Build an Accessory Dwelling Unit

An ADU or Accessory Dwelling Unit can provide several options for now and into the future.
Perhaps one of the kids lives in it while they are single and you stay in your own home (or we find you a home with a lot suitable for an ADU) if the finances make sense.
We know of clients who have done that and then when the kids were married, perhaps even had children - and the ADU became too small you swap homes with them and make that your retirement home.
It is hard for young people to afford a buy or even to rent a home - and it may make financial sense to keep rent payments in the family instead of paying the high rents in the local area - or for you to move into senior living at a cost of around $8,000 a month. Just a thought. We can chat about it when we meet.
