First, I’ll tell you a short story.
Harry and his wife live in a rental apartment in Darwin. They are thinking about moving to Perth for a better job and a better future for their child. Harry and his wife are looking for their dream home in the suburbs of Perth. They look through online listings, and both love one property in the Tuart Hill area, a single-storey home with three bedrooms. But there was one problem on the listing. The agent who listed the property has good photographs, but… Harry was a little confused about that listing having a bad copy of the floor plan, and the photographs did not tell the full story of the home and did not give a clear sense of the home’s layout.
Harry looks at another listing with the same 3-bed single storey, and yes, that listing has good photographs and also has a good, clean-designed floor plan. Harry’s wife also loves the property, and now they are confident about buying their dream home. They called the agent and booked an on-site inspection.
This clearly shows how a floor plan helps remote buyers and online property seekers.
Now in this blog, I’ll explain how you can get your old floor plan redrawn into an easy-to-understand design at an affordable price with a hassle-free service.

What Is a Floor Plan Redraw?
A floor plan redraw is the process of redesigning an old-style floor plan into a modern, marketing-ready layout for online property listings as a presentation floor plan. The old floor plan usually includes the builder’s or architect’s floor plans. As we know, these floor plans are hard to read and often cluttered and difficult for buyers to understand.
As a real estate agent, you may remember situations where a client shares an old floor plan when you ask for one. Yes! That old builder’s floor plan. Sometimes you may need to purchase the floor plan from the council when your client doesn’t have any original copy of the floor plan, or you have to measure the whole house to create the new floor plan.
Why is a floor plan redraw important?
When I was doing market research for our company (HOMO Plans), I just looked on the listing website—realestate.com.au. Especially in Perth, many agents either don’t use floor plans or use low-quality ones like the builder’s floor plan.
If you view your property listing from a buyer’s perspective, or pretend like you have to buy a home and look online just like Harry. And like Harry, you love the property that has good photographs but doesn’t have a floor plan or has a bad copy of a floor plan that you can’t understand. This is why a clear, well-designed floor plan helps convert inquiries into serious buyers.
A well-designed floor plan improves buyer understanding and engagement and also builds trust and professionalism. And it increases time spent on your listing and inquiry rates.
Here are some real estate experts’ thoughts about floor plans:
When do you need a floor plan redraw?
If you have an existing floor plan copy and it’s a builder’s floor plan, then you need your floor plan to be redrawn because the builder’s floor plan has too many details that are not easy to understand, and also it will not look professional on your listing.
If your client doesn’t have a floor plan at that time, you need to request the council to get the builder’s floor plan, after which you need to redraw it.
If you don’t have any floor plans or you don’t want to get them from the council (this will save you money), then you have to go do an on-site measurement and make a rough sketch of the house plan, and then you can redraw your floor plan.
If you have an existing floor plan but there were major construction changes in the house and those details are not included in the floor plan, then you also need your floor plan to be redrawn.
If you don’t like the floor plan design, the previous agent redrew the floor plan from his photographer. Yes, some photographer-created floor plans are basic and rushed, focusing more on speed than design quality, and they redraw them in a basic design and charge you 100+ dollars for just floor plan redraws. So get the right service at the right place from someone who has professional skill.
Benefits of a Professional Floor Plan Redraw.
Better buyer engagement: Buyers don’t just look at photos; they study floor plans. An unclear floor plan can instantly reduce buyer interest, even if it’s a great property.
Cost-effective marketing upgrade: A redraw of the existing old floor plan is far more affordable than organizing new site measurements.
Tells the story: As we know, that floor plan tells the whole property story better than photographs. That's why buyers spend most of their time looking at the floor plan.
Consistent branding: Floor plan redraws maintain a consistent look across all of your listings, improving brand recognition and professionalism.
