What Is An ADU? 


A rental Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) transforms your property into a versatile investment that generates steady rental income while increasing your home’s overall market value. This reliable revenue stream can help offset mortgage payments or provide additional monthly income, making it an attractive option for financially savvy homeowners.

Beyond the immediate financial benefits, an ADU offers remarkable flexibility in how you utilize your property. Whether you choose to rent it out, create a private home office, establish a creative studio space, or provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests, an ADU adapts to your changing needs while maintaining privacy and convenience. This combination of reliable income potential, increased property value, and adaptable living space makes an ADU a strategic investment that enhances both the practical utility and long-term value of your property.
