Why build an ADU?

ADU stands for Accessory Dwelling Unit. Also known as tiny home, granny flat, in-law unit, or garage apartment.

Make the most of your Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) by renting it out. This offers you a consistent stream of income from tenants. By doing so, you not only earn extra money but also step into the role of a landlord, making your property work harder for you. It's a smart way to capitalize on space you already own.
