A major shift is underway in the 3D real estate world. In this episode of Upmarket Pod, Reed, Mark, and Molly unpack the growing portal competition between Matterport, Zillow 3D, and Homes.com, and what it means for agents and real estate media. They explain how CoStar’s acquisition of Matterport changes the 3D tour landscape, why Zillow is pushing its own 3D tool, and how Homes.com is positioning itself as a new player for agent visibility. They also share what agents should ask portals, which platforms to prioritize, and how to use 3D strategically to stay competitive in 2026.

Don't worry, they still end the show with their Action Items... things that any listener can do right now to help lay the foundation for scaling their Real Estate Media Business.
