Let C2 Advisory Group LLC be your choice for measurement services Get a quote todayWhat are floorplan services?A home measurement service is just what it sounds like: Based on what you need, an appraiser will measure your home's dimensions and area, then draw a basic or highly detailed floorplan. The appraiser's report and floorplan is a document that can be used to prove the precise Gross Living Area (GLA), the sum of all livable area, of your home. These services are helpful and often essential when disputing property taxes or selling a property. How does a home measurement or floorplan service work?During a floorplan service, an appraiser measures your home with a measuring tool — either a tape or laser measuring device. As they tour the house, they mark the layout of the rooms and other features, like stairs, hallways, and fireplaces. They might sketch the property. Then, the appraiser writes up a report and a more detailed floorplan showing the total square footage and the general layout of the home. The finished product 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 is a home measurement or floorplan service necessary?Challenging real estate taxesProperty tax records often reflect incorrect square footage because the values can come from various sources, and sometimes go unproven — which means you may be paying for more space than you actually have! Unless a certified appraiser has completed a recent valuation or measurement service on your property (after any renovation that might have affected square footage), you'll need an appraiser to perform a measurement service before attempting to dispute your taxes. An appraiser will verify the accurate Gross Living Area (GLA) of your property so your taxes reflect the actual square footage — and you can stop paying more than your house is worth. Selling a propertyA home measurement service can ensure that you're paid fair market value for your home. Living space is one of the most important elements potential buyers consider when purchasing a home — but since these values are often estimated rather than accurately measured, your property listing may show less Gross Living Area (GLA) than it can take credit for. An inaccurate GLA not only decreases the potential selling price of your property, but possibly even the number of interested buyers. The only sure method of using a precise GLA when listing your home or property is to reference a recent appraisal or measurement service executed by a certified appraiser (after any renovation that may have affected square footage). For agentsTo make certain that your client's home closes at a price that correctly reflects true market value, we advise requesting a floorplan service for the property. Your clients, and potential buyers, will appreciate your scrupulousness, and you can rest assured knowing the GLA on your client's listing is a true representation of their home. A floorplan can also be a fantastic marketing tactic to interest potential buyers because they can review the layout and features of the property before and after a tour.
