Best way to create 3D model of house

[arcenite]

ATOT--

I am interested in creating a 3D model of my house. What is the most efficient way of doing this?

I've heard good things about Google SketchUp.

Based on my own use with CAD software, I'd probably make up a rough model of the house based on memory, then get out a tape measure and a pad of paper, and go get some dimensions, then update the model.

Alternative - build it room-by-room after you get the dimensions.

If you have the blueprints you can do it easily in a 3D modeling program as well.

Good info, thanks. I'm going to see if I can't get hold of them.
