Home Builder 5 is completely free to download and use.
Home Builder 5 is compatible with Blender 5.0 and newer, so any release from 5.0 onward should be able to load it. If you are running an older version of Blender, you would need to update before installing. The add-on is distributed through the Blender extensions platform, with platform-specific builds available. The current release is version 5.1.0, last updated on 2026-02-27, and installation follows Blender's usual extension workflow of dragging the package into a window or installing it from disk.
Home Builder 5 installs the same way as other Blender extensions. You can drag the downloaded package directly into a Blender window, or use the install-from-disk option in Blender's preferences. Builds are provided as platform-specific zip files, so download the one that matches your operating system and processor before installing. The download links and installation steps are both available on the Blender extensions page for the add-on, alongside the current version 5.1.0 release.
Home Builder 5 provides separate downloads for Windows in both x64 and Arm builds, macOS on Intel and Apple Silicon, and Linux. Pick the build that matches your operating system and processor. Each platform download is a standalone package, and file sizes vary slightly between them. All of these builds correspond to version 5.1.0 of the add-on, last updated on 2026-02-27, and each installs through Blender's standard extension process.
Home Builder 5 is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. It is listed here as free.
