What starting a Soleta project means
Starting a Soleta project does not mean asking for a kit price immediately. A useful start means collecting enough information to choose the right model, documentation level, local review path, EasyKit scope, delivery assumptions, and support level.
Shortlist the model
Model choice affects plans, EasyKit, delivery, support, local review, and budget direction.
Check the local path
Permits, engineering, foundation, MEP, utilities, inspections, and site access remain local.
Choose the next product carefully
Planning Information, Complete Project, EasyKit, guides, or support should match the project stage.
The correct project order
Step 1
Clarify the use case
Decide what the building must do before choosing by image alone.
Step 2
Choose or shortlist a model
Use Browse Models and Model Series to narrow the direction.
Step 3
Choose the plan package
Use Planning Information for early review or Complete Project for stronger preparation.
Step 4
Review local requirements
Check permits, engineering, foundation, MEP, utilities, access, and local professionals.
Step 5
Decide Plans Only or EasyKit
Some clients should stay plans-only. Others can move toward EasyKit later.
Step 6
Prepare delivery and assembly
Review access, unloading, storage, foundation timing, and local team readiness.
Step 7
Request guidance when unclear
Contact Soleta when the next step is not obvious.
First questions checklist
You do not need every answer on day one, but these questions make your first inquiry much stronger.
- What will the building be used for?
- Which country and approximate region is the project in?
- Do you already have a plot?
- Is the site flat, sloped, remote, urban, rural, mountain, lake, forest, or unknown?
- Which Soleta model do you prefer or want to compare?
- Are local rules known, unknown, or under review?
- Do you need plans only, EasyKit, or are you unsure?
- Is there a local builder, engineer, architect, or consultant involved?
- What is your budget direction?
- What is your rough timeline?
- Is delivery access likely to be easy or difficult?
- Do you expect to need assembly support?

Common mistakes when starting a project
1
Asking for kit price first
A meaningful EasyKit quote needs model, scope, destination, site, and local context.
2
Choosing by image only
The model must fit use, site, budget, local rules, and local team.
3
Skipping local requirements
Local permits, engineering, foundation, MEP, and access can control feasibility.
4
Buying the wrong plan package
Early review and serious project preparation need different documentation levels.
5
Confusing EasyKit with turnkey
EasyKit is not a complete locally built house.
6
Waiting too long to involve local professionals
Local review should begin before execution decisions become expensive.
Start Your Project FAQ
What is the first step?
Clarify use case, location, site status, and model direction before buying or requesting EasyKit.
Should I choose a model before buying plans?
Yes. Plan packages should usually be linked to a selected or strongly shortlisted Soleta model.
Should I ask for EasyKit pricing first?
Not usually. EasyKit pricing needs model, scope, destination, site access, and local responsibility context.
Can Soleta tell me if my project is legal locally?
Soleta can help prepare the right questions, but local feasibility must be confirmed by local professionals and authorities.
What if I do not have land yet?
You can explore models and resources, but final local review depends on the actual site.
What if I am unsure between Plans Only and EasyKit?
Use the Plans or EasyKit guide, then request guidance if the path remains unclear.

Ready to start with the right first step?
Do not rush into the largest package. Start with the use case, model direction, and local path, then choose the right plan package or request guidance.
