Global All About ADUs

The ADU Get Together: An event for California REALTORS® to network and learn.

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are reshaping California’s housing market and creating new opportunities for REALTORS® to help clients maximize value, generate income, and navigate shifting property laws. 

Whether it's a backyard cottage, garage conversion, or attached unit, ADUs are new opportunities for today’s buyers, sellers, and investors.

Two guest speakers will touch on the following topics:

Understanding AB1033: Turning ADUs into separate, sellable assets

  • Construction Costs, Permits, and Legal Landscape
  • Realistic cost breakdowns for ADU construction in 2025
  • How permit processes differ by city and what delays deals
  • Updates on California ADU laws
  • Compliance pitfalls that kill projects before they start

Tax Strategies & Valuation Insights

  • ADU tax segregation: What it is and how it helps your clients
  • How ADUs affect property taxes and long-term financial planning
