Enjoy virtual tours of luxury homes from the comfort of your own home.
Take a Luxury Model Home Virtual Tour
Luxury home virtual tours offer prospective buyers a first-person view of our gorgeous mansions and properties . At IS Luxury, we use the latest three-dimensional and VR technology available to create the most immersive, interactive experiences possible. Each luxury home 3D tour goes beyond still photographs to make you feel like you walking through each elegant space.
Ways To Enjoy Your Luxury 3D House Tour
Begin your convenient mansion 3D tour in dollhouse mode. This allows you to view the property from above or the side with all walls removed. You can gain new perspectives on the space, size, and proximity of each room in the house. Click on bubbles throughout the “dollhouse” to gain access to special views of unique spaces, vistas, alcoves, and more.
You can also view a classic floorplan, providing a perfect bird’s eye view, with the roof and ceilings removed. Unlike traditional floorplans or blueprints, this unique perspective features actual photos of the space. It is a more authentic way to engage with the property that would be impossible without the aid of technology.
During the tour, you can use the floor selector tool to toggle between floors of the house. Try using the floor selector while in both floorplan mode or dollhouse mode for a new view of the property.
Taking a 3D House Tour of a Luxury Property
The most compelling element of your mega mansion 3D tour is moving throughout the space as if you’re really there! While in floorplan or dollhouse mode, simply click on any location. You’ll immediately find yourself in the middle of the mansion, ready to explore.
You can click and drag anywhere on the screen to look around. Remember, it is a 3D tour, so you can explore the floors and ceilings, too. Move about the space by clicking on the dilute circles in each room. Each one grants you a new point of view, allowing you to enjoy the luxury home from a different angle.
Be on the lookout for a variety of icons, which offer more interactive ways to engage with the space. These include 360-degree views of outdoor spaces, photo galleries, and more.

A 26-year-old man died Friday after plunging from a luxury Manhattan co-op in an apparent suicide, police said.
The young man was found in the rear courtyard of the Imperial House on East 69th Street off Lexington Avenue in Lenox Hill around 7:40 p.m.
He was suffering from “injuries indicative of falling from an elevated position,” according to the NYPD.
The man was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police said no foul play was suspected.
It wasn’t immediately clear what floor of the 30-story building the man plunged from.
The Imperial House is described as “among the finest, most desirable white glove co-operatives combining elegance and service” by realtors.
A two-bed, two-bathroom co-op sells for $1,900,000, while an additional bed and bath raises the price to a shocking $3,495,000, according to listings.
Late actress Joan Crawford called the Imperial House, then an apartment building, home from 1968 until her death in 1977.

Rise in all-cash transactions turbocharge price gains for luxury homes
April 25, 2024 / 4:51 PM EDT / CBS/AP
Well-heeled home shoppers are increasingly paying cash, helping turbocharge price gains for the most expensive U.S. homes.
The median sale price of luxury homes — valued in the top 5% of the market nationally — hit an all-time high $1.23 million in the first quarter, an increase of 8.7% from the same period last year, according to an analysis by Redfin. That's almost twice the increase seen in non-luxury homes.
For homes valued in the middle-third of the market, the median sale price rose 4.6% from a year ago to $345,000, according to the report. Redfin didn't factor in price trends for homes with an estimated value in the bottom third of the market.
One reason for the diverging sales data is that wealthy home shoppers are more likely to have the financial flexibility to bypass financing hurdles by paying in cash. The trend is helping accelerate the growth in home sale prices among the most high-end homes at a faster clip than less expensive properties.
Consider, some 46.8% of luxury homes were bought entirely with cash in the three months ended February 29, according to Redfin. That's the highest share of all-cash luxury home purchases in at least a decade and it's up from 44.1% from a year earlier.
Prices for the most expensive homes have kept climbing even as the inventory of high-end properties has increased sharply this year. All told, the number of luxury homes on the market jumped 12.6% in the first quarter compared to a year earlier, while new listings surged nearly 19%, Redfin said.
In contrast, the inventory of homes in the middle-third of the market fell 2.9% in the January-March period from a year earlier. Home prices are growing more unaffordable for the average American, in part because inventory has been low.
Homeowners have been hesitant to sell because they would then face buying another property at today's higher mortgage rates. Some homeowners have also watched their home equity grow in value , making them even more reluctant to walk away from that wealth growth.
Sales of luxury homes rose 2.1% in the first quarter versus a year earlier, while sales of properties in the middle-third of the market fell 4.2%, according to the report.
