The Future of ADUs in California: Trends to Watch
Published on

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) have become a cornerstone of California's strategy to address the housing crisis. As regulations continue to evolve and homeowners recognize the potential benefits, the ADU landscape is rapidly changing.
Recent Legislative Changes
California has passed several laws in recent years that have made it easier than ever to build ADUs. These include:
- Streamlined approval processes
- Reduced or eliminated parking requirements
- Allowance for multiple ADUs on a single property
- Limitations on HOA restrictions
These changes have led to a surge in ADU construction across the state, with more homeowners recognizing the potential for rental income, multigenerational living, or increasing property value.
