3 Ways We Help You

There are three ways for you to use How To ADU.

  1. DIY - Free articles - videos - phone consultation

  2. A little bit of help - Hourly ADU Advice and Help

  3. Custom turn-key service - We learn about your project and draw up a bespoke agreement to take care of everything on your budget

1. Free resources about ADU development - When you've got common questions about ADUs, we have created many articles and videos that can help you answer those questions. These are free to access. We can also do short phone consultations to explore what's possible for your project. You can book one of those free consultations here.

2. Hourly ADU Advice and Help - You want to handle parts of this process yourself, but you want a bit of help at key points where we can add the most value. We dig deep into your goals and help you find the best way forward. When your project gets hung up on something, we can help you get over that hurdle. We offer hourly consultation on services including planning, design, permitting, land use determination, property management, and more. If you want to manage your own project, but want access to our expertise and our vetted network of vendors, we charge an hourly rate of $100 an hour with a $500 retainer that covers your first five hours of work. We approve all hours with you, before doing the work so you have full oversight over the process. Email hello@how-to-adu.com if you’re interested in hourly consultation.

3. Custom turn-key service - If you'd like us to take care of everything, we offer turn key service and the rate varies depending on the scope of the project and your desires. Project managing your own ADU can easily become a full time job - so if you'd rather shop that out, we're here to help. We’ll talk to you about your project and give you bespoke rates and a contract to make sure we can. Email hello@how-to-adu.com if you’re interested in custom turn-key service.
