What is Included in Your Free Estimate Process?

We don’t believe in generic per-square-foot guesses. Because every property in Southern California has unique setbacks, utility placements, and grading, we provide a personalized evaluation:

1. Remote Property Zoning & Setback Check
Using advanced GIS mapping and local municipal data, our team runs a preliminary zoning check on your address. We review local Southern California ordinances to determine:

Your maximum allowable ADU build size (whether you want a 400-sq.-ft. JADU or a 1,200-sq.-ft. detached home).

Required property line setbacks (typically 4 feet for modern SoCal ADUs).

Initial fire safety and proximity compliance relative to your main house.

2. Tailored Budget & Construction Pricing
Based on your preferred ADU type—whether it is a seamless Attached Addition, a cost-effective Garage Conversion, a standalone Detached ADU, or an engineered Second-Story Build—we provide an itemized preliminary cost breakdown. You’ll see estimated allocations for design, city permits, utility connections, and premium turnkey construction.

3. Comprehensive ROI & Financial Overview
We help you look at the math. Along with your construction estimate, we can provide neighborhood-specific data mapping out your projected property equity jump, local average monthly rental yields, and smart ADU Financing Options to fund the project smoothly.
