Question 1

Why should I buy during presale if I can't see a physical unit?

Accepted Answer

Buying during presale gives you access to the best pricing, limited-time incentives, and priority production slots. Even without a physical unit available yet, you’ll receive detailed 3D renders, layout previews, and full specifications so you can confidently visualize your unit before it’s built.

Question 2

What’s included in the base price?

Accepted Answer

The base price includes the full unit structure, standard interior finishes, electrical setup, and core features depending on the model. Optional upgrades, delivery, and site preparation may vary and are discussed during your consultation.

Question 3

Do I really not need a building permit?

Accepted Answer

In many cases, units under a certain size (e.g., under 108 sqft) do not require a building permit. However, regulations vary by city, so we always recommend confirming with your local municipality.

Question 4

What’s the 50/50 payment structure?

Accepted Answer

The 50/50 structure means you secure your unit with a 50% deposit, and the remaining 50% is paid upon completion before delivery. This ensures your spot in production while minimizing upfront risk.

Question 5

Can I customize my unit?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Depending on the model, you can choose from a range of upgrades, finishes, and add-ons. Customizations are discussed during your planning phase to match your needs and budget.

Question 6

How does the 3D backyard render work?

Accepted Answer

We create a realistic 3D visualization of your unit placed in your actual backyard using photos or measurements you provide. This helps you see exactly how it will look and fit before building.

Question 7

What if I’m in a strata (condo/townhome)?

Accepted Answer

If you’re in a strata, you may need approval from your homeowners association or board. We recommend reviewing your strata bylaws before moving forward.

Question 8

Can I visit your factory before buying?

Accepted Answer

Yes, factory visits may be available by appointment. This allows you to see the quality, materials, and process behind your unit.

Question 9

What’s the warranty?

Accepted Answer

All units include a comprehensive warranty covering structural elements and key components. Specific terms vary by model and will be clearly outlined before purchase.

Question 10

What if I want to sell my house later—does the unit stay or go?

Accepted Answer

You have flexibility. The unit can remain as part of the property to increase its value, or it can be relocated depending on your setup and local regulations.
