Last week, Governor Gavin Newsom of California has signed several new bills that will greatly improve ADU and general housing regulations.

If you’ve had your hand on the ADU pulse for the last couple of years, you’ll remember the six amazing bills that massively improved ADU regulations in 2020, and it feels like we’re reliving that moment all over again.

From height restrictions to setbacks, these are changes that are going to greatly improve homeowners’ experiences in building their dream ADUs.

Let's take a quick look at each of the new bills:
0:50 AB 2221: Permitting process improved; max height restrictions expanded; front setbacks are now state exempt
5:04 SB 897: Unpermitted work on your property can no longer prevent you from building an ADU *UNLESS the unpermitted work is a health or safety concern; demolition permits are guaranteed; Group R is no longer triggered
7:23 AB 916: Interior spaces can now be converted into a bedroom
8:00 AB 157 CalHFA to convene a working group

ADUs are a treasure trove of amazing benefits that we think every family across the country could benefit from. Also called granny flats, casitas, in-law suites, and even laneway homes, these mighty units have been popping up everywhere thanks to recent legislation changes.

But, what the heck is an ADU?

WHAT IS AN ADU?
ADU stands for accessory dwelling unit. An ADU is a permanent additional housing structure built on a property that already has a main home or main structure. You may have heard them referred to as granny flats, casitas, guest houses, or in-law suites. They can be built on a single-family lot or multi-family lot (duplexes count as multi-family).

HOW TO START YOUR ADU

First step is checking your local ADU regulations to get a basic understanding of what you are or aren't allowed to build. However, you don't have to become an expert! Ideally, your designer should already have a deep understanding of your city's regulations.

Once you have that covered, you'll want to get pre-approved by a lender. There are few things more heartbreaking than having your designs and permits in hand only to find out that you don't qualify, so talking to a lender very early on in the process is a great idea.
