Questions before you begin?
Get answers to the most common questions.
Is this a construction plan set?
No. The Property Planning Kit is an early planning product. It helps you compare options and prepare for design, permitting, and consultation before purchasing construction drawings.
Is this only for people building an ADU?
It is especially useful for ADU decisions, but it can also help homeowners compare moving, renovating, adding space, or planning a future small home.
Can I use it before I choose a Dwelly plan?
Yes. The kit is designed to help you understand your property, goals, budget, and constraints before choosing a specific plan direction.
Does it replace a consultation?
No. It gives you a clearer starting point. If your project needs property-specific guidance, one-on-one consultations are available separately.
Is this a physical product?
No. It is a digital planning system made of PDFs, fillable worksheets, printable pages, checklists, and templates.
Does the purchase apply toward a Dwelly plan?
No purchase credit is currently listed for this kit. If a credit becomes available, Dwelly will state it clearly at purchase.
