As it becomes clear that the coronavirus pandemic isn't going to be resolved in a week or two, sellers and agents are coming to grips with a new reality that forces them to re-think how homes are traditionally marketed and sold. An increasing number are getting creative to keep interest alive and allow would-be buyers to tour the homes in a new way.

New developments throughout the city offer on-demand virtual tours of their listings, and CityRealty will explore these tomorrow. Meanwhile, apartment videos, once thought to be the domain of a busy international demograpic, allow isolated locals to "tour" the units without setting foot outside. Visit these gorgeous homes all over New York from your own couch.
