Remodeling Your Homes? Check out Google SketchUp-a Free Tool

Google SketchUp

Model Your World

Thinking about remodeling your homes, kitchens or baths, considering a landscaping project, building a deck or any new project can be mind boggling. Just considering how to express your dream to the architect or contractor and knowing that you and they have the same vision can be a stressful experience.

The Google Gods have developed an absolutely great solution. It's a 3D modeling software, it's easy to learn, simple to use and best of all it is free. It's called Google SketchUp 6. Now before you start pulling your hair out, let these 4 autistic children show you how easy it can be.



Isn't that amazing and wonderful?

Google SketchUp also allows you to place your completed models into Google Earth using real-world coordinates and share them with the world using Google 3D Warehouse. You can learn more about Google SketchUp here.

Or you can download the free version here.


Google SketchUp can be found here.

There are tons of tutorial videos on YouTube which can be found here.

I think this is a great tool for both developing and communicating your specifications and hope you do too. Have fun with it, let your imagination go, see where it takes you.

As a Realtor I can think of many uses for this software. Are you working with a buyer who cannot seem to see what you see in a home? With this software you can show them the home they said they wanted within the very home they cannot see it in.

Did you list a fixer-upper? Show the consumer what that home will look like once it is fixed up.

There is no end to the possibilities this software offers.

Now go have some fun with it. Hey, it's free, you have nothing to lose.
