# Uniform Appraisal Dataset 10 Unit Interior

## Levels in Unit

Levels are usable areas or living areas.

- The foyer (or landing) area in a split foyer is not considered a separate level.
- A sunken living room is not considered a separate level.
- An uppermost story is considered a level when there is permanent stair access (not drop stairs or a scuttle), and is not considered an attic.
  - The level may include finished or unfinished space.
  - When an attic is the uppermost story and requires structural changes to convert to livable space, it is not considered a level. For government agency appraisals, attics are reported in the Dwelling Exterior section (8.017).
- Levels are specific to each unit.
  - Example: If the entire below grade area is an ADU, it would be captured in the Unit Interior section for the ADU, and not for the main dwelling unit.
- When ANSI is the applicable standard, partially below grade is considered below grade. Represent the level appropriately.
- Noncontinuous finished area in the dwelling that is not part of any unit is reported in the Dwelling Exterior section (8.046-8.048) and not here.

Levels in Unit reflects the number of rows in the Level and Room Detail table (10.029-10.033).
