Is this the right study for you?

You're planning two structures on one property (a primary residence plus an accessory dwelling, or a duplex) and you want both evaluated together. We look at the lot as a whole so the two structures work together from a zoning, site, and cost perspective.

What we evaluate

  • Zoning compliance
  • Setbacks
  • Utilities
  • Site placement (for both structures)

What you get

  • A construction cost estimate for both structures
  • A conceptual site sketch showing both
  • 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
  • You're building both a primary residence and 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.
