ADU Costs and Recommendations on a Builder in San Diego

[Stacey Hoyt]

We have a property in San Diego near Balboa Park. We would like to build a permitted ADU. I have been getting pricing and it is twice what I am being told by people in the field. Has the building taken off to such a degree as to warrant almost twice the cost? Second, does anyone have a builder that they would recommend that knows this area and does not have to be micro managed? I am hoping to find someone who has done this work in my area recently and is reasonable, not cheap, but reasonable. Thank you!
