After an extensive interview process, Circlepix has named local businesswoman Linda Lee of Gig Harbor, as the Tri-County Area Manager.

Circlepix, one of the industry leaders in virtual tours and 360-degree imaging technology, has aggressively expanded across the Nation and has built one of the largest, independently owned network of photographers in the Industry. The company is nearly five years old, privately held, and is continuing rapid growth. The demand for virtual tours in real estate is huge across the United States. As the value leader in the Industry, we felt that it was time to introduce ourselves to the North West, and see if we can be of service to them," Tyler Davis, Circlepix vice president said yesterday.

Linda Lee is one of the brightest business stars in that area, and among some terrific candidates, we just couldnt pass her up." Davis continued. Lee herself explained her business philosophy. In any industry, its the service that matters. I have a commitment to customer service that demands the best from myself and those on my staff. I can guarantee our customers better service, lower price, and better quality than they can find anywhere else."

Im excited to introduce this great service to the people of Kitsap," Lee said in an interview. Our tours are famous across the Nation for being fast, easy to use, at the undisputed lowest price. That commitment will be amplified here."

Virtual tours" is an industry name for a photographic process that allows an individual to view a room as if he were standing in it and turning to look at every angle. Allowing the buyer or renter to see the property as if her were actually there -- to virtually tour" the property -- give the technology its name. The tours are hosted on the Internet and allow buyers to tour properties from any location with web access. Data show that over 80% of homebuyers begin their search for property on the Internet, an increasingly crowded market where sellers are looking for ways to stand out from the crowd.

Industry standard virtual tours, consisting of 4 to 5 virtual" pictures (360-degree photographs), combined with one or two still photographs, cost in the neighborhood of $100, ranging sometimes to as much as $150, with additional charges for photos beyond the basic package. Circlepix certainly has an advantage here -- the basic Circlepix tour is just $59.99 for five virtual photos, a Circlepix exclusive, consisting of ten virtual shots and ten still photos in a slide show format, is only $89.99, a significant value in a crowded market.

Real estate agents, rental property owners, condo associations and business owners are looking to technology to give them a marketing edge. Circlepix can provide that edge. Were excited to show our partners what we can do to give them an advantage," Lee said.
