If there are no measurements, they are unlikely to ring an estate agent to find the answer and will, once again, swiftly move on

When you're trying to sell or rent your home, floor plans are key! A study conducted by Rightmove found that having a floor plan on a listing increased the amount of clicks on a property by 52 percent - and it is crazy to think that some agents don't include it (especially on a rental property) or have a floor plan with no measurements! 

EweMove Estate Agents in Ashby include a floor plan, both 2D and 3D, which allows the house to be brought to life as well as a plot plan which shows both the garden and the driveway that a property may have. For both sales and rentals!

The floor plan EweMove provides also includes the measurements and furniture that is in the room currently.

This helps in two ways: it prevents a potential buyer having to flick between a floor plan and the description where they may (if they're lucky with some agents) find measurements.

With such a short attention span common in the modern world, buyers won't want to faff around doing this and they will swiftly move on and disregard your property!

The other benefit of having the measurements on your floor plan is that a buyer can quickly identify if the house fits their requirements. For example, they may need a house with three double bedrooms, and can spot this quickly on a floor plan.

If there are no measurements, they are unlikely to ring an estate agent to find the answer and will, once again, swiftly move on and disregard your property even though it could have been the perfect house for them!

EweMove includes both metric and imperial measurements on their floor plans too.

EweMove also includes coloured floor plans in their listings which clearly show the type of room.

For example, bedrooms are coloured pink, reception rooms are coloured purple and bathrooms/toilets are coloured blue, etc. This helps a potential buyer envisage what each room 'could' be used for.

To summarise, a floor plan from EweMove will include measurements in both metric and imperial units, a version in 2D, 3D and a plot plan and colour-coded rooms including the current furniture.

Floor plans are so important in a listing because they allow people to visualise the space better which leads to more clicks and ultimately more viewings which can turn into offers, leading to the best possible outcome for you.