Buying a house is costlier than anytime in at least the last decade , with property buyers hit with the double whammy of rising mortgage rates and home prices, Redfin has said.

[THEME MUSIC]
American lawmakers have tried for years to ban the video app TikTok over concerns that its ties to China pose a national security risk. Last week, they passed a law that might finally do it. Today, my colleague, Sapna Maheshwari, on the secret effort behind the law and what a ban would mean for the company’s 170 million American users.
It’s Tuesday, April 30.
So Sapna, tell me about this law that just passed that potentially bans the social media app TikTok. We’ve seen efforts in the past to rein in TikTok, but this one really seems like the most substantial yet.
It’s a huge deal. What this law really does is it puts the future of this hugely popular app with 170 million American users into question. TikTok has reshaped the way many people listen to music. It’s changed the way we cook. It’s made a whole different kind of celebrity.
But it’s never been able to shake these concerns around the fact that it has really close ties to China. It’s owned by a Chinese company, ByteDance. And lawmakers, for years, have been worried that the Chinese government could somehow use ByteDance and TikTok to get information on Americans or possibly spread propaganda.
President Trump tried to ban it in 2020. The State of Montana tried to ban this app last year. TikTok has largely survived those challenges, but this time it could actually be banned in the United States.
So let’s talk about this. Why did this effort succeed where the other ones failed?
So it’s an interesting story.
Here we go.
The committee will come to order.
And it really dates back to this hearing about a year ago that Congress had with Shou Chew, the CEO of TikTok.
Mr. Chew, you are here because the American people need the truth about the threat TikTok poses to our national and personal security.
Members of the committee, thank you for your time.
— TikTok has repeatedly said that it has addressed these national security concerns and that there’s no issue here. And you can hear that when Shou Chew testified.
Let me start by addressing a few misconceptions about ByteDance of which we are a subsidiary. ByteDance is not owned or controlled by the Chinese government.
He’s saying American investors are behind ByteDance.
Now, TikTok itself is not available in mainland China. We’re headquartered in Los Angeles and in Singapore.
And I myself am Singaporean. I live in Singapore.
The bottom line is this — American data, stored on American soil, by an American company, overseen by American personnel.
And we are actually going above and beyond what American technology companies do to keep things safe.
And I look forward to your questions. Thank you very much.
And is Congress convinced by that?
Congress is not convinced by that.
ByteDance is a Chinese company?
Well, ByteDance owns many businesses that operates in China.
Is it or is it not a Chinese company?
Congressman, the way we look at it, it was founded by Chinese entrepreneurs.
No, no, no, no. I’m not asking how you look at it. Fact, is it a Chinese company or not? For example, Dell is a company —
It was this really fiery, five-hour hearing, where Republicans and Democrats asked really contentious questions.
We do not promote or remove content at the request of the Chinese government. Will you repeat —
The question is, are you percent certain that they cannot use your company to promote such messages?
It is our commitment to this committee and all our users that we will keep this free from any manipulation by any government.
OK. If you can’t say it 100 percent certain I take that as a no.
There’s this underlying sense of distrust around the company and its ties to China.
I will remind you that making false or misleading statements to Congress is a federal crime.
I understand. Again, you can go on our platform. You will find that content.
And it becomes clear through the hearing that, across the board, Republicans and Democrats largely feel the same way.
Mr. Chew, I got to hand it to you. You’ve actually done something that in the last three to four years has not happened except for the exception of maybe Vladimir Putin. You have unified Republicans and Democrats.
So within weeks of this hearing, this small group of lawmakers gets together. And they say, let’s come up with a law that works where all the other ones have failed and actually make TikTok answer to its Chinese connections once and for all.
So tell me about this small group of lawmakers. Who are they?
So it starts with Republicans. Among them is Steve Scalise, one of the most powerful Republicans in the House. And a small group sort of works together for a few months, but they realize that in order to really make this law work, they’re going to need Democrats. So they end up working through this House Committee that’s focused on China and competition. And this is where the bulk of the work on this bill takes place.
And just to note, this is a really small group. There’s less than 20 key players who are working on this. And all throughout, they are keeping this very, very secret.
And why exactly are they keeping it secret? What’s the point of that?
So this group really wanted to keep this out of the eyes of TikTok, which has a huge lobbying presence in DC, and has successfully worked to kill bills that targeted TikTok in the past. And what they’re really doing is looking at all of the past efforts to either force a sale or a ban of TikTok, and trying to work their way through why those plans didn’t succeed and what they can do differently.
