The Knowledge of ADUs
The accessory dwelling units, or ADUs, are self-contained residential units on a lot of a pre-existing property. In other words, they are affordable types of homes to construct in the state because they do not require paying for land, major new infrastructure, structured parking, or elevators. They can also provide a source of income for homeowners. From time-to-time the accessory dwelling units are called tiny houses; however, not all of those tiny houses are ADUs. This is why they must have foundations and utility connectors, and while they can be freestanding, and they can also be attached to the main house or fully integrated into the home.
