Is this the right study for you?

You're planning a single cottage or ADU on land you own (or are about to buy). This study gives you the cost, site, and zoning picture you need before you commit to building, with a clear roadmap for the next phase.

What we evaluate

  • Zoning compliance
  • Setbacks
  • Utilities
  • Site placement

What you get

  • A construction cost estimate for your Compact Cottage home or ADU
  • A conceptual site sketch
  • Guidance on how to get started with your project

You're ready if…

  • You own the land, or you're under contract for it
  • You're pre-approved for a construction loan (for a primary residence), or
  • You've spoken with a lender about an equity line or a lot split (for an ADU)

Timeline

City water/sewer: ~1 month  ·  Well/septic: 2–3 months

Not included

Comprehensive site plan, construction drawings, and design-selection consulting are not part of this study. Those happen in the next phase, once you're ready to commit to building. We'll walk you through what's next when we present your findings.
