Why are ADUs so popular?

Accessory dwelling units are home additions either attached or detached to the main house. This means they can either be attached to your garage or it can be a stand-alone unit in your backyard. Usually, ADUs make use of the energy and water connections of the main home. Since they’re located in the primary residence’s property, they can’t be sold separately.
