Who the walkthrough is really for in Cascade
Cascade Township is one of the most affluent suburbs southeast of Grand Rapids, about ten to twelve miles from downtown. The Thornapple River winds past a stretch of riverfront and wooded executive lots, and the township is anchored by top-rated Forest Hills Public Schools.
The 3D tour earns its $100 here on one specific buyer: relocating executives and second-home buyers who will not see the property in person until they are already serious. A walkthrough link does a job no gallery can — it lets someone move through the floor plan on their own time, in their own order, and arrive at a showing already knowing whether the layout works.
What you actually get
- An interactive walkthrough — a Zillow 3D Home and Matterport-style tour a buyer can navigate room to room from any device
- One link — drop it in the MLS, your listing page, an email, or a social post
- Captured on the same shoot — no second appointment, no second trip, no separate scheduling
- A 2D floor plan option — add measurements for $75 so photos, dimensions, and the walkthrough all live in one place
- A premium path — a fully hosted Matterport Pro tour runs $250 to $295, custom-quoted, for higher-end listings that warrant it

How it is captured
The scan runs alongside the photo shoot rather than as a separate visit, which adds time on site but not a second appointment on your calendar. The home should be shot-ready the same way it would be for stills: lights on, blinds set, counters clear, nothing in the frame that should not be there. Pets and people stay out of the scan for obvious reasons.
The finished tour is delivered as a link on the same next-business-day standard as the photos.

Cascade 3D tour FAQ
How much does a 3D virtual tour cost in Cascade?
It is a $100 add-on to any photo package: Essential $245, Showcase $375, or Signature $525 (which already includes a walkthrough). A fully hosted Matterport Pro tour is $250 to $295, custom-quoted.
Is it a real Matterport tour?
The $100 add-on covers Zillow 3D Home and a Matterport-style walkthrough, which is what the large majority of listings need. A premium, fully hosted Matterport Pro tour is available as a custom quote for higher-end properties.
Do you need a separate appointment for the tour?
No. The scan is captured during the same session as the HDR stills, which is why it is priced as an add-on rather than as a standalone product.
Can I add a floor plan to a Cascade listing too?
Yes. A 2D floor plan is $75, so a buyer gets photos, measurements, and a walkthrough from one shoot.
