However, there are two main approaches that are commonly used:<\/p>\n<p>1. **Exterior measurements:** This method involves measuring the perimeter of the house from the outside walls. The length and width of each exterior wall are measured and multiplied together to obtain the area of each floor. The areas of all the floors are then summed up to determine the total square footage. Garages and unfinished basements are generally not included in this calculation.<\/p>\n<p>2. **Interior measurements:** In this method, the interior walls are measured from the inside of the house. The length and width of each room are multiplied together to calculate the area of each individual space. The areas of all the rooms are added up to obtain the total square footage of the house. This method is more accurate as it takes into account the actual usable space within the property.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s important to note that certain areas of the house may not be included in the square footage calculation, such as closets, hallways, staircases, or utility rooms. Additionally, the square footage of outdoor spaces like patios, balconies, or terraces is usually not included unless they are enclosed and can be used as living space.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Does_the_square_footage_include_the_garage\"><\/span>1. Does the square footage include the garage?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nNo, the garage is typically not included in the square footage calculation unless it has been converted into livable space.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Are_finished_basements_counted_in_the_square_footage\"><\/span>2. Are finished basements counted in the square footage?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nA finished basement is often included in the square footage, but unfinished basements are usually excluded.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_What_about_screened-in_porches_or_sunrooms\"><\/span>3. What about screened-in porches or sunrooms?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nEnclosed and climate-controlled porches or sunrooms are sometimes included in the square footage calculation, while open or unenclosed spaces are excluded.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Do_bay_windows_count_towards_square_footage\"><\/span>4. Do bay windows count towards square footage?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nBay windows are typically not included in the square footage calculation as they are generally not habitable spaces.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Are_balconies_included_in_the_square_footage\"><\/span>5. Are balconies included in the square footage?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nUnenclosed balconies are usually excluded from the square footage, but enclosed ones that can be used as living areas might be included.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_How_is_the_square_footage_of_multi-story_homes_calculated\"><\/span>6. How is the square footage of multi-story homes calculated?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nEach floor&#8217;s area is computed separately by measuring the length and width of each level, and then added together to obtain the total square footage.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Is_there_a_standard_method_followed_worldwide\"><\/span>7. Is there a standard method followed worldwide?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nNo, there is no universally standardized approach to calculating square footage. It can vary between countries, regions, and even individual appraisers.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Can_the_square_footage_be_measured_by_appraisers_or_real_estate_agents\"><\/span>8. Can the square footage be measured by appraisers or real estate agents?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nYes, professional appraisers and real estate agents often measure the square footage of a property as part of their evaluation process.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_How_accurate_are_square_footage_measurements\"><\/span>9. How accurate are square footage measurements?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>\nWhile measurements are generally accurate, there can be small discrepancies due to differences in measurement techniques or the presence of irregular-shaped rooms.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Why_is_square_footage_important\"><\/span>10.
