ADU Kit Homes FAQs

1. How does an "ADU Kit Home" differ from a standard shed or shell?

While a basic "shell" kit only provides the exterior framing, ADU kit homes are designed as full residential structures. This means the plans include designated spaces for a kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping quarters that meet strict "habitability" codes. They are engineered for long-term living, featuring higher-grade insulation and structural reinforcements required for permanent housing.

2. Can I get financing for an ADU kit home?

Yes! Because ADU kit homes are considered permanent improvements to your real estate, you have more options than you would for a simple shed. Most homeowners use a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) or a construction-to-permanent loan. Some states even offer specific ADU grants (up to $40,000–$100,000 in certain areas) to help homeowners create more affordable housing units.

3. Are these kits "permit-ready" for my specific city?

Most reputable ADU kit homes come with "mastered" or "standardized" architectural plans. These are pre-engineered to meet national building codes, which can significantly speed up your local approval process. However, you will still need a site-specific permit to show your local building department exactly where the unit sits on your lot and how it connects to your utilities.

4. Do I need separate utility meters for an ADU?

It depends on your goals. You can "sub-meter" the ADU kit homes to track usage while sharing the main house's connection, which is cheaper upfront. However, if you plan to use the ADU as a long-term rental, many owners prefer to install separate electric or water meters so tenants can pay their own bills directly to the utility provider.

5. What is the typical "all-in" cost beyond the kit price?

The kit itself is usually about 40-60% of the total project cost. Beyond the purchase price of ADU kit homes, you should budget for:

  • Site Prep: Leveling and foundation (slab or piers).

  • Utility Trenching: Running pipes and wires from the main house.

  • Labor: If you aren't DIYing the assembly.

  • Permit Fees: Local government "impact" fees can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars.
