The terms "built-up area" and "built-in area" are commonly used by real estate agents, but they have slightly different meanings:
Built-Up Area: This typically refers to the total area encompassing all the spaces within the walls of the property, including the internal rooms, corridors, staircases, and sometimes balconies or terraces. It represents the total enclosed space within the property's boundaries.
Built-In Area: This term usually refers to the areas within the property that are fixed or built into the structure, such as built-in cabinets, closets, or fixtures like kitchen counters and bathroom vanities. It excludes open spaces like balconies or terraces.
Both terms may or may not include roof terraces or car porch areas, depending on the specific property and how the measurement is conducted. It's essential to clarify this with the seller or agent.
Regarding "voids," which are empty spaces created by high ceilings or architectural features, they are typically not included in the calculation of either built-up or built-in area. These spaces represent volume rather than floor area and are often left open for aesthetic or functional purposes, such as creating a sense of spaciousness or allowing natural light to penetrate deeper into the building. However, if the voids are enclosed and usable as part of the floor space, they may be included in the measurements, but this would depend on local regulations and the specific property's design.
