Happy New Year, everybody! Our first episode of 2020 is part 3 of our mini-series on Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). This time, we’re talking about the difference between detached and attached ADUs and the unique quirks of ADUs in the Seattle, Washington market.

Our guest today is Ben Anderson, a software engineer with a life-long passion for personal finance. He recently purchased his first house hack - a single family home with an ADU in Seattle, WA. Ben strives to balance his professional and financial pursuits with his passions for the double bass and circus arts.

In this episode, Ben shares insights about purchasing his first ADU. He talks about why an ADU made more sense than a traditional multifamily property, how laws in Seattle have changed, and how he found his information about ADUs. Ben also talks about what he would do differently if he had to do everything over again.
