How it works

From the first call to the sales gallery

We work in six steps. Each ends with a visible output, and we decide on the next one together.

  1. 01

    Discovery call

    We talk through the project, target buyers, sales timeline and budget, and decide together which formats will help sales most.

    Output: Scope, timeline and quote
  2. 02

    Collecting project data

    Architectural drawings (DWG, PDF), any existing 3D model (Revit, ArchiCAD, SketchUp, 3ds Max), site plan, material and colour schedule, unit types and area tables.

    Output: Data set and gap list
  3. 03

    3D analysis of the area

    We place the plot in its real location using photoreal 3D city data, then analyse the sun path through the year, shadows, the view from each floor and access. Where needed, we capture the immediate surroundings with drone photogrammetry.

    Output: Location, sun and view analysis
  4. 04

    Modelling and design

    The building, landscape and interiors are built in Unreal Engine, using your material schedule or our proposal. On request the scene becomes explorable like a game: free walking, floor selection, material and time-of-day changes.

    Output: Approved 3D scene
  5. 05

    Presentation format

    Choose a film and render set, a web 3D presentation, a game-like interactive app, VR or a sales-gallery kiosk. All of them come from the same model.

    Output: Delivery in the chosen formats
  6. 06

    Revisions, delivery and sales support

    You see, comment on and approve each stage in the Dessoci app. After delivery we support your sales team with the website, ads and social media.

    Output: Sales-ready content pack

Impact on sales

Buyers decide on what they can see

The hardest part of selling off-plan is asking buyers to imagine a home that doesn’t exist yet. Realistic visualization takes that burden off them.

Shows instead of asking buyers to imagine

Off-plan buyers can’t see the finished home. Photoreal visuals close that gap, so decisions rest on what they see rather than guesswork.

Helps buyers pick the right unit faster

View, sunlight and floor height are visible on screen, so “which floor, which side?” gets answered in the sales gallery.

Makes remote sales possible

Buyers in other cities or abroad get the same experience from a link, or a guided tour over a video call.

Feeds advertising with strong content

One model yields months of films, stills and vertical videos, so launches, campaigns and social media share the same quality.

Gives the sales team one story

Every agent presents the same deck with the same correct data. Availability updates in one place, so nobody quotes outdated information.

Supports pre-sales and financing

Provides ready, persuasive material for pre-launch campaigns and bank or investor presentations before construction starts.

Guide

About real estate 3D visualization

What is real estate 3D visualization?

Real estate 3D visualization means modelling a project that is not yet built, or still under construction, from its architectural drawings and presenting it at photographic realism. The result is more than a single image: the same 3D model produces exterior and interior renders, launch films that flow like drone footage, 360° panoramas, interactive floor selectors that run in the browser, and VR experiences.

The hardest part of selling off-plan is asking buyers to imagine a home that doesn’t exist yet. A few brochure images don’t answer their real questions: how much light does the living room get through the day? Can you see the sea from the fourth floor? Is the kitchen open to the living room? 3D visualization answers these questions on screen, close to reality.

Why Unreal Engine?

Unreal Engine is the real-time 3D engine used by the game and film industries. Three things make it stand out in architectural visualization:

  • Real-time light: with Lumen, light and shadows update instantly as the sun moves, so sunset or night views don’t require re-rendering the scene from scratch.
  • High detail: Nanite displays façade and furniture detail with millions of polygons without hurting performance.
  • One model, many outputs: the same scene can be packaged as a film, renders, an interactive app and VR. When the project changes, every output updates together.

Why analyse the area in 3D?

An apartment’s value doesn’t come from its interior alone; the view, hours of sunlight, neighbouring buildings and access all affect the decision. That is why we place the plot in its real location using photoreal 3D city data. We analyse the sun path through the year, how shadows move during the day and the view from each floor. Where the immediate surroundings need more detail, we capture them with drone photogrammetry.

This analysis helps project decisions as well as sales: which side of the building is more valuable, which floors stand out for their view and how pricing should be tiered all rest on firmer ground.

Which format for which purpose?

