What is an ADU?
Commonly known as Granny Flats, In-law Suites, Backyard Homes, an ADU is a self-contained detached dwelling. There are many benefits to having an ADU installed on your property.
With an ADU you can…
Increase Value
Our new ADU's typically install for less that $200 a square foot. Average home values are 3 to 5 times that. A $120,000 install can increase the value of your property, in some markets, by up to $500,000.
Earn Income
In the Bay Area, even small ADU's are renting from $1,500- $2,500 a month. Many clients finance 100% of the cost, using home equity, and net over $1,000 a month with no out-of-pocket investment.