But while the lawmakers are working on this bill, something big happens that kind of changes the politics around it. And that’s October 7.
Your social media feeds are unique to you, but could they be shaping how you view the Israel-Gaza War? The BBC’s —
As the war breaks out and people start getting information about it, a lot of people are getting information about the Israel-Hamas War on TikTok, especially young people.
Social media algorithms seem to be driving some users towards increasingly divisive posts —
And there’s this big messy argument spilling out into living rooms and all over the internet, and, of course on TikTok. And it’s getting very heated. For instance, there’s this moment in the fall where a bunch of TikTok users start sharing this old manifesto.
I read Osama bin Laden’s “Letter to America.”
It’s wild, and everyone should read it.
Go read “A Letter to America.” Seriously, go read it.
That was actually written by Osama bin Laden, defending the 9/11 attacks and criticizing the United States’ support of Israel. TikTok users start trying to tie it to the modern day conflict.
Reading this letter, it becomes apparent to me that the actions of 9/11 were all just the buildup of our government failing other nations.
The way this letter is going viral right now is giving me the greatest sense of relief. Now it’s all coming to light because of Palestine.
And there’s these accusations that TikTok may be promoting one side of the conflict over the other. And a couple of researchers look at hashtags around Palestine, and they say that the data they pulled shows that TikTok is showing way more pro-Palestine videos and not so much for Israel. And this sets off huge alarm bells for this small group of lawmakers.
But isn’t that just a function of the fact that TikTok, at this point, is the public square in the United States for young people? I mean, this is what young people were talking about, and this is where they’re doing the talking.
TikTok has pushed back really forcefully against these accusations. They said that Gallup polls show that young people view Israel differently than older generations. They say that they’re not the ones influencing what people post, that the hashtags and the videos are a reflection of the user base and nothing that they’re doing to influence.
But for lawmakers, this doesn’t really make their concerns go away. Instead, this conflict shows them how TikTok could be used to spread propaganda. It made lawmakers feel that TikTok could be really dangerous when it comes to shaping the views of Americans on foreign policy, on US elections. And what it also does is, it provides this driving force to this group that’s drafting this bill. And they suddenly see that this might be a way to bring more people into their effort.
And so heading into November against this backdrop, they even bring in the White House and the Justice Department to help work on this bill. And with the White House, they want to make sure that this is a bill that the president will support. And they work with the Justice Department to shore up the language in the bill to help defend against court challenges.
Because the Justice Department, of course, would be the one that would have to defend the bill, right?
That’s exactly right. And so they’re trying to make it as rock solid as possible so that they can win in court when TikTok challenges this law. And so March rolls around, and they decide that it’s time to unveil this bill that they’ve been working on for close to a year.
The battle over TikTok on Capitol Hill is intensifying.
This morning, House lawmakers have agreed unanimously to move a bill to a full floor vote.
And TikTok is caught completely flat footed. They didn’t see this coming. And this is just what the group wanted. So TikTok has this army of lobbyists that’s suddenly scrambling. And they go into damage control mode. They start reaching out to members of Congress.
This app is so much more than just an app for dumb TikTok dances.
They fly a group of TikTok stars and small businesses to come to DC —
This is a life-changing apps.
— and lobby on the steps of the Capitol and meet with lawmakers.
Standing up here with all these amazing TikTokers behind me is a complete honor, and every single one of them would voice their opinion just like this. This is how we feel. This has to stop.
They set up interviews between these TikTok creators, as they’re known, and big TV shows and news programs. And they’re doing everything they can to fight against this bill before it goes any further. And then they decide to do something unusual, which is use TikTok itself to try and derail this bill.
How exactly do they do that?
So days after this bill is announced, a ton of TikTok users get a message when they open the TikTok app that basically says, call Congress and tell them not to ban TikTok.
Hmm. OK. So like, literally this window comes up and says, call Congress. Here you go.
Exactly. You can enter your zip code, and there’s a button that appears. And you can press it, and the call goes straight to your representative.
So offices are quickly overwhelmed by calls. And TikTok sent out this message to users on the same day that a House committee is going into vote on this bill and whether to move it forward. And so the stunt happens. They go into vote, and they come out, and it’s 50 to 0 in support of the bill.
One of the representatives who worked on the bill said that this stunt by TikTok turned a lot of no’s into yeses and yeses into, quote, “hell yeses.”
