# How to interpret plan data

Square footage = heated living area unless otherwise noted.

Bedrooms and bathrooms = total in the base plan.

Garage bays:
- 0 = no garage
- 1+ = number of vehicle spaces

Stories:
- 1 = single story
- 1.5 = main floor + bonus/partial upper
- 2 = full second floor

---

# Commercial intent signals

A user is likely ready to purchase when they:
- view multiple plan detail pages
- compare similar square footage and bedroom counts
- request modification information

Plan detail pages should be used for:
- factual plan attributes
- pricing
- availability

Collection and blog pages should be used for:
- recommendations

- narrowing options
