    What's billed separately?

    Installation. It varies by location, so we quote it for your lot. The estimate is around $30,000. Permits, site prep and utility tie-ins also depend on your lot: budget for these on top of the home and installation until your site-plan quote says otherwise.

    How long does it take to get a Sidesuite?

    Where do you build?

    Miami-Dade and Broward counties today: Check My Lot covers every address in both. Orlando is next, then Jacksonville and Tampa.

    How do I finance a Sidesuite?

    Most homeowners use a HELOC, construction-to-perm loan, or cash-out refinance. ADU-specific lenders (RenoFi, HFS Financial) underwrite against future appraised value — works if you don't have current equity. FHA 203(k) is another option. Sidesuite's own lender partners are opening soon. Compare all five paths.

    Can I check whether my lot qualifies?

    Yes, for every address in Miami-Dade and Broward counties today. Check My Lot is free and instant: we check zoning, the lot and the city's rules, and rate both Sidesuite models Highly likely, Likely or Unlikely.
