Does Boxhouse handle acquiring potable water and sanitary sewer on behalf of the owner?

Yes. Depending on the location and length of time the boxouse will be there, we can do off-grid (tanks monitored and filled/pumped as need, RV-style) or grid-connected (linked to existing house's plumbing)

Does Boxhouse absorb the costs of permitting and construction for homeowners? What sort of duration is necessary?

We're going to do this selectively: getting the first ADU design fully licensed in a given MSA is going to be important for us. We'll want to see a year+ commitment to justify the cost.
