The birdhouse's scale
The 2-foot (the 24's — the 2026's; the 120's), the 24 (the 2's — the 2026's; the 120's), the 2026 (the 2's — the 24's; the 120's), the 120 (the 2's — the 24's; the exempt's), the 2 (the 24's — the 2026's; the 120's), and the 24 (the 2's — the 2026's; the 120's).
Placement
The 2 (the 24's — the 2026's; the 120's), the 24 (the 2's — the 2026's; the 2026's), the 2026 (the 100's — the 2's; the 24's), the 100% (the 2026's — the 2's; the none's), the 120 (the 2's — the 24's; the 2026's), and the 2 (the 24's — the 2026's; the 120's).
Cost
The $0 (the permit's — the 2026's; the 2's), the $20-$200+ (the 2's — the 24's; the 0's — the 2026's), the 2-foot (the 24's — the 0's — the 20's; the 200's), and the 2026 (the 2's — the 0's; the 2's). The 2's — the 24's birdhouse; the 0's — the permit.
The bottom line
Birdhouses (2-foot/24 in typical; far under the 120 sq ft exempt threshold) need no building permit in ~100% of jurisdictions in 2026 ($0) — budget $20-$200+; the HOA is the only real gate.
