- Title: Unlocking the Potential of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in California | Housing Revolution!
Description:
Join us on a journey into the world of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and discover why they're taking California by storm! ADUs add value to your property, generate rental income, and offer housing solutions for extended family members. California has recognized their significance and has recently simplified ADU building requirements.
🏡 In 2020, ADU permits issued skyrocketed to nearly 12,400, a 30% annual increase from 2019. Homeowners are seizing the opportunity! But what exactly qualifies as an ADU in California? They are independent housing units with complete living facilities - detached, attached, converted existing space, or Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADU).
📜 Explore key law changes making ADU construction more affordable:
1️⃣ No longer restricted to one ADU per single-family lot - add two more units!
2️⃣ Owner occupancy is no longer required, opening doors for landlords and investors.
3️⃣ Eased size, lot, and setback requirements - build an 800 sq ft ADU with 16 ft height, approved in just 60 days.
4️⃣ Some ADUs are exempt from parking requirements, promoting accessibility.
5️⃣ Overruled Homeowner Association restrictions ensure fair opportunities for all.
💰 Financial aid options, including state grants like the $40,000 grant from CalHFA, make ADU development more feasible for qualifying homeowners. Exciting legislation on the horizon, such as SB 897 and AB 2221, promises increased height limits, retroactive permitting, and streamlined approval processes.

I wonder if the senior communities run by HOA can restrict ADU's.
Likely no, HOA and senior communities are fairly strict about building.
Tax will go up 5000 a year if your ADU gets appraised for $400k
I’m in the process now building an ADU.
Nice, where are you located?

@@ericrubalcava9428 that’s awesome. Be sure you know all the special California setback rules as it pertains to SB9 so you can maximize its size for the lot!
@@smellison09 Yes,, thanks for the info! It’s currently under construction and just about half way through the build. 879 sqft, 2 bed and 2 bath. So far so good! 😊
@@ericrubalcava9428 If you don't mind how much per square foot?
Can you build an ADU before you build a main house? If we are allowed to build an ADU prior to building the main house, do we need plans for the main house prior to building an ADU. and how much time do we have to live in the ADU?
in our area, it is possible, but you will definitely want to check your specific cities restrictions. Every city has different laws around ADUs.
@@smellison09 thank you for the feedback
