How many square meters is a 1,000 sq ft apartment?

1,000 sq ft is 92.903 m². A 1,500 sq ft home is 139.35 m² and a 2,000 sq ft home is 185.81 m².

Why is the factor 0.0929 and not 0.3048?

Because area is two lengths multiplied. A square foot is 0.3048 m × 0.3048 m = 0.09290304 m². For a quick estimate, divide the square feet by 10 and take off 7%: 1,000 → 100 → 93 m².
