CAN I BUILD?
Address Lookup Tool
Good news: New state laws make it even easier to build an ADU and a Junior ADU.
If you want to build an ADU that would add square footage to your property, use our lookup tool to see what you’re eligible to build.
In most cases, if you live in a legally built single family home and meet fire codes, you can convert any existing structure into an ADU.
If you are looking to build something new that adds square footage to your property, you’ll want to use our address lookup tool and talk to your city about what you’re eligible to build.
Complete the “Property Information Summary” and use the “Questions to Ask a City Planner” activities in our workbook to guide your meeting with the city.
