos or video without permission.
Add a Video Walk Through or 3D Tour to your MLStown listing
If you already use MLStown for your flat-fee MLS listing, a tour is an easy way to elevate your marketing. It helps buyers understand the layout, builds trust, and supports stronger in-person showings.
