What is an ADU and Why Do You Need a Permit?

An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is a secondary dwelling unit located on a property in addition to the primary residence. As a homeowner in San Diego, you may be considering building an ADU to increase the value of your property, generate additional income, or provide a separate living space for family members or guests. However, before you can start construction, you need to obtain the necessary permits from the local authorities.
