What's included in this Plan Set...
An easy to understand breakdown of the ADU process from concept to move-in
The first step is to assess the viability of your ADU project by considering factors such as available space, zoning restrictions, budget and financing availability.
- Maximum Allowed Square Footage
- Square Footage that fits your property
- Design rules (eg must match existing home)
- Parking requirements if applicable
- 20+ more
We've navigated the 480 California Jurisdictions. Suffice to say, we know ADU code. And we've built a software that will translate that code onto your specific property to give us a detailed plan of what can be built, what designs, and several other factors, making sure your ADU is within compliance from the start.
Once you've determined what you can build and your budget, you'll get to do the fun part of design. In this stage, you'll most likely want to work with an expert designer or architect. Consider the purpose and functionality, and work with a designer to create a space that works with your property, and your design goals, both qualitative and quantitative objectives.
How Dwellito helps
Our team of seasoned architects and designers invests the time to understand your specific needs. With Dwellito, you get access to a variety of pre-designed, customizable ADU models, enabling you to choose one that suits your style and budget.
Using advanced design tools and technologies, we ensure the optimal use of space, light, and flow. We work with you to make sure your ADU is not only beautiful but functions seamlessly. Together, we'll create a living space that's truly your own.
Before construction can begin, you'll need to secure the necessary permits and approvals from your local municipality. This may involve submitting your plans for review, addressing any concerns, and ensuring compliance with all building codes and regulations.
You can submit these yourself or work with an Architect or Designer. Permitting timelines can vary by cities but we've found that Pre-Designed Plans often go faster in Permit Review.
With permits in hand, it's time to break ground and start building. Hire a reputable contractor to execute your vision and ensure that the project is completed on time and within budget. Keep an open line of communication with your contractor throughout the process to address any unforeseen challenges.
Finally, once construction is complete, it's time to move in or rent out your new ADU. Furnish the space, set up utilities, and enjoy the added value and flexibility that your ADU provides. Congratulations on successfully navigating this rewarding process!

Before any construction can start, you'll need to obtain the necessary building permits. These requirements vary depending on your local jurisdiction's laws and regulations. We'll create the construction drawing set for the permit review.
Although this may seem daunting, don't worry, we'll assist you through this process to ensure everything is smooth. It's a breeze.
Once you've selected your design, it's time to plan your budget and secure financing.
Carefully consider what you can comfortably afford, taking into account not just the cost of the home itself, but also the land (if not already owned), site preparation work, potential upgrades, and any customization you might desire.
Various financing options are available, and we can help guide you to the best choice for your circumstances.
Start with selecting between a custom prefab home tailored to your preferences, or choose from a range of pre-designed homes. Both options offer their own unique advantages and can result in a home you'll love.
Whether you prefer the speed and efficiency of a Prefab ADU, or the limitless customization of a Site-built unit, our expertise in architectural design will help you get a plan that you love, and that your city will approve.
This step involves two simultaneous processes. Locally, a contractor will prepare your site, which includes constructing the foundation and setting up utilities.
During that time, your chosen prefab home design is being meticulously built in a controlled factory environment, without the risk of weather delays or missing contractors.
Once construction is complete, your prefab home is carefully shipped as either a kit of parts, or a fully assembled home to your site.
A crane is then used to precisely position the home onto the foundation, where it is secured and properly installed. Utilities are then connected to the home, ensuring it has all the modern comforts you'd expect.
Our comprehensive service ensures a hassle-free, seamless journey from concept to completion
