Global All About ADUs

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

  • 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
