Worked example

A double-storey house with 900 sq ft per floor = 1,800 sq ft total. That converts to 6.61 marla of covered area, or 0.331 kanal — a useful figure when comparing with the 10-marla plot it stands on. Builders often quote covered area loosely, so measure room by room if the figure affects your price.
