Which do you use on your sketch.

Frankly I don’t know how the UAD came up with .1 for a half bath. It makes no sense, unless their reader machines are too dumb to know better. I can imagine the homeowner that gets the appraisal going, “What the heck!! I have a tenth of a bath!!”

It does make it easier to denote multiple half baths. 3.3 is more descriptive & accurate than 4.5

Yes, you are correct. I seldom if ever come across a house with 2 half baths. But if you did…seems reasonable.
 
The reason it was called a powder room, being on the 1st floor typically the wife might do a last minute check to make sure she powder puffed herself correctly before leaving.

For the guys it's a p room.

On a sketch, I always put 1/2. The entire real estate world understands that. nobody understands .1. that was done to satisfy computers, not real humans.

I'm obviously stuck in past times, maybe.
do you use 1/2 bath on drawing
or, do you use .1 bath

Thanks, with the new .1 bath, the other may be forgotten and not understood soon.
.5 Ba
 
Half Bath looks better than 0.5 bath or 0.1 bath. It's all about good presentation on sketches.
I hate to admit but when I was doing so many appraisals back in the good old days, I might have missed a bathroom on the sketch. Reviewers caught that.
Now with less appraisals to do, I don't have that problem.
