Why Homeowners Consider an ADU
An accessory dwelling unit can serve a variety of purposes depending on the homeowner's situation. Common motivations include creating a granny flat or in-law suite for aging family members, building a backyard cottage for additional living space, or developing a detached ADU that can be rented out for supplemental income.
Some of the practical reasons homeowners pursue an ADU project include:
- Enhanced safety and accessibility for family members
- Increased home value and long-term financial benefit
- Greater independence for aging relatives
- Customization to meet specific household needs
- Improved sense of community and connection within the home
Corbett Design Build's experience with aging-in-place remodeling makes them a relevant option for homeowners specifically looking to build an in-law suite or Casita that accommodates accessibility requirements.
