Cushman & Wakefield Japan Offers 3D Virtual Property Tours
TOKYO, Sept. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

Cushman & Wakefield Japan has introduced Matterport's 3D virtualization tool to 
provide first-class property assessment and enhanced property marketing 
services. The use of this virtualization tool transpired from a global 
agreement that Cushman & Wakefield signed with Matterport, Inc. (Nasdaq: MTTR) 
last year, which enabled the company to offer clients a turnkey solution to 
scan commercial properties in 3D across its footprint.

Matterport's AI driven visualization technology scans an existing space and 
reproduces it in digital form. This "digital twin" is a versatile asset within 
the commercial real estate industry, including in providing virtual tours of 
properties with detailed floor plans and a "dollhouse view", which provides 
prospective buyers and tenants with a dimensionally accurate and immersive view 
into a space. According to Matterport, 3D virtual tours increase audience 
engagement by over 300% in comparison to 2D imagery. The technology helps in 
making better informed decisions by providing a multi-dimensional view of the 
venue, enabling more effective property inspection and marketing of assets. 

Cushman & Wakefield's Leasing Management Services in Japan is offering the 
Matterport 3D virtual experience across all its retained properties. Using 
Matterport, the Project Management team is also now able to help clients 
monitor the progress of their projects and access the digital twin online from 
anywhere, and at any time regardless of property or audience location. 
Matterport is a true virtual solution and enables Cushman & Wakefield to 
provide property inspections that keep clients and professionals safe during 
this unprecedented pandemic, eliminating the need to be present in the space 
physically. Because of this, Cushman & Wakefield is also able to deliver 
additional benefits to clients such as reduced travel and fewer visits to a 
property, producing overall time and cost savings which will remain relevant 
beyond the pandemic. 

Howard Xiao, Japan Country Manager at Matterport, commented: "Japan's 
commercial real estate sector is one of the most competitive, so firms must 
constantly differentiate to win clients. Matterport's technology enables agents 
to achieve an edge through authentic, immersive and navigable 3D experiences. 
By leveraging Matterport's powerful technology and insights, Cushman & 
Wakefield is positioning itself at the forefront of the sector's ongoing 
transformation, which harnesses technology to drive deeper engagement, analysis 
and understanding of listings. Increasingly, clients are turning to Matterport 
to capture their real estate portfolios due to the significant add-on benefits 
realized. We are delighted to be selected by Cushman & Wakefield Japan for all 
of their Leasing Management mandates."

Keiji Kato, Senior Director, Head of Leasing Advisory Group, Japan, Cushman & 
Wakefield, said, "We were first acquainted with the Matterport platform when we 
were exploring the best way of introducing properties for rent during the 
pandemic. Matterport allows us to conduct high quality virtual tours for our 
clients with its ability to produce a highly photorealistic digital replica of 
the actual physical space. We have now introduced this service across all the 
properties that we lease and manage and it has proven to be very effective in 
differentiating us from our competition. We believe that virtual tours will 
remain necessary even after the pandemic, and we will continue to use this 
platform as one of our key property marketing tools."

Cushman & Wakefield continues to identify and collaborate with strategic 
partners to deliver innovative tools that generate deep insights and create 
value for our clients and has strategic partnerships across its global platform 
with a variety of innovative property technology organizations.
