I wouldn't say they are in or out in my area - they aren't really that common, at least in the listings. I agree with Ron and Alexandra Seigel that having a professional create them is probably best. With newer homes owners often have them from the builder.

They are required here on every listing - either by measurements (appraisal style) or actual floorplans.

I pay $125 for mine - they are professionally measured and drawn.

Buyers really like them. Our area is high tech and very logical. Some buyers prefer to see floor plans over photos. It is very common to hire an appraiser to do measurements and a floor plan.

Unless it's new construction, I rarely see floor plans in residential. In CRE, we use existing floor plans & CAD drawings quite a bit. Usable/rentable square footage is as exact science as we can make it. Lots of $$ can depend on it.
The client and/or their architect are most likely going to generate those plans. There have been times that we have drawn them up in simple and unofficial form, to get/give an idea. I've seen permit files with drawings a lot worse than mine! LOL

This is true. It would depend on the house, usually if it's a custom the seller has them. With a subdivision house, easy to use builder.

I seem to be the only person doing that & I don't know why. I'd like to have it as a buyer.

I've seen them around $125 like Debe said.

I've only had a couple people request them and those were out of state buyers. Most of the condos here include unit floor plans in their condo docs so it is fairly easy to get one if you need it.

I can't say if they are in or out... as very few agents do them. I ALWAYS do a floorplan and have for 20 years. After more photos it seems to be the second most requested thing from buyers. And I get an accurate, defensible square footage with them, which saves me time. My floor plans cost anywhere from $90-150 depending on size of home. A really large home could run me $200-250. I know my guy charges $600 for homes over 10,000 square feet, but I've never listed on quite that large.

Not cheap, but usually it is a part of a photography package. I think, less that 10% of all listings offer floor plans. I would not say buyers or sellers feel ''wow'' if fliers/marketing materials have them.
