The Owner's ADU Roadmap

Stop guessing. Get a clear yes or no for your property.

You can't tell from a Google search whether your lot qualifies, how big a home you can build, or what it will really cost — and plans cost thousands, spent before you even know it's possible. The Roadmap answers all of it, in writing, for a fixed price.

Rural Land Roadmap (Wise · Denton · Parker counties)

Everything in the ADU Roadmap plus septic/soil outlook, water, floodplain, and access analysis for acreage. Same 100% fee credit.

Do it yourself, hire us, or hire anyone — the Roadmap works for all three.

This is a complete self-serve package, not a teaser. Many owners run their own project with it — Texas lets homeowners pull their own permits in most cases, and we tell you exactly how. If you'd rather not, every dollar credits toward our services. And if you hire someone else, the report still just saved you from the expensive mistakes.

What's in your report

  1. Parcel verdict — eligible or not, with your city's rule cited
  2. Maximum ADU size for YOUR lot and home, with the model (A/B/C) that fits
  3. Site-visit findings with photos: utilities, delivery/crane access, drainage
  4. Constraint flags: floodplain, HOA/deed signals, owner-occupancy, parking
  5. The exact permit path for your city — portal, forms, fees, inspections, timeline
  6. Whether your city lets you pull your own permits as a homeowner (most do)
  7. A real all-in budget band — factory vs. site work, no fantasy numbers
  8. TDLR-certified manufacturer shortlist + the 10 questions to ask them
  9. What legally requires licensed trades (and how to hire them)
  10. The 5 mistakes that kill DIY ADU projects

What it's not

Not a survey, not engineering, not a permit guarantee — it's an expert, source-cited opinion that de-risks your decision, with conditions confirmed at the permit stage. We coordinate licensed surveyors and engineers when your project needs them; we don't perform licensed work ourselves, and we say so plainly.

How it works

Submit the form → free 15-minute call to confirm your property is worth a full Roadmap (if it obviously isn't, we'll tell you for free) → engagement letter + payment → site visit within a week → report in 5 business days → walkthrough call.

No payment now — the process starts with a free qualifying call.

Submitting this form doesn't commit you to anything, and we never sell or share your address. See our privacy policy.

Questions people ask

Is a modular home a trailer?
No — modular (IRC-code) homes meet the same building code as site-built houses and are permitted, appraised, and financed the same way. HUD-code manufactured homes are a different product; we work with modular.
Can I rent it out?
Depends on the city — Plano and Frisco require you to live on the property to rent the second unit. Your report flags this for your address.
Do I have to use you after the report?
No. The report stands on its own — and if you do proceed with us, the full fee credits toward the next step.
Are you licensed contractors?
We coordinate licensed surveyors/engineers and TDLR-certified factories; we don't perform surveying, engineering, or trades. As we register with TDLR we'll manage installations directly.
