Accessory Dwelling Units

Accessory Dwelling Units in Portland are a great way to adapt home ownership to a changing lifestyle. Whether it is used as a rental for income, a home for extended family or a home office/ studio, it’s a flexible and cost effective way to add freedom to your lifestyle.

What are the benefits of ADUs?
* ADUs are an affordable type of home to construct because they do not require paying for land, major new infrastructure, structured parking, or elevators.
* ADUs can provide a source of income for homeowners.
* ADUs allow extended families to be near one another while maintaining privacy.
* ADUs can provide as much living space as many newly-built apartments and condominiums, and they’re suited well for couples, small families, friends, young people, and seniors.
* ADUs give homeowners the flexibility to share independent living areas with family members and others, allowing seniors to age in place as they require more care.
