An ADU is a permanent dwelling that exists besides, near, or in conjunction with a larger, pre-existing home. Tiny homes, on the other hand, tend to have wheels like RVs. Those micro dwellings that aren't mobile typically sit on a small parcel of land that does not contain any other buildings.

Read More »Nontraditional housing options are becoming increasingly popular among the younger generations. Tiny homes, homes on wheels, and even RVing are now more appealing than the traditional cookie-cutter house in the suburbs. And yet, a surprising amount of people are entirely unaware of ADU housing, and it’s potential benefits and positive impacts. However, the people in-the-know are ditching their tiny houses in favor of ADUs. The thing that defines an ADU is that it is a fully-functional dwelling that exists within the same space or lot as another individually operating dwelling. Also, they are always smaller than the primary home. What does ADU stand for? Well, it stands for Accessory Dwelling Unit. This isn’t a glamorous, roll-off-the-tongue kind of name, though, so most people say ADU. The reason why these buildings are called Accessory Dwelling Units is that they’re not integral to the main dwelling’s functioning. Imagine that you’re about to head out for a night on the town. While you may not need that sparkly purse or sturdy leather wallet with you to leave the house, having those accessories with you certainly helps. An ADU works in much the same way. It’s a super practical, highly functional addition to any traditional residential lot. An ADU is a permanent dwelling that exists besides, near, or in conjunction with a larger, pre-existing home. Tiny homes, on the other hand, tend to have wheels like RVs. Those micro dwellings that aren’t mobile typically sit on a small parcel of land that does not contain any other buildings. As such, ADUs can exist nearly anywhere that standard homes already exist, but tiny homes require a special permit or plot of land all to themselves. Consequently, ADUs are far easier to build and approve than the majority of tiny homes.

Read More »There are several different types of ADUs. Let’s explore some of the most common and popular ones. These are, as the name suggests, not connected to the main dwelling and are standalone homes. They come in nearly endless varieties and are often the most customizable of the ADU types. These structures are the least expensive of the ADUs. They typically come “pre-approved” for construction and include a detailed list of plans and engineering designs and specifications. These are easiest on the pocket to get started on, because clients won’t need to pay separately for design and engineering plan costs. However, because these ADUs are essentially pre-designed homes, they don’t feature many customization options, and the floor plan and size are minimal. Switching gears, a custom design ADU offers everything that a Build Ready one cannot. You can customize every aspect of this dwelling, ensuring that your contractor perfects your vision. However, the downside to this flexibility is higher costs. Getting your design created, approved, and put into action is often a lengthy and expensive process. But if you’re determined to build a personalized ADU that won’t break the bank, there is a third option. There are extensive catalogs of designs for clients to browse through and choose from, and reduced costs throughout. You’ll have nearly all the personalization of a Custom Design ADU, but at greatly reduced cost. It’s also the perfect place for a man cave or a diva dugout!
