In the previous chapter, we explored how homeowners can rent their ADU and generate income from the additional housing space on their property.

Rental income is one of the most compelling reasons people build ADUs.

But it’s not the only financial benefit.

Many homeowners also want to understand how building an ADU affects the overall value of their property.

Does building an ADU increase resale value?

Do buyers actually want homes with ADUs?

And how do appraisers evaluate properties that include a second living unit?

In this chapter, we’ll explore how ADUs influence property value and why they have become such an attractive feature in many housing markets.
