The DWELLTRY process is intentionally simple, seven steps from the first call to keys in your hand. Each step has a clear deliverable, a real timeline, and a single point of contact. Scroll down, the steps slide across as you go.
Start The Walk ↓A 30-minute conversation. No paperwork, no commitment, just us listening to what you're trying to do, and giving you the honest first answer most homeowners never get.
Always optional, never forced. The feasibility study is a written report that confirms what you can build, how much it'll cost, and where the constraints actually live. Most clients say yes, some skip straight to design.
If financing is part of the picture, we route you to the right lender. We've worked with HELOC providers, construction-to-perm lenders, and ADU-specialized banks, so you compare options instead of cold-calling.
One agreement, no surprises. We walk you through the scope, the timeline, the milestones, and the fee, in plain English. You ask questions, we answer them, you sign when you're ready.
Schematic through construction documents. We start with a goal-setting meeting and a design proposal, then refine the drawings across review rounds until they're ready to file. Nothing leaves the studio that isn't permit-ready.
We drive the city. You go live your life. We submit the application, track its status, respond to plan-check corrections, and chase signatures, with regular updates on a cadence you can plan around.
Permit in hand, ready to break ground. You receive the full issued package, stamped drawings, conditions of approval, fee receipts, and we hand off cleanly to your builder. (In-house build is coming soon, for now we partner with trusted GCs.)
Before any of this kicks off, you and Emmanuel meet for 30 minutes. We listen, we look at your lot, we tell you the truth. Then you decide what to do.
