Imagine this: A brand-new space in your backyard that pays you every month. Or a private retreat where your aging parents can live comfortably—close, but not too close. Or even a stylish home office where you can finally focus without distractions.
This isn’t a fantasy; it’s the reality of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), and Burlingame homeowners are racing to build them before 2026. Why? Because the benefits go far beyond extra income.
If you’ve been thinking about adding an ADU but aren’t sure if it’s worth it, this is your sign to act now. Changes in local regulations, skyrocketing property values, and shifting lifestyles are making ADUs one of the smartest investments you can make.

The Hidden Perks of ADUs That Nobody Talks About
Yes, ADUs can generate rental income (and in the Bay Area, that could mean $3,000+ per month). But what most people don’t realize is that these small homes solve big problems:
✅ Aging Parents? An ADU lets them live nearby while maintaining independence.
✅ Adult Kids Moving Back? Give them privacy (and save your sanity).
✅ Need a Home Office or Gym? Escape the noise of the main house.
✅ Planning for Retirement? Rent it out now, move in later.
ADUs aren’t just a trend—they’re a lifesaver for families at every stage. And with new laws making them easier to build, demand is exploding.
Why 2026 Could Change Everything
Local governments are fast-tracking ADU approvals now, but that might not last forever. As more people catch on, permits could get stricter, and construction costs could rise. Here’s what’s at stake:
Easier Approvals – Current laws streamline the process, but future restrictions could slow things down.
Lower Costs – Construction prices are climbing yearly. Building now locks in today’s rates.
Higher Home Value – ADUs boost property value instantly, sometimes by $200K or more.
The question isn’t "Should I build an ADU?"—it’s "Why haven’t I started yet?"
