@georgewolfiii1170 8 месяцев назад

In 1978 I built an ADU next to my mother’s house by converting the single-car garage into a bedroom, and building a hallway to another tiny bedroom, that I converted into a small kitchen. At the time it was not called an Acessory-Dwelling-Unit, it was called an “illegal rental.” But now I am guessing it has become legal? I spent $3,000 of my own money to build the ADU, and over the last 45 years it has brought in approximately $250,000 in rent.

@susiefrades-white3088 6 месяцев назад

I am not a lawyer, but.... it is tech legal but there laws about it. From what I understand most anyone can put up an ADU without many stipulations. If you wanted to sell it there might be a bit of red tape. Maybe you need some kind of a permit for things? Just a thought

@georgewolfiii1170 6 месяцев назад

@@susiefrades-white3088 It used to be that real-estate salesmen considered anything built without a building permit to have no value, and in addition, the buyer is required to demolish and haul away anything built without a permit. Nevertheless, that little illegal rental is still going, and still pulling in passive income after 45 years!

This is overall getting better and better for California: Here's my take on all this living in an Jr. ADU (garage) myself for the past 7-years: 1) The parking issues could be solved by doing what the City of Cerritos has done for years.... That's only allow 2- Overnight vehicles to be parked on the public street between the hours of roughly 10pm-5am each household having 2 overnight vehicle passes visible 2) Being able to sell an ADU is awesome as many adult children who are married with one child can Not quality for a $700K home loan, however, \who they rent from, many times their Father or family member can sell then that ADU for $239K and both side win The key here is city zone codes MUST eventually allow these $69K 2-bed/2bath manufactured home to be placed in backyards and on private land.... That will truly open up things

Hi Ryan I stumbled across your RU-vid channel found it to be very informative. Great work. I completed a detached ADU in Ventura County in February. It rented the first day. I'd like to build a second detached ADU but state law currently limits this. Any chance the legislature will move to allow more than one? Not interested in a JADU.

@HowToADU 6 месяцев назад

State rules would allow you to do one conversion ADU and one detached new build under a certain size. Any chance either of your detached could count as conversions?

@kdockrey 9 месяцев назад

Do lawmakers have a clue about the cost of turning a multi-family building into condos? The cost to do a condo conversion is prohibitively expensive unless one owns the property outright even there are no barriers such as shared water meters, gas meters, and electric service.

The problem is while the state releases these new laws/mandates, the local municipalities don't follow them and still enforce their own laws. The state does not enforce these laws on local municipalities, so they're essentially useless depending the your city/county your property falls under.

@HowToADU 9 месяцев назад

It’s A problem. But it’s not so hopeless. Big cities get sued and the lawsuits hurt. And a lot of places that originally fought ADUs ended up embracing them eventually because it’s a more seemly way to hit housing numbers in their eyes (once they saw a few thousand go up!)

@HowToADU 8 месяцев назад

You're right ! In fact, back in 2022, I made a video about how SB 9 units could theoretically be converted into condos and sold separately. But the truth is SB 9 adoption has been very slow (early days) compared to ADUs. So flipping a switch that makes ALL ADUs that are already built in California "condo-izable" is a very big shift.

What a despicably sneaky way to automatically rezone all qualifying single family zoned lots into multifamily duplex/triplex. This will only benefit the service industry who builds, installs, and fights the legal battles. The owners who do this are going crush the total value of their property. Anyone who does this will have to create a condo association for their condo and then manage it. Who's going to manage a condo association that has only one or two units - how can the cost be profitably amortized over just one unit? This cost along with the reduction in the value of the primary residence is going to reduce the properties total property value and that of the neighborhood. The political hacks who wrote these laws very likely live in neighborhoods that will not allow ADUs,.

It really makes no sense to sell an ADU, it is an inflation proof source of income, that grows in value each year, and unlike an investment property across town, or in another city, it is right next to you where you can keep an eye on it. Selling it means you lose control over a property in your back or side yard, with no guarantees as to what the new owner will do with it, and you are reducing the size of your real property for a one time payment for which you will have to pay capital gains taxes, plus all of the associated costs of the sell. Better to think of that ADU as a built in retirement fund that is inflation proof, and grows in value as long as you hold it, while throwing off a nice extra monthly income.

@HowToADU Месяц назад

I’ve lived in the same apartment since 2018. 4 of us got kicked out of our parking spots and garages so that the landlord can make ADU’s. We lost our paid storage space as well as our paid parking spots. We already have TERRIBLE street parking which the city of Long Beach tickets $79 on for street sweeping violations TWICE a week. We already can’t go anywhere on Tuesday or Wednesday evening because we will lose our spot. Coming home in the evening is not an option twice a week, not that you’d want to anymore because crime has skyrocketed here and the police don’t show up anymore (not an exaggeration). The owner of our property has two complexes on our street so this puts 8 (at minimum) more cars on the street. When these new tenants move in you can bump that up to 12. So, thanks but no thanks on the ADU’s. Sure it’s great for people who own properties but is it great for everyone else?

AB976 Does Not Remove Previous Owner Occupancy Deed Restrictions. If you built an ADU during the period of owner occupancy deed restrictions cities will not remove a deed restriction. So you're stuck w/ it!

My buddy has a 20 acre ranch would he be able to sell me a small piece of land so that I can make an ADU with this new law? Would I own the land under the ADU?

@Good-luck-Jonathan 8 месяцев назад

You can own the ADU would need to do a lot split for that piece of the land. Definitely do the lot split first then build the ADU.

@@Good-luck-Jonathan If it is a ranch it might be in an agricultural area. That brings in limits quite often. My mother owns two 20 acre farms than are adjacent to each other. If they hadn't already been 20 acre lots, only one house could be built on the 40 acres.

@HowToADU 8 месяцев назад

Hey I’m CA, the ADU has to piggy back off the main house for things like land and utilities. So it’s pretty rare to split a lot and build an adu on the newly created empty lot. You’d generally see people use underlying zoning code to build a regular primary home. Rural land as pointed out by another commenter might have very specific needs in terms of zoning and also utilities/sewer. Talk to your local planning department and building department for more information. This is general information only and not advice for your specific situation.

Detached ADU...subdivide my lot...does that ADU become a new "primary single family residence".. If it is, then I can build another ADU within my new lot...

@HowToADU 9 месяцев назад

I haven’t seen that work in California personally. ADUs piggyback on the infrastructure of the primary house in some ways like utilities that could require a lot of work to separate.

We have a housing shortage and too many towns have zoned everything single family home only. Heck, you can't have a corner grocery in many suburbs so you are FORCED to drive to buy a loaf of bread.

What’s crazy or horrible about letting land owners build on their land and sell what they build? Or Giving them the freedom to live there or move away? Creating process in government? Genuinely curious. Also I am kind of crazy.

@@HowToADU The average home owner doesn't have money to build ADU. Construction and loan cost are at an all time high and are going higher. People who have money to develop will not develop own home property. Only people who will benefit from this are people that have money to buy cash and develop with cash. Go try and get a bank loan and construction loan right now the numbers don't add up.

@@danielcarroll3358 How will this get rid of the housing shortage? The best thing you can do is move near a store. Most of your neighbor moved there because they don't want grocery stores and commercial properties. They want a neighbor hood with yards and family's.
