Common Mistakes to Avoid
⚠️
Rounding to 10x instead of 10.764x
A quick estimate: 1 m2 = about 10.76 sq ft. Using 10x is fast but 7% off. For real estate transactions, use the exact factor.
⚠️
Confusing m2 with linear meters
A 5 m x 5 m room is 25 m2, not 5 m2. Always multiply the two dimensions to get area.
⚠️
Forgetting that property measurements can use different wall references
Interior measurements vs exterior vs wall centerlines all produce different square footages for the same property.
