A Great App for Realtors, Interior Designers, Decorators & Home Builders
Are in need of a floor plan you can market to future home buyers? Do you have a commercial property you would like to rent out? Are you an interior designer or home builder? I’d like to introduce you to a great app I think is perfect for realtors, designers and home builders. Thanks to a new app from Sensopia, anyone designing, selling or renting a property can have a floor plan in minutes. The company has come up with a free iOS app, MagicPlan, which lets you create virtual floor plans using images that you take with your phone or iPad. Using these images, MagicPlan measures your rooms and creates virtual drawings of your floor plan just by taking pictures. You can save PDF, JPEG, and DXF files of the floor plans, or publish and interactive floor plan online.
California Home and Design took a test drive of the app:
Admittedly, it takes a few tries to get used to the overlay images and grids as you rotate in the center of a room, but the plans are correctable, and we love that you get the dimensions of walls, doors and windows in addition to the general layout. The app does not do curves (yet) and new construction is easier than vintage, plus MagicPlan seems easier to use on an iPad than an iPhone. We wouldn’t buy a sofa without it.
When writing this post, I searched for a demo video and found this one on YouTube.
