Home Measurements & Floor Plans
ANSI Compliant Appraiser Sketches
As of April 1st, 2022, a major change quietly reshaped the appraisal world: for most mortgage-related appraisals, home measurements must now follow ANSI® Z765-2021 guidelines.
ANSI, short for the American National Standards Institute, created a national rulebook for how to measure the square footage of residential properties. It's all about creating consistency and accuracy across the board in the real estate industry.
But here’s the kicker—this new standard means your home’s measured size could now differ from what’s shown on tax records or older appraisals. And since square footage is a major driver of value, even small measurement differences can carry big price implications.
DRA Appraisals offers ANSI compliant measuring services and floor plans that are an excellent opportunity for realtors to market the property or for for sale by owner listing to present their homes professionally.
Adding a floor plan to your listing can boost interest and make your property stand out—giving buyers a clear view of the home’s layout and flow—showing room sizes, window and door placements, and how spaces connect.
