What are Accessory Dwelling Units?

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are secondary housing units located on the same lot as a primary residence. They can take various forms, including basement apartments, garage conversions, or standalone structures. ADUs provide homeowners with additional living space and can serve multiple purposes, such as housing family members, generating rental income, or providing a private space for guests.

Benefits of ADUs

ADUs offer numerous benefits, including increased property value, flexibility in living arrangements, and a solution to housing shortages in urban areas. They are often more affordable than traditional housing options and can be designed to blend seamlessly with the existing home.
