No, in the State of California you only need to hire a licensed Architect if you are building residential construction that is taller than two stories. And conveniently the California ADU laws do not allow ADUs over two stories high, so building an ADU anywhere in California does not require an Architect. Costs to construct a 'ground-up' new ADU will vary considerably based on size. An accessory dwelling unit is a fully functional living space that can fall into one of three categories: Interior, within the primary residence and often is converted space in a basement or attic, for example.

An accessory dwelling unit is a fully functional living space that can fall into one of three categories: Interior, within the primary residence and often is converted space in a basement or attic, for example. Attached, built as an addition to the main house. ADUs are an affordable type of home to construct in California because they do not require paying for land, major new infrastructure, structured parking, or elevators. ADUs can provide a source of income for homeowners. Now all your startup costs with this new building are tax-deductible providing you with real ADU tax benefits. You can deduct the cost of forming your LLC as well as any and all startup costs involved. Next the cost of the building can be depreciated at once so long as you have a listing to rent. Speaking of clearing out clutter from the garage, ADUs can be established in existing structures, including pool houses or underused garages. Homeowners can even convert a portion of their existing residence into an ADU, as long as it has its own entrance, a kitchen, and at least one bathroom. Prefab ADUs are a less-expensive option for a detached ADU, since there are no architect or design costs included. Less-expensive prefab dwelling units start at $25,000 - but keep in mind that estimate does not include construction costs or permitting costs, which can be quite high. The state of California considers an ADU loft to be a second story. Like any habitable bedroom or living room, the loft must have an area where the ceiling is at least 7 feet high. The city of Los Angeles has allowed ADUs on most residentially zoned lots regardless of their size as long as the structure meets the basic restrictions and there is an existing home already on the property (with only minor exceptions), meaning most LA homeowners have an opportunity to add an ADU on their property. The expenses of building a new ADU, including all materials, plans, permits, etc., will qualify to be depreciated as real property. You can start depreciating as of the date the unit is available for rent or is rented. Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are a hot topic in cities and counties across America. ... The approvals process for ADU's in California has been streamlined as of January 2020 and, depending on local approvals, your Connect Home ADU can be ready for occupation in as little as 6 months. The overall cost of installing your prefab will be about the same price as a conventional stick and build structure. Don't use price as a motivating factor towards your decision. Consider the other pros there are to prefabs before committing. OC ADU Architect Designer |
