What is the importance of building measurement as relates to estate management in the construction industry?

Answer 1

Surveyed drawings of buildings are very valuable. For any work or change in the building, access to accurate CAD files save time and money for everyone on your project team. If you can provide consultants with accurate data, they can do their job faster and minimize the risk of costly mistakes and changes. If you are involved in leasing, you will have a competitive advantage if you can distribute accurate drawings of your available space. The leasing process will go much more smoothly if you can provide CAD files that let your prospective tenants quickly develop test-fit designs. If rents are to be based on square foot rates, accurately measured drawings are required to calculate area, whether you are using the BOMA standard, or another building measurement standard. For ongoing repair and maintenance, CAD files will reduce the guesswork for consultants and contractors. As a landlord, you will save money because you consultants will have to spend less time doing their own site verifications.
