have some questions?
How much does a typical ADU cost?
Our tiny homes start at 125k, but that price depends on the size and finishes you choose. We offer standard options as well as upgrades and modifications to suit your needs.
how do i know if i can build a tiny home on my property?
You'll want to start by checking your zoning laws and the requirements for a detached dwelling. Generally, in Phoenix, AZ and the surrounding areas, your lot needs to be at least 10,000 square feet. In addition, ADUs are subject to maximum height and lot coverage requirements.
what does stick-built mean?
Stick built simply means we build your ADU on site, as opposed to a pre-fab or modular home that's built and/or assembled offsite and then placed on your property.
can i increase the square footage of the model i choose?
We can typically increase square footage by increasing the linear size, however, we don't change the configurations of our models. This means we could increase a tiny house by 10 feet on each side, and the inside space would increase accordingly.
what other customizations do you offer?
All of our interior and exterior standard finishes, like cabinet pulls, flooring, interior paint, roofing, and siding can be upgraded. In certain cases, we can also accommodate modifications to match HOA requirements.
how long does it take to build an adu?
Our ADUs typically take between 6-9 months to build! However, this is dependent on your particular project and the timeline can change with your needs and requirements.
I have an hoa. Can i still have an adu?
You sure can! Some HOAs have regulations, but if your HOA allows ADUs, we can accommodate the requirements such as lap siding to match the neighborhood aesthetic.
can i rent my tiny home?
In the Phoenix, AZ area, tiny homes cannot be short-term rentals, but can be leased out long-term (more than 30 days).
what are my financing options?
Typically, construction loans, home equity lines of credit (HELOC), or cash-out refinancing are the options people take to add an ADU to their property. We have preferred lenders that can help you select the best option!
