How much is a SoCal ADU?

Jimmy Cooper
Posted

Hey Gang! This seems like an appropriate question for the forums. 

How much do ADUs cost from start to finish? 

I think this question is dependent on a few factors. 1. Contractor 2. Local City Requirements 3. Time and Materials 

I recently asked a contractor friend what is a healthy estimate for an ADU, he said anywhere from 75k to 150k.

How does this compare to your experience?

Hi Jimmy, I have family in the San Diego area that were exploring an ADU through ADU Geeks, who you may be able to connect with for more info depending on where your property is located. Their average cost estimates were $250/sq foot for a single-story detached or attached ADU. Garage conversions were generally a little less.
