Smart Home Budget Planner for Austin Homes
Estimate a realistic installed budget for lighting control, shades, audio, and networking, tuned to your Austin neighborhood and home size.
Build your budget one section at a time
Answer a short set of questions about your home and the systems you want. The planner builds a preliminary installed-cost range section by section, then unlocks the total at the end.
Start with your home
Choose your Austin area, ZIP code, and size. We tune the baseline to your micro-market and square footage.
Pick your systems
Lighting control, shades, audio and video, networking, and cinema or media room, each priced by section.
See your range
Your total unlocks at the bottom of the page. Cinema and media room pricing uses published system tiers, and other categories use Home Technology Association guidance refined by Smarter Homes.
Then talk to us
Bring the range to a showroom visit and we will turn it into a scoped design.

Budget planner FAQ
What is the Smarter Homes Project Planner?
A budget tool that builds a preliminary installed-cost range for a new or renovated Austin-area home, section by section.
How accurate is the budget?
It is a planning range, not a quote. A final price depends on your plans, products, and site, which we confirm during design.
Which systems does it cover?
Lighting control, shades, audio and video, networking, and cinema or media room.
Is it for builders and architects too?
Yes. It gives a project-wide view early, before drawings are final.
What happens after I finish?
Book a showroom visit and we will review the range with you. Book a visit.
