Why San Diego Families Are Going Crazy for ADUs Right Now
Let’s talk about what’s really happening in San Diego’s housing market. Rent prices are through the roof, home values keep climbing, and families need creative solutions to make it all work.
An ADU is like having a money machine in your backyard. The average San Diego ADU rents for $2,000-$3,500 per month. That’s $24,000-$42,000 in annual income from space you’re probably not using anyway.
But rental income is just one piece of the puzzle. Maybe you need space for aging parents who want to stay close but keep their independence. Or your college kid needs somewhere affordable to live while they figure out their next move. An ADU gives your family options that just weren’t possible before.
And here’s the kicker – a well-designed ADU typically adds $150,000-$300,000 to your home’s value in San Diego. You’re not spending money on an ADU, you’re investing it.
The best part? San Diego’s new ADU laws make it easier than ever to build. The city actually wants you to add housing, so they’ve streamlined the approval process and reduced a lot of the old red tape.

What Makes Our ADU Design Process Different
Here’s where our jewelry business background really shines. Gil learned that when someone makes a big investment, they need to trust the process completely. ADU projects can feel overwhelming, so we’ve made ours as smooth as possible.
No hidden surprises – When we quote your ADU project, that price includes everything from permits to final inspection.

Here’s what we’ve learned after years of ADU projects: the families who are happiest with their ADUs are the ones who felt informed and involved throughout the entire process. That’s exactly how we approach every project.

Smart ADU Design Ideas
Open floor plans make small spaces feel much larger. We design ADUs that flow naturally from room to room.
Outdoor connections are huge in San Diego’s climate. Sliding doors to a private patio or garden area make your ADU feel twice as big.
Smart storage solutions turn every square foot into functional space. Built-in storage, murphy beds, and multi-purpose furniture are game-changers.
Separate entrances give your ADU tenants privacy while keeping your main house secure.
Energy efficiency keeps utility costs low and makes your ADU more attractive to renters. Solar panels, LED lighting, and proper insulation pay for themselves quickly.
Why Now Is the Perfect Time for Your ADU
San Diego’s ADU laws have never been more favorable. The city wants more housing, so they’ve made the approval process faster and simpler.
Construction costs aren’t getting cheaper. Labor and materials typically increase 3-5% every year. The ADU you build today will cost more if you wait until next year.
Rental demand is at an all-time high. Quality ADUs in good neighborhoods rent immediately, often with waiting lists.
Interest rates for home improvement loans are still reasonable compared to what they might be in the future.
The bottom line: every month you wait is money you’re not making.
