Add a Guest House, Efficiency Apartment, In-Law Suite, & More

Accessory dwelling units or  ADUs are a good idea if you need space for multi-family situations when you want someone close to your home, but with autonomy and privacy. Whether it's to care for elderly parents or for an adult child to find their footing, adding attached or detached self-contained living quarters is the perfect solution. 

If you are unfamiliar with ADUs, they are a second small dwelling built on the same ground or attached to the main house. They usually have a bedroom and/or living area, kitchen , and bathroom. It can be an apartment over the garage, a basement apartment, or a tiny house in the backyard. There are many different names for ADUs including efficiency apartment, in-law suite, guest house, granny flat, mother-in-law apartment, or simply accessory dwelling unit. 

Accessory dwelling units can also be turned into rental properties for extra income or just a space for other reasons. Why spend money on a new property when you can just upgrade the property you currently have with an accessory dwelling unit?

Let us build you an in-law suite, a guest house, a granny flat, or an efficiency apartment so you can save money. Accessory dwelling units are a great solution and easier to implement than purchasing nearby properties for extra space. 

It's up to you how you'd like your accessory dwelling units built whether attached, detached, or repurposed from an existing structure. These are the three main types of accessory dwelling units. A detached ADU is usually built in the backyard, and an attached ADU is an addition connected to the main house. A repurposed ADU on the other hand converts an existing room or space into an independent living space. 

Efficiency apartments are a good option for extra income, and accessory dwelling units can help you achieve this. They can also be turned into an in-law suite, guest house, granny flat, or mother-in-law apartment suited for any multi-family situation.
