What are you actually building?

Where is the land?

This is the question the whole thing turns on. We pull the published flood, seismic, wildfire and soil data for that point from United States government sources and run every kit in the Index against it.

Exact street address, if you have one. Optional.

A ZIP code puts you at the centre of a postcode, which can sit miles from your parcel. A flood zone can change across one street, so an exact address is the difference between a picture of a neighbourhood and an answer about your land. We use it to look up public hazard data and nothing else, and it is never put in a link or a web address.

Do you have the land yet?

No wrong answer. It changes what we tell you to do next.

A hard floor removes kits. Leave it open if you have not decided.

All in, what are you working with?

All in means land work, plans, the kit, trades and finishes, not the kit price alone. This never removes a kit, because a published kit price is often a third of the finished cost and comparing the two would be arithmetic nonsense. It changes what we say about them.

How much of it are you doing yourself?

Some of these kits are bolt together. Others need a crane and a crew, and the makers do not always say so plainly.

Any build type you have your heart set on?

Picking one narrows hard. Most people should leave this open on the first run.

Should we hide the ones you cannot actually order?

Much of this industry is a render, a waitlist and an email form. This switch removes a lot of it.
