What is an ADU?
Accessory Dwelling Units or "ADUs" are dwellings—either attached or detached from the main house—that legally exist on the same lot with another house and equipped with a full kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom. ADUs can create secondary rental income, while increasing the occupancy of a given plot of land, thus creating more walkable cities, while still providing autonomy and privacy for both homes.

Why ADUs?
ADUs are becoming more popular due to updated housing regulations and their valuable versatility for homeowners. They offer private living space such as guest suites, or living options for elderly parents or young adults. As rental units, they generate income while increasing the walkability of our communities in a responsible and economical way.
