Question:
I am working on a project. My client intends to build a detached ADU around 550-600 SF.
Are there any specific restrictions or requirements for ADUs within HOAs that we need to be aware of?

Answer:
Hi Dana
It may be best to review the HOA’s specific governing documents to verify whether there are requirements or restrictions to constructing ADUs within the HOA. There may be required dimensions, materials, or other architectural rules to abide by. You may ask the HOA board for a copy of the community’s architectural standards and governing documents. In addition, it’s common for HOAs to require residents to submit a request to the board before beginning construction projects. For further guidance, kindly consult a lawyer.
