Floor plans reveal what photographs often do not:
the proportion of the rooms and the traffic flows
between them. A buyer can instantly see how they
will use the space and if it suits them. Here are
some testimonials from experts who use floor plans
with much success . . .
"Those
who are downsizing scrutinize the floor plan most
thoroughly. We have a lot of move-down buyers —
empty-nesters taking their furniture with them who
want to be sure everything will fit. They are
concerned with the exactness of what they are
getting." - Kara Opanowicz,
a vice president of architecture for K. Hovnanian
Homes
“After
viewing 25 homes, which are you going to remember?
The ones you are holding paperwork on.” - Christine Pardo,
Kroll Realty |

Agent X found that buyers were relying heavily on
the Internet to find and short list properties. One
of the most common email requests was from buyers asking
if a floor plan was available.
She found that
buyers are interested in specific features and
layouts that a floor plan shows and that marketing a
property with a
floor plan is an excellent use of her resources.
Including a floor plan on printed materials and
on her website meant spending less time with
unproductive visits and more time with people who
had pre-approved the house layout.
