SB9 for property in California
Has anyone used SB9 yet to plan a lot split, a second home on a lot, create a duplex or anything else? How challenging was the process?

Just finished my SB9 and ADU project in Los Angeles (San Fernando Valley). My original SFR was 1100sf and I added 2 units: an 800sf SB9 unit and a 750sf ADU (converted garage plus addition). Both units are 2 bedroom and 1 bath. (FYI - this was an SB9 "two unit development, not an SB9 lot split). All three units are long term rentals.
Reach out if you need a good architect or contractor for your projects (anywhere in SoCal or NorCal).
