FAQ

We’ve heard it all. Here’s everything you need to know before working with us.

How long does it take to build an ADU?

The full timeline depends on several factors. The design phase might take a few weeks as we tailor the ADU to your property and needs. The permitting stage can vary, often requiring a few months depending on local reviews. Once permits are secured, construction typically takes a few more months, but we’ll keep you updated at every step.

Can I rent out my ADU?

Yes, you can typically rent out your ADU, and it often becomes a valuable source of extra income. That said, specific rental regulations vary depending on your neighborhood and zoning. We’ll guide you through understanding the local requirements, so you can rent it out confidently and legally. Our team will help ensure your ADU complies with local laws, so you know exactly what’s possible.

Can an ADU increase my homes value?

Yes, a thoughtfully designed ADU can enhance your property’s market value. Not only does it add additional living space, ideal for family use or flexible living arrangements, but it can also offer a potential stream of rental income. In many cases, properties with legal ADUs stand out on the market and appeal to buyers looking for versatility. Of course, local market conditions matter, and we’ll help ensure your ADU aligns with all regulations, so you get the most out of your investment

Do I need special permits for an ADU?

Yes, building an ADU does require permits and approvals, which vary based on local zoning, safety, and construction regulations. While this process can seem daunting, we’re here to make it seamless. Our team handles every step. From initial zoning reviews to final approvals. We’ll ensure your ADU meets all Department of Buildings requirements, so you can focus on your future space while we take care of the paperwork.

Will an ADU increase my property taxes?

Yes, adding an ADU can raise your property’s assessed value, and that may affect your property taxes. The exact increase depends on your municipality’s tax assessment practices. We’ll help you understand potential impacts by guiding you through local tax policies. Many homeowners find that the added value and potential rental income outweigh any tax changes, and we’ll ensure you have a clear picture before you begin.

How large can my ADU be?

ADUs generally range from about 400 to 800 square feet, though the exact size depends on your local regulations, lot dimensions, and zoning rules. Each municipality sets its own guidelines on maximum size, setbacks, and coverage. We’ll work with you to determine the optimal ADU size that fits both your property and the legal parameters, ensuring you have the space you need while remaining fully compliant.

Can I finance the construction?

Yes, financing options are available to qualified homeowners. We can introduce you to various financing solutions and guide you through the options that may suit your project. We’ll help you explore the best path forward while ensuring you stay fully informed throughout the process.

How do I find tenants for my ADU?

We recommend partnering with a reputable local real estate brokerage. They can help market your ADU effectively, screen potential tenants, and handle the rental process smoothly.
