Ask Anything
What is the average timeline for permitting and building a detached ADU in California?
The timeline typically ranges from 4 to 8 months. Permitting can take anywhere from 1 to 3 months depending on the city, while construction generally takes another 3 to 5 months. At ADUcsale, we manage the entire process for you — from permits to final inspection — to help avoid unnecessary delays.
Do you offer pre-approved ADU plans that meet local zoning and building codes?
Yes, we provide a variety of pre-approved, permit-ready ADU plans that comply with both California building codes and specific local zoning rules. These plans help speed up city approval times and reduce the chances of plan rejections. If needed, we also offer fully customized design services.
Can I finance my ADU project through ADUcsale or do you work with partner lenders?
Yes, we partner with several financing providers who offer ADU-specific loan options such as home equity lines of credit, cash-out refinancing, and renovation loans. We can guide you through the available financing paths and connect you with the right lender for your situation.
Will adding an ADU increase my property taxes or affect my home insurance?
In most cases, adding an ADU will slightly increase your property’s assessed value, which can result in a minor property tax adjustment. However, under California’s Prop 13, your main residence will retain its original assessment. As for insurance, we recommend updating your homeowner’s policy after the ADU is completed to ensure it’s fully covered.
What’s included in your turnkey ADU service — do you handle permits, utilities, and inspections?
Yes, our turnkey service includes everything from site evaluation and architectural planning to permitting, utility hookups, full construction, and final inspections. We manage the entire project on your behalf, so you don’t have to coordinate with multiple contractors or city departments.
