Yes, requesting a video tour before booking is a reasonable and increasingly common practice, and most legitimate hosts on Transienthome.com are willing to provide a short walkthrough video of the property upon request. A video tour gives guests a more realistic sense of the space, layout, lighting, and overall condition than static photos alone, and it also serves as a way to verify that the property actually exists and matches the listing description. If a host refuses to provide any form of video tour or additional visual documentation without a valid reason, treat it as a red flag and consider looking at other verified listings.
