Digital Twins in Real Estate 2025: From Sales Tool to Live Operations

Digital twins are no longer just showpieces. When modeled with the right data contracts and synced with CRM, they become a living product that shortens sales cycles and reduces handover friction.

What a working twin actually contains

• Geometry & media: GLB/IFC + plan images, views, amenity photos
• Data: unit types, areas, price bands, statuses, incentives
• Context: sun-path, weather presets, nearby locations with real distances

Sales to operations pipeline

Keep one model. In sales, you filter and reserve units; at handover you attach snag lists and manuals; in operations, you visualize tickets spatially. The twin stays the interface—data sources evolve.

Minimum viable integration

• Read unit availability & pricing from CRM (cron or webhook)
• Write lead forms + reservations back to CRM
• Expose a lightweight embed for kiosk/tablet/web

Start with one truth: the unit list. Everything else can iterate.

Implementation checklist

• Decide your source of truth (CRM or inventory sheet) and lock the schema
• Publish GLB with named nodes for units/blocks to bind data
• Add lead capture + context screens (views, amenities, locations)
• Measure: demo completion, time-to-reservation, drop-off points
