An accessory dwelling unit upgrade will increase your living space and is a great way to convert a garage that no longer houses vehicles. Maybe you have built a new garage and the old garage is not being used. If so, an ADU garage conversion can add to your home’s square footage and free up some useful space.
If you are someone who really does not use the garage that much, you can also make an ADU conversion that gives you more flexibility in the use of your house’s space. You can use your ADU to generate a monthly rental income as well as increase your home’s resale value. For example, a detached ADU, if built or renovated by the right builder, can potentially increase your property’s worth by as much as 30%.
Let’s take a closer look at ADUs by defining the upgrade itself. An ADU defines a secondary living space that is built onto an existing property, and is attached to or detached from the primary residence. An ADU can also represent an interior conversion.
An attached ADU may include the following:
A detached ADU may represent the following:
You can turn a basement or attic into an ADU if you opt for an internal remodel ADU.
Because you have various ADUs from which to choose, you cannot generalize the cost of this type of property upgrade. Typically, the most economical upgrade is a garage ADU conversion, which can span in cost from $30,000 to $60,000 or more. While most of the cost is attributed to the construction phase, you will have to account for expenses related to designing, surveying, and acquiring the necessary permits.
If you convert a garage into an ADU to generate income, the cost can be recouped in as little as a couple years. When you consider your options in this respect, it is best to build an ADU that features 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. That is because this type of ADU is easier to rent and does not cost much more than an ADU with 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom.
When you own real estate, an ADU conversion is one way you can realize a healthy return on your property. Use the space you have and make the most of it.
