The use of floor plans in vacation rental listings and real estate is a dynamic marketing strategy that helps prospective guests and buyers visualize the property faster and greatly influences their decision to rent or buy. But as more professionals are catching on to this tactic, many property managers and real estate professionals are constantly seeking to boost their listings and gain an extra edge over their competitors.

CubiCasa is a technology and design company that provides the real estate market with clean, marketable 2D floor plans. The company takes sketches of floor plans and creates aesthetically appealing designs in a digital format the next business day.

CartoBlue boasts state-of-the-art technology that optimizes the floor plans created by CubiCasa by making them interactive with the addition of icons.
