If 5 people measured the sq footage of a house they would get 5 different figures. Sq footage should always be quoted to the best of someone’s knowledge. as realtors wqe dont have the ability to provide exact figures nor does anyone else. It depends upon how you measure a house and it can be done many ways. What most agents do and what is the best thing for them to do is to list a sq footage and cite the source it comes from. I typically go to the tax records as most agents do) and cite that sq footage. In many cases it is wrong but as soon as we put in our own figures someone will come along measure it another way and sue us. When it comes down to it, does the exact sq footage really matter? You go into a home and see if it works for you. Is a 2500 sq ft home that doesnt work for you any better than a 2200 sq ft home does? Buyer often get too hung up on what the sq footage is. It either works for someone or it doesnt.
