What are floorplan services?

A measurement service is just what it sounds like: Based on your needs, an appraiser will measure the home's dimensions and area, then draw a basic or highly detailed floorplan. The appraiser's report and floorplan is a form that can be used to prove the accurate Gross Living Area (GLA), the total livable area, of your home. These services are helpful and often necessary when disputing property taxes or selling a property.

How does a home measurement or floorplan service work?

During a measurement or floorplan service, a ASNI Z765-2021 qualified appraiser measures your home with a measuring tool — generally a tape measure and a laser measuring device. As they walk the house, they mark the layout of the rooms and other features, like stairs, entryways, and fireplaces. They may sketch the property. Then, the appraiser creates a report and a more detailed floorplan showing the total living area of the home and the general layout. The result is a document that can be used to prove certain details about your property — like the Gross Living Area (GLA) — on tax documents, property listings, and more.

When are measurement services necessary?

Property taxes

Tax records often reflect incorrect square footage because the values can come from many sources, and sometimes go unproven — which means you may be taxed for more space than you have! Unless an appraiser has recently completed a valuation on your property (after any renovation that might have affected square footage), you'll need an appraiser to perform a home measurement service before disputing what you're taxed. An appraiser will verify the accurate Gross Living Area (GLA) of your property so your taxes can reflect the actual square footage — and you can stop paying more than your house is worth.

Selling a property

A home measurement service can secure a fair price for your home. Living space is one of the most important elements potential buyers examine when purchasing a home — but since these values are often approximated rather than accurately measured, your listing may reflect less Gross Living Area (GLA) than it can take credit for. An inaccurate GLA could potentially reduce the selling price of your property as well as the number of interested buyers. The only sure method of using a definitive GLA when listing your home is to refer to a recent appraisal or measurement service carried out by an appraiser (after any updating that may have affected square footage).

For real estate professionals

To make certain that your client's property sells at a price that properly reflects true market value, we advise asking for a floorplan service for the property. Your clients, and potential buyers, will be grateful for your attentiveness, and you can rest assured knowing the GLA on your client's listing is a true representation of their home. A measurement can also be a fantastic marketing tactic for enticing potential buyers because they can see the layout and attributes of the home before and after a walkthrough.
