Deep dives

Increasing Density through ADUs

The trend of increasing density in housing through the construction of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) is gaining momentum across various states. Significant regulatory changes in places like Washington and California have led to more homeowners considering options such as backyard cottages or converted garages. While this surge in ADU interest may be seen as a path to maximize rental income, it is essential to evaluate whether such investments are viable in individual markets. Incorporating additional housing units must also consider potential issues such as parking congestion and community pushback, particularly in areas already facing strain on infrastructure.
