Is it mandatory for listings to have floor plans?

Have you ever found yourself frustrated trying to find a floor plan when searching for a new home? You’re not alone. Many home buyers share the same frustration. They don’t want to waste their time looking at a home, especially if it doesn’t have the features they are looking for.

But why do so many home sellers (and their REALTORS®) fail to include a floor plan in their listings? The answer is not clear, but what we do know is that almost 70% of buyers find floor plans very useful. In fact, many won’t even view a home that doesn’t have one.

A floor plan is a visual representation of the layout and design of a home. It helps buyers understand the flow of the space and how they can use it. With a floor plan, buyers can easily see the size and layout of each room, as well as the location of doors, windows, and other important features. This can be especially helpful if they are looking for specific features in a home, such as a large kitchen or a dedicated home office.

But the benefits don’t stop there. A floor plan can also save buyers time and energy during their home search. They can quickly compare properties and eliminate those that do not meet their needs.

At The Germyn Group, we understand the importance of a floor plan in selling a home and want to take out the guesswork of where to find house floor plans.

That’s why we make them standard with every home we list. We don’t want to hamper our sellers’ chances of selling or burden them with showings from buyers that will never buy their home because the features don’t work for their needs. We also don’t charge extra for a floor plan because we believe it’s a crucial and valuable tool for your success.

So, when it comes time to sell your home, be sure to demand a floor plan. And if you want to take it a step further, you can also check out our 3D modeling service, which puts your home right in the buyers’ lap virtually for them to explore.
