If you only have a paper floor plan, you know how difficult it can be to use it in the sales or renovation process . Old drawings are often worn out, hard to read, and cannot be used digitally. This is where apartment plan digitization comes in – a solution that turns a paper drawing or an old PDF drawing into a professional AutoCAD file.
Why choose apartment plan digitalization?
Ideal for selling real estate or planning renovations
A clear and understandable digital drawing is created
You can get the files in PDF or DWG format, which can be used on any platform (also JPG or PNG image formats if desired)
Easy to share on real estate portals or with the construction team
Digitizing an apartment plan ensures that your property is presented in a dignified and professional manner. A clear drawing helps a potential buyer or builder quickly understand the layout of the rooms and plan the next step.
How is the digitalization of an apartment plan done?
The client sends a paper plan or a photo/scan file.
The drawing is digitized in AutoCAD, following the exact scale.
If necessary, missing dimensions, room names and areas will be added.
The end result is a clean, professional, and universally usable plan.
Example of work
The image below shows what the digitalization of an apartment plan looks like - on the left is the original paper plan, and on the right is the final result in digital form.
For this project, the client only sent us a paper plan, which was difficult to understand (too many details). The client wanted a solution that could be used both for selling the property and for planning future renovations - i.e. the plan had to be in an editable format (dwg).
During the digitalization process we added:
exact dimensions and names of rooms,
area calculations with m² accuracy,
The end result was a clean and professional AutoCAD drawing, ideal for publishing on portals and as a basis for builders. The client was very satisfied with the work and noted that the digital plan made his real estate advertisement much more attractive.

Summary
If you only have a plan on paper, digitizing your apartment plan is a quick and easy way to bring it up to date. Whether the goal is to sell, renovate, or archive - a digital drawing is clear, understandable, and always handy.