  • Launch film and render set: the quickest starting point for the website, ads, listing portals and social media.
  • Web 3D presentation: buyers open a link to spin the building, pick a floor and browse units and plans. Nothing to install, and it works on phones.
  • Game-like interactive app: in the sales gallery or a remote presentation, buyers walk freely through the apartment and change the time of day and materials. It can also run in the browser via Pixel Streaming.
  • VR: with a headset on, buyers feel ceiling height, room scale and the balcony view at true size, a strong experience for premium projects.
  • Sales-gallery kiosk: a digital scale model on a touch screen, used next to or instead of a physical model, with availability updated remotely.

Sales CRM: keeping the visualization live

Visualization is done once, but sales change every day. The sales CRM keeps one record of which units are available, reserved or sold. When the sales office reserves a unit in the panel, the 3D presentation, the project website and the sales-gallery screen update at the same time, so buyers don’t fall for a unit that’s gone and agents don’t quote an old price.

  • Reservations: each hold records its length and agent; when it expires the unit returns to available automatically.
  • Pricing and payment plans: price lists by floor, aspect and type, campaigns, deposits and instalments are managed in the panel.
  • Leads: enquiries from web forms, WhatsApp and ads land in one list with the unit they want and the channel they came from.
  • Roles and reports: the sales office, partner agencies and management work with different permissions; sales pace and the most-viewed units are reported.

Impact on the sales process

Visualization alone doesn’t guarantee sales; price, location and market conditions still decide. But buyers clearly decide on what they can see. A realistic presentation shortens decision time, makes it easier to choose the right unit, reaches buyers in other cities and abroad, and creates a pool of content for months of advertising. Every member of the sales team presents the same story with the same correct information.

At Dessoci, visualization sits in the same team as your website, ads and social media, so the films and images we produce start working in your sales channels straight away.

FAQ

Common questions

01We only have 2D drawings. Is that enough?

Yes. Architectural drawings (DWG or PDF), sections and elevations are enough to model from. A Revit, ArchiCAD or SketchUp model speeds things up. After the discovery call we send a list of anything missing.

02How long does it take?

It depends on the size of the project, the number of interiors and the formats you choose. Render sets and films are quicker than interactive apps and VR. After the discovery call we give you a staged timeline, and you follow progress in the Dessoci app.

03How is pricing set?

The number of buildings and interiors, the extent of context modelling, film length, interactive features and any VR or kiosk needs set the price. Rather than fixed packages, we scope the work with you and send an itemised quote after the discovery call.

04Does the web 3D presentation work on phones?

Yes. We keep the web presentation light with pre-rendered stills and panoramas, so it opens smoothly on current phones. Free, game-like exploration runs with Unreal on a computer or in the browser via Pixel Streaming.

05What is Pixel Streaming and does it cost extra?

With Pixel Streaming the Unreal app runs on a GPU server in the cloud and reaches the visitor’s browser as video, so even a phone can explore at Unreal quality. Because a server runs for each concurrent visitor, there is a monthly or per-minute hosting cost; we weigh the options with you.

06What do we need for VR?

For most projects a standalone headset such as Meta Quest in the sales gallery is enough. For higher image quality, PC VR connected to a powerful computer is used. We handle the setup and a short training for the sales team.

07Do the surroundings and the view look real?

We place the plot in its real location using photoreal 3D city data, so neighbouring buildings, roads and views are based on reality. If close-up detail is needed, we can capture the surroundings with drone photogrammetry. Interiors are built with the materials and furniture you approve.

08Can the sales CRM work with our existing system?

Yes. The panel can run on its own or connect to your accounting or ERP system, or exchange data via Excel. During setup we import your current price list and sales status and give your team a short training.

09How does availability update in the presentation?

When the sales office reserves or sells a unit in the panel, everything reads from one source, so the 3D presentation, the website and the sales-gallery screen update at the same time. When a reservation expires, the unit returns to available automatically.

10Who owns the usage rights?

You can use the delivered films, images and apps without limit to market your project; usage rights are set out in the contract. We don’t use the work in our own promotion without your approval.
