Frequently Asked Questions

In many Seattle neighborhoods, DADUs are allowed on residential lots. Zoning, lot size, setbacks, and site conditions all play a role. We also work across nearby cities like Kirkland, Bellevue, Redmond, and surrounding Eastside areas.
Not necessarily. Many DADUs in Seattle are built on standard residential lots. What matters most is site layout, access, slope, and utility connections — not just lot size.
Most DADU projects in the Seattle area typically confirm pricing in the range of $225,000 to $500,000, depending on size, layout, finishes, and site conditions. Foundation and site work are priced separately because they vary significantly by lot.
Most DADU projects follow this timeline:

Permitting:
• 2–4 months for pre-approved or standard plans • 6–8 months for fully custom designs

Construction:
• 4–6 months, depending on scope and site conditions

Overall, a typical DADU project takes approximately 8–12 months from start to finish. We provide a clear timeline upfront, so you know what to expect at every stage.
Long-term rentals are generally allowed. Short-term rentals (such as Airbnb) depend on Seattle city regulations, licensing, and zoning rules. We help you understand what’s permitted for your specific property and location.
In Seattle and nearby areas like Kirkland and Bellevue, DADUs commonly generate $2,500–$4,000 per month, depending on size, layout, and neighborhood. Rental rates typically increase over time, while financing payments remain fixed.
Yes. Through our financing partners, we offer options with rates starting around 7.5%, terms of up to 30 years, and estimated monthly payments starting around $1,400, depending on project cost and credit profile.
Yes. All DADU layouts are customized based on your goals — rental income, multigenerational living, resale value, or personal use — while staying compliant with Seattle and local building codes.
We do. Our team manages the entire permitting and inspection process with Seattle and surrounding jurisdictions, so you don’t have to navigate the process on your own.
