Professional existing-condition documentation for hotels, commercial buildings, apartments, venues and other properties throughout East Tennessee and the surrounding region.
Tennessee Virtual Tours combines on-site reality capture, floor plans, CAD drawings and project-specific building documentation to help architects, designers, owners and property teams understand an existing space before planning what comes next.
Optional review by a licensed architect is available for projects requiring additional professional oversight.
Organized floor plans and existing-condition drawings delivered in project-appropriate digital formats for planning, reference and collaboration.
Project-specific three-dimensional building documentation that helps remote teams understand the layout and relationships within an existing space.
Matterport digital twins and supplemental property documentation create a visual record that can be reviewed long after the site visit.
Optional review by a licensed architect is available when a project requires additional professional oversight of the completed documentation.
Renovation, design and facility projects often begin with incomplete drawings, outdated plans or no reliable documentation at all. That forces project teams to spend valuable time reconstructing the existing space before they can begin evaluating what should change.
Existing-condition documentation creates a practical starting point. It can help property owners, architects, designers, contractors and remote stakeholders understand the current layout without requiring every participant to make a separate site visit.
The appropriate deliverables depend on the property, the available source information and how the documentation will be used. We help determine whether the project requires a straightforward floor plan, 2D CAD files, a 3D building model, a Matterport digital twin or a combination of these services.
Depending on the project scope, available deliverables may include:
File types, included building elements, measurement expectations and the intended level of detail are defined before production begins.
Document guest-room types, corridors, common areas, amenity spaces and existing hospitality properties before renovation or repositioning.
Create usable records of offices, retail spaces, restaurants, venues and other commercial properties.
Document representative units, unit variations, shared areas and existing layouts for property records and planning.
Give architects, designers and project teams a clearer understanding of the space before design and construction decisions begin.
Matterport capture provides an interactive visual record of the building as it existed during the appointment. Project teams can remotely revisit rooms, examine spatial relationships and confirm visible conditions without relying entirely on photographs or memory.
Depending on the required deliverables, the digital twin may be combined with floor plans, CAD drawings, room-type measurements, photographs and other property data.

We discuss the property, intended use, required file formats, level of detail and any known project constraints.
The building is captured systematically using the appropriate reality-capture equipment and supplemental measurements.
The captured information is processed into the agreed floor plans, CAD drawings, models and supporting documentation.
Completed files are reviewed against the agreed scope and delivered digitally. Architect review can be added when required.
When additional professional oversight is needed, completed documentation can be submitted to a licensed architect for review. Architect-reviewed deliverables are available as an optional service based on the project scope and intended use.
Architect review does not automatically mean that documents are signed, sealed, permit-ready or approved by a local building authority. If a project requires sealed construction documents, engineering, code analysis or permitting services, those requirements should be identified before the project begins.
“CAD drawings,” “as-built plans” and “building models” can mean very different things to different project teams. Before capture begins, we work to define:
Establishing these details early helps ensure that the capture plan and final deliverables support the actual project rather than an assumed use.
Tennessee Virtual Tours has provided professional reality capture since 2016 and has documented thousands of spaces using Matterport Pro-series equipment.
Our experience includes vacation-rental portfolios, hotels, apartments, commercial spaces and subcontracted reality-capture projects. Larger properties can be organized around representative room types, common areas, floors, wings or other logical project divisions.
Our primary service area includes Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, Sevierville, Knoxville, Morristown, Rogersville, Kingsport, Johnson City and Bristol.
Larger commercial, hospitality and building-documentation projects may also be available throughout Tennessee, Western North Carolina, Southwest Virginia and surrounding markets.
Existing-condition documentation records the layout and visible condition of a building at a particular time. It can include floor plans, measurements, CAD drawings, 3D models, photography and an interactive digital twin.
Available formats depend on the project scope and production method. Deliverables may include PDF floor plans, DWG files, RVT files and other project-specific documentation. Required formats should be identified before capture.
No. Standard existing-condition floor plans, CAD files and building models are not automatically architectural, engineering or construction documents. They are created for the intended use and level of detail defined in the project scope.
Architect-reviewed means that the completed documentation has been submitted to a licensed architect for professional review. It does not automatically mean the documents are signed, sealed, permit-ready or approved by a local authority.
Not as part of the standard documentation service. If sealed construction documents or permitting services are required, tell us before the project begins so the appropriate licensed professionals and project requirements can be identified.
Accuracy depends on the capture method, property conditions and selected deliverables. Measurement expectations and tolerances should be discussed before capture, especially when the files will support renovation or design decisions.
Often, yes. However, furniture, stored items and inaccessible areas can limit what is visible or measurable. The property should be prepared according to the project’s required level of documentation before capture.
Yes. Larger projects can be organized by floor, wing, room type, building section or another logical capture plan. Contact us with the property type, approximate size and required deliverables for project-specific recommendations.
Tell us about the property, its approximate size, location and how the completed documentation will be used.
Send the required file formats, intended use and project specifications. We’ll help develop an efficient local capture and documentation plan.
