Frequently Asked Questions — ADU Contractor in Agoura Hills
How long does it take to build an ADU in Los Angeles?
From signed contract to final inspection, most ADU projects in LA take 9–14 months. Permit timelines vary by city jurisdiction — Los Angeles City, LADBS, and county areas all differ. We navigate this for you.
How much does a custom ADU cost?
A high-quality detached ADU in Los Angeles typically ranges from $300K–$700K depending on size, finishes, and site conditions. We provide detailed cost estimates in pre-construction before any commitment.
Can I rent out my ADU?
Yes. ADUs in California can be rented both short-term (with local permit) and long-term. A well-built ADU in LA typically generates $2,000–$6,000/month in rental income depending on size and location.
What is a JADU?
A Junior ADU (JADU) is a unit up to 500 sq ft carved out of existing living space in your primary home. It requires a separate entrance but can share a bathroom with the main unit. JADUs are typically the fastest and lowest-cost ADU option.
Do you handle all permits for the ADU?
Yes. We manage all city and county permit applications for your ADU, including building, electrical, mechanical, and plumbing permits. We respond to plan-check corrections and schedule all inspections.
Will an ADU increase my property taxes?
Adding an ADU typically triggers a supplemental tax assessment on the value of the ADU only — not a full reassessment of your existing home. The tax increase is usually modest relative to the rental income and property value gain.
