New Secondary Unit in

San Jose, Ca

If you have a reasonably sized house, and an even more reasonably sized ADU, you’ve likely got a pretty green combination with some social benefits as well.   You could have your best friend, your mother, or your grown kid, live with you. Also, you can get legal rental income from a permitted ADU, or, if you want, you can live in the ADU and rent out the other dwelling.  That should add a lot of flexibility to finances.
