What is an ADU?
An ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) is a small residential unit that’s built on the same property as your house. It’s just a fancy name for a guest house. ADU provides additional living space for one person or a couple of people. An ADU also has its own kitchen, living space, and a separate entrance. There are many different types of ADUs but we can sort them all into three primary categories: attached, detached and internal ADUs.
Also commonly known as a guest house, tiny house, or granny flat. Detached ADU is completely separated from your house.It’s extremely important to decide whether you want to build an attached or detached ADU for the planning process. As we said before, the ADU is an accessory unit that’s located in your yard. The main difference between an attached and detached ADU is whether or not they are connected to your home or completely separated. Detached ADUs can also be described as small houses that provide additional habitable space.
An attached ADU is connected to the wall of your home, often to the side or rear of the house and it’s pretty similar to the garage. Attached ADUs share at least one wall with your house. Even though they are connected to your home, they still need to have separate entrances and share no internal connections with the main part of your home. They also have separate utility hookups, which isn’t expensive to implement. They don’t need to share mechanical appliances with the main unit.

Why Did ADUs Become Really Popular Recently?
If you live in Los Angeles, then you surely know how hard it is to find an affordable place to live. There is a huge demand for housing and the small number of homes has caused the prices to skyrocket. Which in return made the homes in Los Angeles as one of the most expensive homes in the nation.
ADUs help solve this problem by giving homeowners the space they need for their family members and guests. ADUs don’t require a lot of space but they provide the full comfort of living in a home, which helps you improve and maximize the use of your land/property.
Biggest ADU Benefits
- If you decide to build an ADU, you can overcome the two most common building problems: affordability and environmental quality.
- You don’t have to buy more land or add a lot of new infrastructure, elevators or parking.
- ADUs are built with affordable wood-frame construction, which makes them much cheaper to build.
- ADUs can also be a great investment which is why so many people build them purely for rental income.
