Everywhere provides designs, materials and software to create a system for building our homes. We’ve simplified our process into three parts, below.
PART ONE
Pre-Build
1. Feasibility Analysis
We start with an assessment of whether or not you can build your home on your parcel and all the details that go with it.
2. Design
We work with you to finalize any floor plan customizations or materials considerations you’d like for your new home.
3. Engineering
Once we have the design squared away, we move forward with the structural engineering which includes framing, roofing and foundation.

PART TWO
Permit
1. Site Visit
In order to get a firsthand look at the project, the prospective Builder will visit your parcel in-person to make notes & recommendations.
2. Labor Bid
Once the Builder has visited the site and has given input on feasibility and foundation type, we can get a proper bid back.
3. Permitting
The Builder will work with you to submit all the documents required to receive your build permit.
PART THREE
Build
1. Materials delivery
The Everywhere team will schedule multiple deliveries for your build, including framing, roofing, exterior and interior materials and appliances. To view the full list click here.
2. Construction process
The Builder will work with our team to coordinate the delivery of the materials and any other support they need throughout the build timeline.
3. The keys are yours
Once your new home is completed, you’ll receive a certificate of occupancy, and then it’s time to move in!
Frequently Asked Questions
What is your process like?
Everywhere is not a home builder. We provide plans, drawings, pre-construction services and materials for our designs and they can be built on-site and some inside of a factory. We then have a network of builders we’ve partnered with that can build the homes. If we don’t have a builder available in your area, we can help you find one. We help you get prepped to build one of our homes and have created a platform online to assist in this process. For factory built-homes, we have a crew we’ve partnered with in Utah to complete the build.
How much will this cost me?
We bundle design and engineering services into a materials package for you. Because our homes are pre-designed, you’re receiving a savings on the overall build by not having to hire an Architect and create plans and a materials package from scratch. Getting started requires a $700 deposit, which includes basic schematic plans (for site-built homes) and a feasibility analysis.
After your plans are approved, the total cost of your completed home will vary completely based several factors including location, the nuances related to your particular lot, your Builder etc. We will present materials options to you along with a pricing proposal.
How long will it take?
For foundation homes:
Once you have a build permit in-hand, you should plan on around 6-8 months for the construction to be completed for your new home.
For factory-built homes:
Factory-built homes take between 2-4 months to build and deliver to your site.
Does Everywhere provide a warranty?
Yes, we offer a standard 5 year warranty on structural defects, and a 2 year warranty on fixed materials. Some individual material warranties may vary based on location and supply availability.
How do I know if I can actually build my home on my lot?
We offer a feasibility service that will help determine if you can build your home on your lot. Building a new home can be complex. Ensuring you can actually build the home model you want might just be the most important piece of your new adventure.
Once you login to your account, you can get started with a Feasibility Analysis by clicking the red ‘Feasibility’ button on the ‘My Home’ page.
Can I customize the floor plan?
Absolutely. We have customized dozens of homes. We can add basements, increase or decrease square footage, add bath tubs, windows, etc.
Can I change the materials?
Yes you can change the materials. All of our pricing is set to match the same materials we use in the visual renderings on our site. If you’d like to swap those out with your own material aesthetic to achieve a specific look, we’re happy to do that for you. We would need to customize the pricing however, to adjust for the cost differences associated with the materials you’d like to change.
Do I need a survey?
Yes, typically you’re going to need a survey to understand where your lot boundaries are and you have up-to-date, accurate information of your lot and the utilities located nearby. In many cases, surveys will also include topography information that is helpful when determining the foundation type and related engineering process for construction.
In some municipalities, surveys are not required in order to obtain a build permit. But we still highly recommend it.
Can you help with site planning?
Yes, if you or your General Contractor purchase materials through us, we include the site planning services into the cost of the materials or turnkey package.
Can you help with structural engineering?
Yes, if you or your General Contractor purchase materials through us, we include the structural engineering services into the cost of the materials or turnkey package.
How do I find a Builder?
If you plan to order materials directly though us, we can help you find a Builder as part of the process.
Can I use my own General Contractor?
Yes, you can use your own General Contractor. We suggest that you discuss with your General Contractor that we can sell them the materials directly so they don’t have to outsource the engineering, materials take-offs, sourcing and supply chain management.
Do you help with permitting?
Yes! As part of the materials purchase, we will include permitting along with site planning and engineering.
Do I have to order materials through Everywhere?
We highly recommend purchasing materials through us. If you choose not to do so, you must acquire a single-use or multi-use build license, in order to move forward with your build in working with your own Builder to purchase all of your materials locally.
How long will construction take?
For foundation homes:
Once you have a build permit in-hand, you should plan on around 6-8 months for the construction to be completed for your new home.
For tiny homes:
Tiny homes take between 2-3 months to build and deliver to your site.
How do I legally move into my new home once it’s complete?
Most municipalities require what is called a Certificate of Occupancy.
A Certificate of Occupancy serves as proof that a property has complied with all standards and codes and is now fit for occupancy.
