Why do I use floor plans to market a house for sale? |
|
As I've mentioned before, sometimes I wonder whether flyers are good or evil. Having concluded, at least for the time being, that they are good --- I do take some extra time to try to make them as information-packed as possible. One part of flyer creation that I particularly enjoy is creating floor plans to give a passerby a solid understanding of the space and layout of a home. Below you'll see what these floor plans start as --- a very rough sketch as I measure the house. (click on the image for an enlarged version) ![]() Then, the fun begins --- as I re-create the floor plans on the computer to provide a more visually pleasing layout. (again, click the image for an enlarged version) ![]() The floor plans above are actually my first attempt at representing some of the exterior features (sidewalk, landscaping, fence) of a house. I did so for this particular home (1027 Stuart Street) because the owners have made such wonderful improvements outside the boundaries of the house --- a large patio, extensive flower beds and garden area, a hammock terrace, a solar-powered water feature, solar-powered landscaping accent lights, a fire pit and a storage building, all in a large, flat backyard enclosed with low-maintenance composite fencing.
