Let PS Professional Inc. be your choice for home measurement or floorplan services Get a quote todayWhat is a home measurement or floorplan service?A home measurement service is just what it sounds like: An appraiser measures the dimensions and square footage of a property, then draws a basic or highly detailed layout based on your requirements. The appraiser's report and floorplan is a document that can be used to prove a precise Gross Living Area (GLA), the sum of all livable space, of your home. These services are useful and often essential when challenging property taxes or selling a property. How do floorplan services work?During a home measurement or floorplan service, a certified appraiser takes measurements of your home or property with a measuring tool — generally a tape or laser measuring device. As they tour the home, they note the layout of the rooms and other features, like closets, hallways, and pantries. They may sketch out the property. Then, the appraiser writes up a report and detailed floorplan showing the total area and the general layout of the home. The result is a document that can be used to prove certain specs of your property — like the Gross Living Area (GLA) — on tax documents, home listings, and more. When are floorplan services needed?Property taxesProperty tax records frequently reflect incorrect square footage because the values can come from many sources, and sometimes go unverified — which means you may be paying for more space than you actually have! Unless an appraiser has performed a recent evaluation or home measurement service on your property (after any updating that may have affected square footage), you'll need one to perform a home measurement service before attempting to dispute what you're taxed. An appraiser will verify the accurate Gross Living Area (GLA) of your property so your taxes reflect your actual square footage — and you can stop paying more than your property is worth. Selling a propertyA floorplan service can secure a fair price for your property. Area is one of the biggest factors potential buyers look for when purchasing a home — but since square footage values are often estimated rather than properly measured, your home listing might show less Gross Living Area (GLA) than it can take credit for. An inaccurate GLA could potentially decrease the selling price of your property as well as the number of potential buyers. The only sure method of using an accurate GLA when listing your home or property is to refer to a recent appraisal or home measurement service executed by a certified appraiser (after any remodeling that may have affected square footage). For real estate professionalsTo ensure that your client's home closes at a price that appropriately reflects market value, we advise requesting a measurement of the property. Clients, and potential buyers, will be grateful for your eye for detail, and you can be assured that the GLA on your client's listing is truly representative of their home. A floorplan can also be an excellent marketing tactic for attracting potential buyers since they can see the layout and features of the house before and after touring.
