The Plan
L-Shaped · 1200 ft²
44 ft overall (approx.)
34 ft deep (approx.)
- 01 · Great Room + Kitchen
- A full-scale great room and kitchen with the storage and light of a single-family house. Custom cabinets and full-size appliances, installed and tested at the factory, not a shell you furnish yourself.
- 02 · Two Baths
- A bath for the primary bedroom plus a shared full bath. Fixtures and finish work are completed and inspected on our factory floor before delivery.
- 03 · Primary Bedroom
- Primary bedroom at its own end of the plan. Room for a real bed and dresser, not a loft or a sleeping nook.
- 04 · Bedroom 2
- Second bedroom along the main wing. Room for a real bed and dresser, not a loft or a sleeping nook.
- 05 · Bedroom 3
- Third bedroom with room to grow. Room for a real bed and dresser, not a loft or a sleeping nook.
- 06 · Enclosed Eaves
- Eave detailing along the roofline, enclosed as part of the factory build. It's not shown here since it's a roof-level detail, not a room.
Plate 04 · Floor Plan
Twelve Hundred · 3 Bed · 2 Bath

The Investment
What it could earn.
Beyond the rent check, an ADU is one of the few home improvements that can meaningfully raise how much home equity you have to borrow against later.
- Est. Monthly Rent
- $4,410
- Monthly Net Cash Flow
- $3,054
- Value Added to Property
- $631,350
- Cash-on-Cash Return
- 6.7%
Estimates for planning only, not financial advice. Rent is based on federal Fair Market Rent data for your bedroom count, averaged across our service area, not a guarantee for your specific address; net assumes 5% vacancy, 8% maintenance, property tax at 1.25% and insurance at 0.5% of ADU cost; an ADU is assumed to add ~115% of its cost to property value (California average). For context: California homes with an ADU carried a median appraised value of $1,064,000 in 2023 versus $715,000 for comparable homes without one, per Federal Housing Finance Agency data, not a guarantee any specific property gains that much.

Included
The $549,000 covers all of this.
01 Permitting Budget & Paperwork
A budgeted allowance for permit fees, plus our team handling the full application and city submission. Permit fees are set by each city and county, so the exact cost is confirmed during your feasibility study.
02 Plans: Site Plan & Title 24
The site plan showing exactly where your ADU sits on the lot, plus the Title 24 energy compliance report California requires for permitting. Both are prepared and submitted as part of your project.
03 Project Management
A single point of contact coordinating your project from contract through delivery, so you're not chasing subcontractors or managing a schedule yourself.
04 The Unit & All Finish Work
The complete factory-built home itself, with interior finish work, flooring, paint, trim, and fixtures, completed and inspected before it ever leaves the factory floor.
05 Foundation Work
The foundation your home sits on once it arrives on-site, confirmed for your specific property and soil conditions during your feasibility study.
06 Appliances & Custom Cabinets
A full kitchen with custom cabinets and major appliances installed and tested at the factory, not a shell you have to furnish yourself.
07 Crane Delivery & Truck Transportation
Your finished home transported by truck and set onto the foundation by crane, arriving essentially complete instead of being built on-site over months.
08 Entrance, Deck & Installation
The entrance steps and deck installed by our crew after crane-set, so the home is ready to walk into, not a bare unit missing its entry.
09 Status Updates via Text & Email
Progress updates sent to your phone and inbox as your home moves through permitting, the factory floor, and delivery, so you always know where things stand.
No surprise change orders on the build itself. Your price includes a permitting budget, but permit costs are set by each city and county, so they are confirmed in your feasibility study, along with any property-specific site work like septic upgrades or retaining walls.

“My first telephone conversation with Cathy (Owner) was one of the best, positive and kind discussions. She was thinking outside of the box and provided a possible solution like a family member. Thank you.”
