I am considering a Revit subscription and have a quick question...

Assuming you have your templates all set up, how long would it take on average to draw a basic set of plans for a typical home, say a 1400 sf ranch with 2-car garage. Assume you would need a site plan, foundation plan, floor plan, and elevations. (No 3-D, electrical/mechanical, or documentation)

I am trying to get a rough comparison of Revit compared to Datacad, which I use now. The parametric features of Revit are very appealing, but I know datacad well and have a lot of shortcuts. Thanks

You have a design, and are just drawing? Or you are designing the house and drawing CD's?

If you had the design, I could see doing the house in a day. If you were designing and drawing, maybe two to three days.
