Excellent point.
Also, getting a permit depends on much more than the drawings.
We are in the early stages of building a separate garden house (1500 sq ft) and have started the permit work well in advance of the actual design. Set backs, critical area issues, septic, etc. will drive the eventual build.
So we used Sketchup to work the art of the possible with the permit folks before we settle on the final design.
Sounds goofy, but there is no sense getting particular until we know it will be allowed.
