How does property viewing via video work with SIGHTLY?
Viewing a property without your buying agent physically next to you?

With SIGHTLY, that is no problem. You walk through the house, and we join remotely through a video call via our platform. You get expert guidance throughout the viewing, without an agent needing to be there in person. We notice defects, potential risks, ask questions to the seller's agent beforehand, and we provide honest advice.

What do you need for a digital viewing with SIGHTLY?

Remote viewing with SIGHTLY is designed to make the process simple, smart, and professional. There is no app you need to download and you do not require technical experience. Everything runs through our secure and simple video platform.

Here is what you will need:

Smartphone with a working camera and microphone.

Stable internet connection.

The video link we send via email or WhatsApp.

Optional: Earbuds or headphones.

Smartphone with a working camera and microphone

During the viewing, you will use your own phone. Make sure your camera gives a clear image and make sure that your microphone works properly. It is important for us to see and hear everything as good as possible.
Pro tip: Fully charge your phone before the appointment.

Stable internet connection

A smooth connection is essential for the call. Use Wi-Fi or mobile data. If the connection drops during the viewing, we simply reconnect, or we use another solution.

The video link we send via email or WhatsApp

Before the appointment, we will send you a personal link via email or WhatsApp. You do not have to install anything. It is a simple click on the link, and we are connected.

Optional: Earbuds or headphones.

You can use earbuds or headphones during the call. This will help you hear us clearly without too much background noise.

How does viewing remotely via video work?

Here is how a remote property viewing with SIGHTLY goes:

  • Step 1: Viewing is scheduled.
  • Step 2: Receive the video link.
  • Step 3: We join remotely.
  • Step 4: Feedback and advice.
  • Step 5: Receive the report.

Step 1: Viewing is scheduled

Together, we found a property you are interested in. You tell us your availability, and we will schedule the viewing with the seller's agent.

Step 2: Receive the video link

Before the viewing, you will receive a link via email or WhatsApp. This link connects you to our platform. It makes you able to connect with your designated purchasing agent.

Step 3: We join remotely

When it is time for the appointment, you will open the link and start a video call with us. You start walking through the property while pointing your phone to your surroundings. We guide you live, ask you to zoom in, and ask any questions we might still have. We do send a list with questions to the seller's agent beforehand so that we have a clearer picture.

Step 4: Feedback and advice

Throughout the viewing, we give clear feedback:

  • What stands out?
  • What needs more of our attention?
  • Does this house require further inspection?

With our AI tool, we are trying to create a comprehensive picture of the current state. Having all the information means being able to make an informed choice.

Step 5: Receive the report

Within 24 hours after the viewing, you will receive a clear report including:

  • Visual defects.
  • Estimated repair costs.
  • Practical advice: should we move forward, get a full inspection, or look for another property.

What are the advantages of video guidance with SIGHTLY?

Video viewing may feel different or a little scary at first, but it comes with many advantages. Here is why many buyers our switching to our method:

  • Acting quickly, no waiting around.
  • Structural insights.
  • Visual and detailed report for every viewing.
  • Fixed price, multiple viewings included.

Acting quickly, no waiting around

Traditional agents are very busy. It might take days or even weeks to book an appointment. With SIGHTLY, we will contact you within one business day after applying. Viewings can also be booked within one day.

Structural insights 

You walk through the home, and we bring trained eyes. Before helping people buy their house, our purchasing agents start by learning more about working with our AI-tool. Due to the thorough inspection, you can see this viewing as a pre-inspection phase. If there are bigger issues, we will always advise you to get an official structural inspection.

Visual and detailed report for every viewing

After each viewing, we send you a structured report with:

  • Photos of any (potential) issues.
  • Estimated repair costs.
  • Our professional advice based on what we saw and what our AI noticed.

Based on this report, you can decide if you want to bid on this house.

Fixed price, multiple viewings included
