Compare the two drawings of the first floor side-by-side. First of all we SHOW THE WHOLE PROPERTY, not just the structure. Do you think buyers are interested in THE PROPERTY and what it looks like --- not just how the rooms are laid out in the house? It's the same house... it took me about 45 minutes to erase all the patented SMARTePLAN features that make SMARTePLANS unique and different from every other floor plan you've ever seen ... in order to get down to this very pedestrian and totally unremarkable floor plan graphic.
Now think about this .... if it takes me almost 45 minutes to ERASE FEATURES from the SMARTePLAN and dumb-it-down to a drawing consisting of very basic elements --- is that REALLY the the quality of materials you want selling your River Oaks Home? Is there some reason you want to reduce your River Oaks property image to one that simulates a Texas tract home built by a production builder? Where are the ornately carved moldings, or inlaid parquet floors or any number of elegant features and exquisite appointments that are part of this property?
The PDF format enlarges to 6400% percent so no detail is overlooked. These files are no longer linked (as they would be if the property was actually on the market) but you can easily see the extraordinary attention to detail and craftsmanship taken to portray and convey the best attributes of this property.
SMARTePLANs are patented online floor plan pictorials that upload onto MLS and become part of the property information available to potential buyers on the MLS 24/7. The detailed pictorial with 14 embedded photographs showcases your property's features and finishes to interested buyers ... and for 8 years in a row.... have helped sell homes faster (less Days on Market) and for a higher price (Over 20% sold above list price in 2011).
Professionals and executives routinely transfer in and out of Houston. Months before they transfer, buyers and buyer's agents are reviewing properties and studying those with SMARTePLANS online. Photos launch out of the drawing with a click of a mouse and detailed text descriptions are linked to each photo as it launches ---- NOW the photos make sense because they are viewed in relationship to the drawing --- instead of looking at a string of disconnected and random photographs. Potential buyers a world away can very confidently tour the property online and digest every detail. Properties marketed with SMARTePLANS ALWAYS make their short list ... before they ever get to Houston, they KNOW these are the properties they want to see. 
If you are getting ready to put your River Oaks home on the market ... give yourself every edge, every advantage. Discuss this with your potential listing agent.
Or what's even easier? Give Walter Bering and Victoria Minton of Martha Turner Properties a call. They are the listing agents who marketed this River Oaks Home last year. Listed at $8M, it sold quite rapidly.

===============
SMARTePLANS® have photos embedded inside the floor plan that launch with a mouse click .... each photo arrow is positioned in the plan where the photographer was standing --- so you can see where he was and what he was aiming at when he took the shot ... in relationship to the drawing. Beneath the photo is a description of that room. Once the photo launches you have a choice to link back to the floor plan and choose another photo, or read the amenities text for the WHOLE property (not just that particular room). All the files are inter-linked so you can seamlessly click around this property, viewing the photos and reading the descriptions. This is not a video ... you choose what you want to view ... or not. You can see samples at www.smarteplans.com
[NOTE: SMARTePLANS® are PDF files so they magnify to over 100%. When the file launches, click "View" on the top toolbar and make sure there is a checkmark next to the toolbar named "Select and Zoom". Every time you tap the plus key inside the circle the view screen enlarges (the minus key shrinks the magnification); and the magnifying glass with the plus sign in it marquee selects a specfic area of the drawings to be enlarged. Using the hand key and the scroll bars, its easy to move around inside the file, and then magnifying the features you want to see.]
