Floorplan

James Donald Homes offer a unique style of floorplan, designed with buyer curiousity in mind. With both metric and imperial measurements of the rooms (including ceiling heights) potential buyers can geta much clearer idea of the space and with our added 'Site Plan' and Compass they will be able to gain a strong grasp of the exterior space and layout too. A good floorplans is utterly crucial - a recent statistic showed that over 40% of potential buyers will lose interest in the marketing and not request a visit to a property that does not have a floorplan.

360 Degree Virtual Tour

Following the housing market closures during the 2020 lockdown’s, these 360 degree virtual tours have now become almost an essential part of any premium marketing package.

Another fantastic use of technology to show properties off prior to an internal visit these video tours give a great flavour to the buyers of the flow of the property.

Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)

An EPC is a compulsory requirement when selling a property in England and must be in place when the property is listed for sale. The picture shows a Sample EPC, containing information on how efficient your property is and its grading at the time of assessment from bands A to G. As you can also see the EPC suggests typical energy usage and recommendations of how to reduce energy consumption and improve the energy efficiency of the property.
