Which build licence do you need?
| One home | Included with every package. You may build a single dwelling from this plan set on one lot. Keep the files for life and re-download whenever you need them. |
| Several homes | Add one build licence for each extra home, $499.00 apiece. The drawings do not change; the licence simply covers more dwellings. Common for spec builders putting up two or three of the same model. |
| Unlimited homes | $1,499.00 removes the build limit permanently, on any number of lots. Already included at no extra cost in the Complete Build Package. |
| What no licence allows | Reselling, sharing, sub-licensing or republishing the drawings themselves, in any format. The licence covers construction, not redistribution. |
| Upgrading later | You can buy an additional or unlimited licence at any time after your original order. Email us your order number and we will apply it to the same plan. |
Prefer paper? Add five printed sets.
| What arrives | Five complete construction sets printed full size on 24 x 36 inch bond paper, folded and boxed, plus the same instant PDF download. |
| Why five | One for the permit office, one for your lender or appraiser, one for your framer, one for your subs and one to keep clean on your own desk. |
| Cost | $379.00 plus shipping, calculated at checkout from your address. |
| Turnaround | Printed to order and dispatched within 3 to 5 business days. Your digital files are delivered the moment you pay, so nothing waits on the post. |
| Revisions | Prints are produced from the plan as drawn. If you are also ordering modifications, wait for the revised set before adding prints so the paper matches the final design. |

A central hall with washer/dryer space connects two comfortable bedrooms, each with its own closet, and a full bathroom with corner tub. Out back, a 30'x7'6" covered rear porch doubles your outdoor living space.
