Tour On Your Own Schedule: How NterNow Makes Touring Fortner Homes Easier

Buying a new home is a big decision, and sometimes you want to see a home before you’re ready to sit down for an appointment. Maybe you’re driving through a community and a home catches your eye. Maybe your schedule doesn’t line up with traditional model home hours. Or maybe you simply want the freedom to explore a home at your own pace.

That’s where NterNow self-guided home tours come in.

At Fortner Homes, we’re always looking for ways to make the homebuying experience easier, more convenient, and more comfortable for our buyers. NterNow gives prospective homeowners the opportunity to tour select Fortner homes on their schedule, while providing a secure and streamlined experience.

What Is NterNow?

NterNow is a secure self-touring technology that allows prospective homebuyers to access participating homes without having to wait for a sales representative to be available.

Instead of coordinating a traditional appointment, buyers can use NterNow to verify their identity, receive a one-time access code, and explore the home independently.

It’s a simple way to experience a home in person when it works best for you.

How Does a NterNow Self-Guided Tour Work?

The process is designed to be simple.

1. Find a Home Offering a Self-Guided Tour

Look for the NterNow self-tour signage at participating Fortner Homes. The signage will provide the information you need to begin the process.

2. Verify Your Identity

NterNow requires visitors to verify their identity before accessing a home. This helps keep the self-touring experience secure for both homebuyers and builders.

3. Receive Your One-Time Access Code

Once your identity has been verified, you’ll receive a one-time code that provides access to the home. The codes are designed for a single property and cannot simply be shared with someone else.

4. Take Your Time and Explore

Once inside, you can walk through the home at your own pace.

Look at the kitchen. Walk through the bedrooms. Picture where your furniture would go. Open the closets. Take in the finishes and details.

There’s no need to rush. You can experience the home for yourself and decide whether it feels like the right fit for you.

5. Lock Up When You Leave

When your tour is complete, simply follow the NterNow instructions to secure the home before you leave.

If you have questions or want to take the next step, our Fortner Homes team is here to help.

Why Offer Self-Guided Home Tours?

We know that buying a home doesn’t always happen on a 9-to-5 schedule.

You may be working during the day. You may be coming from another town. You may be exploring neighborhoods on a weekend drive. Or you may simply want to see a home before scheduling time to talk with a sales representative.

NterNow gives buyers more flexibility to explore participating homes during daylight hours, rather than limiting the experience to traditional staffed sales hours.

That flexibility matters.

Explore on Your Schedule

Your home search should work around your life, not the other way around.

Self-guided tours give you the opportunity to explore participating Fortner homes when it’s convenient for you.

Experience the Home for Yourself

Photos, floor plans, and virtual tours are helpful, but nothing replaces walking through a home in person.

A self-guided tour lets you experience the layout, natural light, finishes, storage, and overall feel of the home firsthand.

Take Your Time

Sometimes the best way to decide whether a home is right for you is simply to slow down and look around.

With a self-guided tour, you can explore the home without feeling like you need to make a decision on the spot.

Convenient for Out-of-Town Buyers

If you’re relocating to Eastern North Carolina or looking for a new construction home outside your current area, scheduling appointments for every home can be challenging.

NterNow can make it easier to add a participating Fortner home to your home search while you’re already visiting the area.

A More Flexible Way to Shop for a New Home

At Fortner Homes, we believe technology should make the homebuying experience easier, not more complicated.

That’s why we’re excited to offer NterNow at select homes.

Self-guided tours don’t replace our sales team. Instead, they give buyers another way to begin their home search. You can explore a home independently and then connect with our team when you’re ready to ask questions, discuss available homes, review pricing, or take the next step toward making a Fortner home your own.

NterNow also provides builders with information about self-tour activity, helping sales teams better understand when prospective buyers are visiting and follow up appropriately.

Ready to See a Fortner Home?

Your future home may be closer than you think.

If you see a NterNow self-tour sign at a participating Fortner Homes property, you can take advantage of the self-guided tour experience and explore the home for yourself.

And when you’re ready, our Fortner Homes team is here to answer your questions and help you move from “Could this be the one?” to “Welcome home.”
