Residential House Plans
House Plans Built by Builders, Not Illustrators
BUSATX house plans are designed for people who actually want to build. Every plan is developed from real-world construction experience—focused on structural logic, efficient layouts, and systems that make sense in the field. These are not decorative drawings or speculative concepts. They are practical, buildable plans created to help owner-builders, DIYers, and contractors move from idea to execution with fewer surprises.
Our plans are intentionally non–site-specific, giving you flexibility while preserving build integrity. Local engineering and permitting are still required, but you start with a solid foundation—clear layouts, disciplined design, and documentation that professionals respect.
Tier 1: Concept Plans

What to Know Before You Buy
BUSATX house plans are sold as a single-use license and are not site-specific. Local codes, climate conditions, soil, and jurisdictional requirements vary, and buyers are responsible for securing local engineering and permits. These plans are designed to accelerate your project—not replace professional review.
Why BUSATX Plans Are Different
Most online plans are drawn to look good. Ours are drawn to get built. We think about structure, sequencing, systems, and how trades actually work on site. That perspective shows up in the plans—and saves time, money, and frustration during construction.
