How we help you build your ADU

Owner's representation and project coordination for Massachusetts homeowners. We work for you, not the contractor, not the architect, not the lender

Service 1: Feasibility Study — $995

Before you spend a dollar on design or construction, know what's possible.

  • Zoning, setback, and dimensional analysis specific to your lot

  • Title 5 septic evaluation (for homes on septic systems)

  • Preliminary budget range based on similar Massachusetts projects

  • Financing options breakdown (HELOC, renovation loan, specialty ADU lenders)

  • Realistic timeline with milestones

  • Plain-language written report — yours to keep

Turnaround: 7-10 business days.

Service 2: Permit Coordination

We handle the paperwork and the follow-up.

  • Municipal application preparation

  • Coordination with town building, health, and planning departments

  • Inspection scheduling and progress tracking

  • Variance strategy, if needed

Included in the Full Concierge Package, or billed hourly.

Service 3: Architect and Contractor Vetting

We don't design or build — and that's a feature, not a bug. Our independence keeps our advice honest.

  • Introductions to vetted ADU-experienced architects and designers

  • Contractor recommendations with three-bid comparison

  • Reference checks and license verification

  • Contract review before you sign anything

Service 4: Owners Representation Through Construction

Your advocate from groundbreaking to move-in.

  • Weekly site check-ins and written progress reports

  • Change order review and approval guidance

  • Issue escalation and problem-solving

  • Final walkthrough and punch list

  • Post-construction support — certificate of occupancy, rental setup, utility sign-offs
