Plan usage rights

License Agreement

What you can and cannot do with a plan you buy from Modern House Blueprint.

Last updated: October 3, 2026

In short

  • One purchase covers one build on one site.
  • Share the plans with your builder, engineer and permit office.
  • Modify the plans for your own project.
  • Do not resell, share online or reuse the design for other builds.

01What your purchase includes

When you buy a plan, you receive a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use that plan to build one structure on one site.

The copyright and ownership of the design stay with Modern House Blueprint. You are buying the right to use the plan, not the design itself.

02What you can and cannot do

You may

  • Print as many copies as your project needs
  • Share the files with your contractor, architect, engineer, lender and building department
  • Modify the plan, yourself or through a professional, for this one build
  • Edit the CAD files, where included, for project-related changes

You may not

  • Build more than one structure from a single purchase
  • Resell, share, give away or upload the files anywhere
  • Use the design or a modified version in a plan catalog or marketplace
  • Remove our name or copyright notices
  • Claim the design as your own work

03Building the same plan again

Each additional build needs its own license. Buy the plan again for each build, or email [email protected] if you are a builder planning several homes.

04Modified plans

Changing a plan does not create a new design. Modified versions are still covered by this license and by our copyright.

05Codes, permits and professional review

Our plans are not stamped. Building codes, zoning and site conditions vary by location. You are responsible for having the plans reviewed, engineered or stamped where your local authority requires it.

06Misuse of the plans

Using or sharing the plans outside this license ends your right to use them and may lead to legal action to protect our copyright.
