03
Budget with honest ranges
Get planning ranges for structure, systems, solar, furniture, delivery, and permits — clearly labeled as estimates, not quotes.
04
Match with a builder

A floor plan you can actually play with
Every piece is true to scale. Drag in a queen bed and watch it eat 33 square feet — then try a loft and win it back. The planner nudges you with practical space-planning tips as you go.
- True-to-scale 2D floor plan with drag-and-drop furniture
- Instant 3D-style preview of your layout
- Smart suggestions for walkways, kitchens, and storage
- Save versions to My Projects and track your checklist
Cost planning
Know the range before you fall in love
Structure, windows, doors, kitchen, bath, electrical, plumbing, heating, solar, furniture, delivery, permits, and contingency — twelve categories, each with a low–high planning range.
These are planning ranges for early budgeting — not builder quotes. Real pricing depends on your region, materials, and builder.
