Put the comparison into perspective.

See the calculator in action with example inputs, then check the floor-area basis behind your own comparison.

Plan it together

Make room for a better conversation.

Sit down with the plan, look at the rooms together and turn “will it work?” into something you can check.

Compare the same kind of area

Example inputs show how price and internal area work together in the calculator.

The calculated price per square metre for the sample inputs. This is an illustration, not a valuation.

Give each level a closer look

m²

Use one area definition

A calculation is only comparable when every area uses the same boundary and inclusions. Start with enclosed internal dwelling area, then record parking, outdoor areas, storage and land separately.

Original worked example

The higher-priced home can still cost less per square metre

This hypothetical FloorSQ example uses two four-bedroom, two-bathroom homes with one powder room. It is not an actual listing or a valuation.

Comparable internal area
142 m²
Price per m²
$8,803/m²

Wattle Home

Price
$1,310,000
Comparable internal area

Price per m²

What this result can—and cannot—tell you

  • Use it to screen nearby sales and identify properties that deserve a closer look.
  • Check the area source and inclusions before treating two figures as comparable.
  • Consider location, land, condition, layout, title, parking, views and sale date separately.
  • Do not treat the result as a valuation or an estimate of market value.

Comparison aid only. FloorSQ does not provide a property valuation, financial advice or a legal definition of floor area.
