ADU & Home Additions
An ADU is the most valuable square footage you can add, and the most regulated. A vetted builder will tell you what your lot and your municipality actually allow before you fall in love with a floor plan — which is the step most people skip and regret.

ADU & Home Additions questions
Will my city even allow an ADU?
Rules vary enormously by municipality and have loosened in many states. The builder will give you a read on your specific address at the appointment — that feasibility check is the whole point of the visit.
How long does an ADU take?
Typically six to twelve months including permitting, which is usually the longest single stage. A garage conversion is often faster.