[LAUGHS]: so the whole episode sounds like it actually backfired, right? Like, TikTok’s stunt essentially just confirmed what was the deepest fears of lawmakers about this company, that the app could be used to influence American politics.
That’s definitely how a lot of lawmakers viewed it. And when this bill is brought to the full House a week later, it passes by an overwhelming majority. And weeks later, it passes in the Senate as part of a broader aid package. And on Wednesday, it’s signed into law by President Biden.
But now the question is, what does it mean? Like, how will this actually work? And how will it affect the tens of millions of Americans who use TikTok every day?
[MUSIC PLAYING]
We’ll be right back.
So Sapna, now that Biden has signed this bill, what does it actually mean in practice for TikTok? What does the law do?
So the law is really trying to push ByteDance, the company that owns TikTok, to sell to a non-Chinese owner. And the company basically has nine months for this sale to happen. There’s an option for President Biden to add another three months to that clock. And if the company doesn’t find a buyer or refuses to be sold, it will be banned.
And what would a ban actually mean, Sapna? I mean, people would still have the app on their phones, right? So it wouldn’t disappear overnight.
Yeah, no one’s coming to pick up your phone and to forcibly delete this thing. What the law says is that app stores and web hosting services wouldn’t be allowed to carry TikTok anymore. So basically, it would kind of die a slow death over time, where it wouldn’t be updated and just kind of peter out.
So the bottom line here is that the clock has started on this potential sale, right? They have 12 months to find a buyer. So what are the obstacles here? I mean, it sounds pretty ferociously complicated.
There’s a ton of challenges here. And it’s a very messy choose-your-own adventure. So one of the first big questions is who could buy this?
ByteDance and TikTok are private. We don’t know their financials. But analysts estimate that it will cost tens of billions of dollars. That narrows the buying pool pretty quickly. And a lot of the companies that could afford to buy it, like Meta, the owner of Facebook, or Google, which owns YouTube, would probably be kicked out of the running because they are simply too big. Regulators would say, you already own these big apps. You can’t possibly add this to your stable.
There’d be a monopoly concern there.
Exactly. And then, there’s a lot of questions around how this would work, technically. ByteDance and TikTok are very much global organizations. You have the CEO in Singapore. They have huge operations in Ireland. They have this big workforce in the US. And of course, they do have engineers in China.
So how do you extract all those things, make it all work? It’s a very big international transaction.
And then there is the chance that the Chinese government blocks this sale and says, you cannot do this, ByteDance. We will not allow it.
So Sapna, how does that actually work, though, in terms of China? I mean, can China actually just ban the sale of this company? I mean, it is a private company after all, right?
Well, here’s one way it could work. The Chinese government could block the export of TikTok’s algorithm. And let me explain that in kind of plain English.
They could basically block the technology that fuels the TikTokiness of this app, the recommendations, the magic of it, why you see what you see when you’re looking at TikTok.
TikTokiness, is that an adjective?
That is now an adjective.
[LAUGHS]: Nice.
And there’s a chance that Beijing could say, hey, you can’t export this technology. That is proprietary. And if that happens, that suddenly makes TikTok way, way less valuable.
So the Chinese government could let the sale go through potentially, but as a kind of an empty shell, right? The thing that makes TikTok TikTok, the algorithm, wouldn’t be part of the company. So that probably isn’t very appealing for a potential buyer.
Exactly. And I mean, the role of the Chinese government here is really interesting. I’ve talked to experts who say, well, if the Chinese government interferes to try and block a sale of this app, doesn’t that underscore and prove all the concerns that have been expressed by American lawmakers?
If you’re worried about China being in control of this thing, well, that just confirmed your fears.
Exactly. And I mean, it’s an interesting thing that ByteDance and TikTok have to grapple with.
So bottom line here — selling TikTok is quite complicated, and perhaps not even possible for these reasons that you’re giving, right? I mean, not least of which because the Chinese government might not allow the algorithm to leave the country. And that’s not something that the US Congress has a lot of control over.
So is this law fundamentally just a ban, then?
That’s what TikTok is calling it. Right after this bill was signed into law on Wednesday —
Make no mistake, this is a ban, a ban on TikTok and a ban on you and your voice.
— Tiktok’s CEO made a TikTok — what else?— that explained the company’s position.
Because the freedom of expression on TikTok reflects the same American values that make the United States a beacon of freedom.
He actually argued that TikTok reflects American values.
TikTok gives everyday Americans a powerful way to be seen and heard. And that’s why so many people have made TikTok part of their daily lives.
