Advertising & Compensation Disclosure

Why This Disclosure Exists

We want homeowners to understand how UtahADUBuilders.com makes money before they request quotes, use partner links, or ask for builder matching.

ADU decisions can involve large amounts of money. Homeowners deserve to know when a website may be compensated for introductions, referrals, leads, affiliate links, advertising, or partner relationships.

This disclosure applies across UtahADUBuilders.com, including ADU feasibility pages, cost guides, city guides, builder-matching forms, comparison pages, emails, quote requests, and partner links.

How Utah ADU Builders May Be Compensated

UtahADUBuilders.com may receive compensation in several ways.

Builder and contractor introductions

We may be paid when a homeowner requests an introduction, submits a quote request, contacts a matched builder, books a consultation, or moves forward with a participating builder or contractor.

Lead-generation partnerships

We may be paid when we send a qualified homeowner inquiry to a participating builder, designer, lender, prefab company, software provider, or other service partner.

Affiliate links

Some links may be affiliate links. If you click a link and take an action, we may earn a commission or referral fee.

Sponsored placements

Some placements, listings, calls to action, or partner mentions may be sponsored. When a placement is sponsored, we aim to label it clearly.

Advertising

We may display ads or sponsored messages on some pages.

Financing or lender partners

If the site includes ADU financing resources, HELOC resources, loan partners, lending marketplaces, or financing tools, we may be compensated when a homeowner clicks, applies, submits information, or uses a partner service.

Prefab, modular, or product partners

If the site includes prefab ADU, modular ADU, plan, product, software, or service partners, we may be compensated when a homeowner clicks, requests pricing, submits a form, or buys through a partner.

What Compensation Does Not Mean

Compensation does not mean:

• A provider is guaranteed to be the best option
• A provider is guaranteed to be licensed, insured, available, or qualified
• Your city will approve your ADU
• Your project will stay within the planning cost range
• Your builder will meet your timeline
• Your financing will be approved
• Your rental income will cover the project
• Your property qualifies for an ADU
• You should hire the first provider you contact
• You should skip your own due diligence

A paid relationship is not a substitute for city verification, professional advice, written bids, license checks, insurance verification, references, contract review, and permit review.

Do Partners Pay for Rankings?

We do not sell fake editorial rankings.

A partner may pay for advertising, sponsorship, lead referrals, affiliate referrals, or placement opportunities, but we should not present a paid placement as an independent editorial ranking.

If a page ranks, compares, or recommends providers, the page should explain the basis for that recommendation or comparison. Compensation may affect which providers are available through the site, which providers are shown in a call to action, or which providers can receive introductions, but compensation should not be hidden from homeowners.

If a placement is sponsored or compensation may affect the presentation, we aim to disclose that clearly.

How Builder Matching May Affect Your Information

When you submit an ADU feasibility form, quote request, builder-matching request, or partner inquiry, the information you provide may be used to help identify a possible project path and may be shared with participating independent providers.

That information may include:

• Name, email, and phone number
• Property city, ZIP code, or address
• ADU type and budget range
• Timeline and project notes
• Financing interest and builder-matching preferences

Independent providers may contact you directly if you request an introduction or quote.

Do not submit information through the site if you do not want it used for feasibility review, follow-up, builder matching, partner matching, or related communications.

How We Try to Match Homeowners With Providers

When we make introductions, we may consider:

• Property location, ADU type, project stage, budget range, and timeline
• Service area and provider availability
• Provider responsiveness and project-type fit
• Available license or insurance information
• Provider experience when available
• Compensation relationship and homeowner request details

This process is not perfect and is not a guarantee. You are responsible for deciding whether to contact, hire, or pay any provider.

Homeowner Due Diligence

Before hiring a builder, contractor, designer, engineer, lender, prefab company, or other provider, you should independently verify:

• Utah contractor license status when applicable
• Insurance and references
• Recent projects and written scope of work
• Permit responsibility and city approval path
• Engineering and design responsibility
• Payment schedule, change order terms, allowances and exclusions
• Timeline, warranty terms, and cancellation terms
• Financing terms if applicable

Do not rely only on a website listing, introduction, phone call, email, or online profile.

No Legal, Financial, or Construction Advice

UtahADUBuilders.com provides general educational information and matching support.

We do not provide legal advice, architectural advice, engineering advice, tax advice, lending advice, appraisal advice, real estate advice, insurance advice, or contractor advice.

Always verify your project with the appropriate professionals and public agencies before making a decision.

Free Feasibility Check

The initial ADU feasibility and cost check is free for homeowners.

The free check may help you understand:

• Whether your ADU idea needs more research
• Which ADU type may fit your property
• What cost range may be realistic
• Which city or permit issues to check
• Whether builder matching may make sense

The free check does not guarantee that your property qualifies, your city will approve the ADU, your cost will match the planning range, or a builder will be available.

Affiliate and Partner Link Disclosure

Some links on UtahADUBuilders.com may be affiliate, referral, partner, sponsored, or advertising links.

If you click one of these links and take an action, UtahADUBuilders.com may receive compensation.

You do not have to use our links or partners. You can contact builders, lenders, city offices, prefab companies, and other providers directly.

Sponsored Content Disclosure

If we publish sponsored content, paid listings, or partner-provided content, we aim to label it in a way that is visible and understandable to homeowners.

Sponsored content should not make false claims, hide compensation, fake reviews, guarantee outcomes, or present paid opinions as independent editorial conclusions.
