Riverside ADU Builders

If we look at the number of ADUs that are sprinkled along the state of California, we can see that the number is deep into the thousands. This is because state and federal laws are becoming much more lax than they used to be, allowing homeowners and investors the opportunity to build their ADUs with ease.

Have you ever seen one of these units and wondered what they could do for your property?

There are many reasons why people like to build ADUs on their property. For starters, ADUs are a wonderful investment if you want to earn a little bit of extra income every month.

Secondly, old relatives find ADUs to be wonderful places to remain close to a family while retaining their overall independence. Teenagers or adult children might find ADUs to be wonderful transitional units before they move out into the real world and reach total independence.

If you are interested in building an ADU on your property, but you’re still unsure if you want to make the commitment, let us tell you why it might be your best idea yet!

What Is an ADU?

Before we dive into the many benefits of ADUs, we want to make sure that you know exactly what they are. ADU stands for Accessory Dwelling Unit. You may have heard of ADUs through different names, including granny flat, tiny home, mother-in-law suite, etc. An ADU can either be attached or detached from your main home that is on your property.

Though our ADUs are detached from the home, many people like to build their ADUs in or on converted garages or basements.

Why Should I Build an ADU in Riverside County?

• House Your Family Members – ADUs are often referred to as mother-in-law suites. Whether you believe that name to be affectionate or not, the case was that parents or grandparents of the homeowners were living in these ADUs so that they could remain close to the family without completely involving themselves in the family’s lives. We like to think of it as a way for a family to stick together while still retaining independence. It works for young teenagers or adult children as well, as they are able to use ADUs as transitional spaces before completely moving out in the real world.
• Earn Extra Monthly Income – ADUs offer one of the best ways for you to earn extra monthly income as a homeowner. This extra income can act as a “second job”, helping you to pay off your mortgage, save for your children’s college, or take that big vacation you’ve always wanted. The best part about ADUs is that they have their own entrances, meaning you’ll never have to worry about your tenants disturbing your family life. This also works the other way around, If you are an older couple and the kids are out of the house, you may not need 4 bedrooms and a huge living space anymore. In this case, you could move into the ADU while renting out the big house to family.
• Tax Benefits – We’re not tax experts, but if there is one thing we do know, it is that homeowners everywhere are putting their brand new ADUs on their depreciation schedules. Claiming your ADU can help you to gain back or offset any normal losses that go into paying your taxes each year.
• Provide Additional Housing – Though Riverside may not be one of the most overpopulated counties in Southern California, there are still people here struggling to find affordable housing. You can be apart of the solution to the housing crisis by building an ADU. It is a wonderful way to provide affordable housing for those who aren’t quite able to afford a home for themselves yet.
• Extra Work Space – If you are someone who works from home, or if you are someone who is looking for a nice art or hobby space that is detached from your main house space, and ADU might be perfect for you. It is a wonderful way to build your own private space that separates home and work life.
