Acoustic.
Engineered sound assemblies between living quarters. The kind of separation where you know your renter is home only because the porch light is on.
Most builders leave basements unfinished to win the sticker price war. We finish ours and engineer it as a separated rental. The rent offsets your mortgage. Your effective monthly payment lands below $2,500.
Sticker price comparison is the wrong frame. The right frame is effective monthly payment, after rental income. On that math, R5 wins.
Same flex basement, three completely different lives it serves. Pick the path that sounds like yours.
Mid 30s buyer. Working family. Single income or two. The basement renter covers $1,400 to $1,900 a month so the home actually pencils on your paycheck.
55 plus couple. Adult kids returning home. Parents who'd rather not be in assisted living. A complete private suite with its own door, kitchen, and walls that hold sound.
$1M plus. Spanish Fork. A home built around how your family actually lives, including the private guest suite for grown kids, in laws, or the office that needs to be a world apart.
Same separated basement engineering. Same nine floorplans. Different conversation, different finish, different price. The home flexes with your life as the years move.
The reason most "basement rentals" fail is sloppy separation. We engineer for three layers of it. The result feels like two homes that happen to share a roof.
Engineered sound assemblies between living quarters. The kind of separation where you know your renter is home only because the porch light is on.
Separate entrance with its own walkway. Separate kitchen, laundry, mechanicals. No interior door connecting the two units when configured as rental. Convert it back to a single home when life calls for that.
Independent HVAC. Separate electrical sub panel. Air, heat, and bills don't mix. Neither does the experience.
The math closes the deal. The fear of being a landlord opens it back up. Income Care is our managed rental program. We screen tenants, sign leases, collect rent, run repairs, and the income lands in your bank account. No 2 AM phone calls. No vacancy panic. Verifiable, not aspirational.
Photos of completed R5 builds in Eagle Mountain and Spanish Fork. No staging tricks, no stock images. The home you tour is the home you buy.






Three to five thousand square feet. Two to ten rooms. Every plan is engineered around the same separated FLEX-ADU. Pick the one that fits your lot and your life.
"The basement covers most of our payment. We get a real home. Our kid's room is a kid's room, not a closet. It just works."
