What is a home measurement or floorplan service?

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

How does a measurement service work?

During a measurement service, a certified appraiser takes measurements of the home or property with a measuring tool — generally a tape or laser measuring device. As they walk the house, they notate the layout of the rooms and other features, like stairs, patios, and fireplaces. They may sketch the property. Then, the appraiser develops a report and detailed floorplan showing the total square footage of the home and the overall layout. The completed report is a document that can be used to prove certain details about your property — like the Gross Living Area (GLA) — on tax documents, home listings, and more.

When are measurement services needed?

Real estate taxes

Property tax records often reflect the wrong area of a property because the values can come from various sources, and sometimes go unproven — meaning you may be paying for more space than you own! Unless an appraiser has completed a recent appraisal or measurement service on your property (after any renovation that might have affected square footage), you'll need one to perform a measurement service before challenging what you're taxed. An appraiser assesses an accurate Gross Living Area (GLA) of your property so your taxes reflect your actual square footage — and you can stop overpaying.

Putting a home up for sale

A floorplan service will ensure that you're paid fair market value for your house. Area is one of the biggest factors potential buyers examine when purchasing a house — but since square footage values are frequently estimated rather than accurately measured, your listing might show less Gross Living Area (GLA) than it can take credit for. An inaccurate GLA could potentially reduce the selling price of the 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 carried out by a certified appraiser (after any renovation that might have affected square footage).

Material for agents

To ensure that your client's property sells at a price that accurately reflects true market value, we advise requesting a home measurement of the property. Clients, and especially potential buyers, will be grateful for your thoroughness, and you can be certain that the GLA on your client's listing is a true representation of their home. A floorplan can also be an excellent marketing tactic for enticing potential buyers since they can review the layout and details of the house before and after a walkthrough.
