FutureLot
ChatGPT pluginWhat can you build on your lot
Find out what you’re allowed to build on a US property. Give FutureLot an address to explore a backyard cottage or in-law apartment (ADU), a home addition, a pool, a new home, or multifamily housing.
FutureLot checks the parcel, zoning district, and lot details, then explains the rules for your project using local zoning and applicable state laws. Understand size limits, parking requirements, rental restrictions, and more—in plain language. You can also ask about a city’s ADU rules before choosing a property.
Each answer distinguishes what zoning allows from what needs a site-specific review. Follow the link to FutureLot to see setbacks and try a project on your lot.
All you need is an address. No account or device location required.
