Considering an ADU First?

In Altadena, some homeowners may be able to build an ADU
before rebuilding the main house

This can be a practical solution while insurance, financing, or design decisions for the main home are still being resolved. Our team can help assess whether an ADU-first approach is a good fit for your property.
