As a buyer, would you tend to dismiss a house without having visited it, if you looked at the floorplan provided and thought 'no, that won't work for us, we don't need to see the house'?
I'm about to go on with an estate agent who is adamant that floorplans provided with house particulars get in the way - she thinks that they make it too easy for potential viewers to dismiss a house without having seen it, and that if there is no floorplan, just some tantalising photos and a brief spec, they are far more likely to book a viewing and then maybe consider the house on its own merits.
ALL the other estate agents we 'interviewed' said floorplans were essential and didn't act as a deterent. Which I think says something. This agent will let us have one if we desperately want, but she is definitely anti- them, and says it's based on her personal experience of selling houses.
Thoughts, please?