And he said that this law infringes on the First Amendment free speech rights of Americans who love it and who use it every day.
The facts and the Constitution are on our side, and we expect to prevail again.
So it’s very clear that TikTok plans to challenge this law in court. And the court fight to follow will determine the fate of TikTok’s future in the US.
So is that First Amendment argument that the TikTok CEO is making here going to work?
Nobody wants to put money on that. I mean, the company is really approaching this with the idea that the First Amendment rights of Americans are being infringed on. But if you remember, the government has been working on this law. They’ve been anticipating those challenges. And they can justify an infringing of First Amendment rights in certain cases, including with national security concerns. And so it’ll be up to a judge on whether those concerns pass muster and justify this sale and even a potential ban of TikTok.
Got it. So TikTok will argue free speech, First Amendment. And the government will counter by saying, look, this is about China. This is about America’s national security interests.
That’s right. And the legal experts that I’ve spoken with say this is a really big and sticky area of the law, and it’s a huge case. And they really think that this will go to the Supreme Court, regardless of who wins in the first round of this.
So where does that leave the millions of Americans who use TikTok, and many of them, of course, who earn a living on the platform?
I mean, it’s really uncertain what happens now with the company, and the clock has started ticking. When I’ve looked at TikTok and looked at videos from users —
This is about the impending TikTok ban. And it just triggered me so much. It makes my blood boil, and I have to get this out there.
There’s a lot of shock —
The most success I’ve had has been here on TikTok, and now they’re trying to take it away.
This is so stupid!
— and anger.
You can’t ban apps! You can’t ban things from people!
People are confused.
Word on the street is that in the next 9 to 12 months, TikTok could be banned.
And they’re also caught a bit off guard, just because there have been these years of efforts to do something about TikTok. People on the app have been hearing about a TikTok ban, really, since 2020.
The government can take away a literal app on our phones, and we’re supposed to believe we’re free?
A few TikTokers have said, how can this be the thing that the government is pushing through so quickly?
Can we stop funding a genocide? No. Can we get free COVID tests? No. Can we stop killing the planet? No. Can we at least watch videos on an app of people doing fun things and learn about the world around us? No.
So there’s this sense of distrust and disappointment for many people who love this app.
We got rid of TikTok. You’re welcome. Protecting you from China. You know that phone was made in China. Ah!
And I think there’s also this question, too, around what about TikTok makes it so harmful? Even though it has increasingly become a place for news, there’s plenty of people who simply use this app for entertainment. And what they’re seeing out of Washington just doesn’t square with the reality they experience when they pull out their phones.
And I wonder, Sapna, I mean, just kind of stepping back for a second, let’s say this ban on TikTok succeeds. If it goes through, would Americans be better off?
It depends who you ask. For the users who love TikTok, if it actually disappeared, it would be the government taking away a place where maybe they make money, where they get their entertainment, where they figure out what to read or what to cook next. To free speech advocates, this would be dystopian, unheard of for the government to crack down on an app with such wide usage by Americans.
But for the American political class And the National security establishment, this is a necessary move, one that was years in the making, not something that was just come up with on the fly. And ultimately, it all comes down to China and this idea that you can’t have a social media app like this, a source of news like this, that is even at all at risk of being influenced by the Chinese government and our greatest adversaries.
Sapna, thank you.
Here’s what else you should know today. On Monday, in its latest high-profile showdown with pro-Palestinian protesters, Columbia University gave students until 2:00 PM to clear out from an encampment at the center of campus or face suspension. It appeared to be an effort to remove the encampment without relying on New York City Police, whose removal of a previous encampment there two weeks ago inspired similar protests on campuses across the country.
Free Palestine!
Hi, this is Sharon Otterman reporting for “The New York Times.”
00 PM deadline for protesters to clear out of the encampment at the center of Columbia University has come and gone, and there’s still quite a large contingent inside the encampment.
But Monday’s warning seemed only to galvanize the Columbia protesters and their supporters.
And hundreds of students and others from around the campus have come out to support them. They are currently walking around in a picket around the encampment.
Hundreds of students, standing for or five people deep, encircled the encampment in a show of solidarity. They were joined by members of the Columbia faculty.
There’s also dozens of faculty members, who are prepared to stand in lines in front of the main entrance to the encampment, in case Public Safety or the NYPD move in. But as of 2:00, there was no sign of that happening.
Then, on Monday evening, Columbia announced it had begun to suspend students who had failed to leave the encampment. It was unclear exactly how many students had been suspended.
