Many property owners in Victorville choose to build an ADU for one of the following reasons:
- Add additional space for a family (kids moving home or aging parents moving closer to family.
- Rental Income – adding an ADU in your backyard is an excellent opportunity to create rental property to generate income.
An accessory dwelling unit (ADU), granny flat, or “backyard home” is a legal and regulatory term for a secondary house that shares the building lot of a larger, primary home. The unit cannot be bought or sold separately, but they are often used to provide additional income through rent or to house a family member. We build our ADUs with prefabricated construction to save time and money for clients. As ADU BUILDERS, we consider prefabricated construction to be less disruptive to homeowners and neighborhoods as we can typically complete a project onsite in a few weeks once the home is built in our factory.
