Home Measurement

How Home Measurement Pays Off

In today’s highly competitive real estate industry, there has never been a greater need for the accurate reporting of a property’s true living area. All too often, the gross living area reported in public records differs from what exists.

Whether you’re a Realtor, a home buyer or a home seller, it’s important to know the true size of the home.

• If you’re an agent, you are required you report accurate information in your MLS listing.

• If you’re a home seller, the accurate pricing of your home is dependent obtaining an accurate measure of the home’s true size.

• If you’re the buyer, you could be overpaying if your offer price is based on inaccurate data.

Here at Valuation Technology we offer two types of home measurement services. Our home measurements and floor plans are documents that support many important real estate dealings, ranging from individual home sales to tax protests.
