It is from an ‘ADU Standard Plan Program’ that offers unique, creative, innovative and functional ADU designs that makes it relatively easier to build an Accessory Dwelling Unit or a Granny Flat. As of late, the Los Angeles Department of Building & Safety (LADBS) has launched more than two dozen pre-approved ADU plans. It is of great use to ADU builders, general contractors and homeowners that can use these new ADU designs for acquiring a construction permit is a comparatively faster and cost-effective way. Previously it would take around 120 days for a design approval and issuing or permits, which has now been shortened to 60 days, which is half the time. At Victory Home Remodeling, we can help you understand the ADU plans & permits in an extensive way.
As a matter of fact, this particular ADU Standard Plan Program shortens the overall review process from 5-6 weeks to as little as one day. What’s more interesting is that these flexible plans are designed in a way to perfectly suit all residential zoned properties. It ranges from studio apartments to 2-storey ADU plans.
In general, the ADU Standard Plan Program intends to offset the housing crisis in Los Angeles, by creating more affordable housing options. The main aim of these pre-approved ADU designs & floor plans is to make it relatively easier for homeowners to build such an accessory dwelling unit on an existing property. It can either be by converting an old garage into an ADU or a new dwelling unit from scratch. One such ADU garage conversion helps create more living space, which also includes designing a home-office that can be rented out for earning a steady flow of rental income, every month. This program helps an ADU become more self-sufficient and accessible.
