Houseplans by Jannis Vann and Associates

The cost of a house plan can vary greatly depending on the style of home you build. Remember, a two-story house plan on a basement with the garage in that basement space is going to be more economical to build than a ranch style house plan on a basement with an attached garage. The two story has less roof and foundation than the ranch plan even though their square footages may be identical. The cost per square foot to build could vary dramatically. Please check with residential building contractors in your area to get an idea of that dollar amount before making any assumptions.

Ownership of these home designs is solely the property of Jannis Vann and Associates, Inc. When you purchase a set of home blueprints or a reproducible you are purchasing a license to build. This license gives you the right to construct one house from these working drawings. To build the house more than once, modify or copy without express written permission violates this copyright. Extended license agreements for Home builders may be purchased. Please contact our office for details. Strict penalties exist for copyright violations. Please read the additional review information provided if you are unfamiliar with these copyright laws.

When a client wishes to make changes, or knows that a houseplan will have to be modified or reviewed to meet local building codes he may purchase a reproducible set of drawings. This allows for additions or changes to be made before the bluelines are printed. This is a great convenience to people who live in areas where building codes are more strict than the codes under which the home plan were designed. These homeplans have been designed to meet International Residential Code (IRC) AND CABO, but only to the standards for the area in which the designer's business is located. Some areas where earthquake or hurricane codes are enforced would have more stringent building codes than these homeplans were drawn to meet. A Reproducible set would allow a local engineer to add information covering these conditions and satisfy the local building codes department requirements. The purchase of reproducible sets does not give an extended license. Extended license agreements for Home builders may be purchased. Please contact our office for details.

All of our home plans drawn since 1994 have been drawn on the computer allowing for easy modification and the ability to create a readable reverse house plans. Hand drawn house floor plans that have not been converted to the computer are only available in mirror image reverse. See Modifications for more information.
