If the property you scanned is more than 5,000ft² (or 465m²) you will be charged additional processing fees. We'll explain here why and how we apply these fees.
Example
This table gives you an example of the extra fees based on the size of your property and what you order
Total area | only 2D products | PLUS 3D or |
less than 5,000ft² | none | none |
between 5,001ft² and 7,500ft² | $25/€ | $60/€ |
between 7,501ft² and 10,000ft² | $50/€ | $120/€ |
above 10,001ft² | $75/€ | $180/€ |
Preferred Photographers enjoy an exclusive 60% discount on the large property fee, along with a host of other benefits, which you can explore further here.
How do we calculate and apply these fees?
A $25/€ fee is applied for each additional 2,500ft² (232m2) after the first 5,000 up until 10,000.
If you order PLUS 3D or PLUS with CAD files we'll add another $35/€ to your order per additional 2,500ft² up until 10,000.
Please note that the area is not based on the GIA or GLA but on what is actually drawn (to the exception of some spaces). You can read more about How is the Total area calculated?
Why do we charge an extra processing fee?
Larger properties require additional time and effort to be processed: they simply cost more to produce. After studying our customers' behavior, we've set a limit that seemed fair to keep providing low-cost floor plans to the largest majority of our customers: only 10% of our orders are impacted by these fees.
Also, larger properties tend to sell at a higher price, therefore it's easier to pass along that extra fee. Again, it helps keep floor plans' prices lower for smaller properties.
