ADUs are called affordable homes for exactly that reason. And when speed of construction is combined with affordability, they can be the perfect solution to housing problems following a marriage or relationship break-up. In this book, we have also discussed the options available to you as parents where it is the norm for families to stay and live together. The ADU provides an ideal, financially viable solution to expand your existing property, either with extensions or independent ADUs built on the main property. Where this solution also works well is that as you get older, you may find you don’t want all the hassles that come with maintaining a large property, so you could move into one of the ADUs you have built on the plot and let a family member move into the main house. ADUs allow the creation of multiple family- oriented scenarios that can provide great flexibility.
