Real Estate Media Software Updates – June 2025

Hello RTV Friends & Fans,

We’re turning the page on June and bringing you another set of powerful real estate photography and virtual tour system upgrades designed to streamline your workflows, enhance your marketing capabilities, and make your life easier behind the lens and at the keyboard. From major improvements in our interactive floor plan system to handy new features in the RTV Calendar, Storefront, and Property Websites, this month’s updates are all about saving you time, improving client communication, and helping you shine.

Scroll Down and take a look at what’s new inside your RTV system!

6-30-25 – Floor Plan Editor & Smart Scene Filtering –
We’ve streamlined the Floor Plan Editor with smarter filtering for branded and non-branded scene selections. From within the Floor Plan Editor choose a selection from the dropdown menu entitled “Display Enabled Scenes For”. Depending on your choice, such as the Branded Property Website, all scenes enabled for display on the Branded Property Website from the Media Manager section will be the only scenes displayed for use in the Floor Plan Editor. If you change the dropdown selection to ‘Non-Branded Property Website’, the viewable options will update automatically based on the non-branded toggle selections you have set in the Media Manager. This means faster, more accurate interactive floor plan creation!

6-25-25 – Improved Variant Display on Storefronts – Those of you who currently use “Variants” on your RTV Storefront or have been wanting to create variations of your packages will be pleased to know that we are now displaying “Variants” in a much more appealing format on your RTV Storefront. You can assign a unique photo and description to each variant in your RTV Storefront, providing your customers with a clearer and more engaging buying experience and allowing each variant product to shine on its own. If you’ve been holding off on using variants, now’s the time to jump in.

6-24-25 – Order Action Log Now with Payments – We’ve added payment and partial payment activity to the Order Action Log. It’s easier than ever to track every update (including payments) to an order, all in one place. Just click “View Action Log” from any order’s detail page, and you’ll see the full breakdown.

6-19-25 – Long Special Instructions Support – Some jobs require detailed notes, and now, your calendar can handle them. We’ve expanded the booking system to support extra-long special instructions so nothing important gets cut off. The next time your customers put in a LOT of special order instructions for you, you’ll see a link on your calendar that will lead you to the “Order Details” section of the RTV system, where you can read all your special instructions. This update makes it easier than ever to access all your specific customer requests while on assignment.

6-17-25 – Tap to Map GPS Navigation – You and your photography team will be delighted to know that getting GPS directions to your next photo shoot has just become a lot easier and is now just a tap away. Google Calendar events now include a clickable link to your scheduled appointment address. Tap the address on your mobile device from your Google Calendar, and let your default mapping app guide you directly to your next location. Simple, fast, and incredibly helpful for busy photographers on the go. Enjoy!

6-16-25 – Enhanced PDF Attachments – Do you need to add a seller’s disclosure, floor plan, site survey, or brochure to your production? No problem. You can now upload PDF documents directly to both branded and non-branded Property Websites & virtual tours from the Information tab of any project. Your files will appear on your finished property website and virtual tour. Enjoy!

That’s a wrap for our June 2025 system updates! We hope these new additions and features help you continue to dominate your local market and shine as a real estate photography & media provider.

If you have any questions about these updates, please don’t hesitate to contact our customer service team. We’re here to help.

We appreciate your business, loyalty, and support.

Sincerely,

Jason & Team RTV

“Success with RTV from a Real Estate Agent’s Point of View
In early 2005 as the real estate market here in the Florida Keys started to slow, I could see I would have to brush up on my marketing skills and find better ways to expose my listings to potential buyers. With so many Florida Keys homes and condos sold as vacation homes, an online presence with great photos and virtual tours becomes essential. A few years earlier I was the first agent in our area to do virtual tours. I had tried the two-shot version but the results were not very good. Then the market got so hot, and properties were selling so fast, there was no real need to have tours. I could see the tide turning and I wanted to add virtual tours back to my listings so I started doing some research to find the best solution. After looking at a lot of low quality tours, I found RTV. Having taken some photography courses in college, and with over 30 years in the real estate business taking photos of houses, I decided to do the tours myself. My first RTV tour was of one of the highest priced homes in Key Largo. Shortly after submitting it, I received a call from a buyer who said his wife had seen a virtual tour on the Internet and she wanted him to take a look at the property while he was in the Keys. During the showing he called his wife at home and told her to look at the virtual tour again. They decided then and there to make an offer. They ended up buying the property. The wife never came to see it until closing. The selling price was $3.7 million.

Since then there have been other situations where a buyer’s partner or family member could not be present but the decision to go forward was based on the virtual tour. Many times in the course of showing one of my listings with an agent from another company, I hear the buyers talking about having seen the virtual tour on the Internet. It seems they find the listings and have their agent make the appointment which results in more showings and sales for my sellers. I have a contract pending on a property which is scheduled to close later this month. The buyers have never been inside the house. Asking price almost $3 million.

In spite of our market being down almost 50% in the number of sales, and the inventory being up almost 50% in the number of listings, this has been my best year ever in real estate with over $12 million in sales so far – and it is only April. Thank you RTV for helping take my career to a new level.”

“RTV, Best Service, Great Products!!!
We opened Photos Sell, real estate photography in January 2015. I found RTV during a search for a portal site so I could send high res images over the internet to my customers. When I called this company I was greeted by the owner himself. Jason LaVanture. Jason explained what RTV was about and what they can do for my new business. Great customer service, training, high res Virtual Tours and much, much more. After I signed up I got all of the above and much, much more. I received excellent training on the system. Instant help from customer support almost never got a voice mail and when I did they always got right back to me ASAP. The product is like nothing else, it set me apart from my competition. Look if your pictures are not good, they will no look good on any medium. I now work for 35 agents and exclusive with two large Brokers in our area. I am busy as hell. I read the complaints on this company and my response to those who complained is: you can’t make a living off the leads you get for RTV. You need to market you self, have a great product and provide great customer service. Look, I am no one special to RTV, just a customer and I have received outstanding service, their web portal works flawlessly and is easy to use and navigate. I can pickup the phone and speak to the Owner any time, he is a great resource and can be depended upon should you have a problem!! Thank you RTV. I prefer not be anonymizes: George Pulizzano, Photos Sell, Tampa, Florida.”

“I became a RTV Full Service Provider after I researched many different virtual tour software solutions and purchased several different packages from virtual tour companies in the industry. RTV wins hands down! Their tours are truly INTERACTIVE and professional quality. Unlike other software that can distort images and give the ‘fishbowl’ effect, RTV offers a superior software solution that forgives even the most amateur of photographers and allows professional photographers to REALLY show off their work. In the last year my company has produced more than 170 tours for both commercial and real estate applications and that number is growing daily. On top of our own marketing efforts, RTV has sent us MANY qualified leads! 95% of all the leads that they send us result in an immediate order! To top the cake, their support staff is ON THE BALL!! A BIG thank you to Torie, Jon, Jacque (tour track), Ben and especially Jason for all of their training, support and attention to detail. I have been known to be a little ‘fiery’ and passionate about my business, but they have always answered my support requests promptly and professionally! I highly recommend their software to anyone who is even considering doing their own tours in-house OR starting a virtual tour company. You simply CANNOT beat the level of support or quality of software.”
