WHAT IS AN ADU?

Accessory Dwelling Unit is the term that planning and design professionals (urban planners, architects, engineers, etc.) use to describe a second, smaller house on a homeowner's residential lot. ADU's add value and financial stability to the property. They create a greater availability of small, affordable rentals for young adults or elderly residents with fixed incomes.

WHAT IS A TANDEM HOUSE?

          A Tandem House is a second house on a property that the Local Zoning Codes consider equal in stature to the other house on the lot. This means a tandem house can be sold separately from the other house. Also, a tandem house has more flexibility in building design and form than an ADU.
