ADUs in LA add 20–35% to property value on average. Here's what the appraisals and rental data show.
Recent LA County sales data shows homes with permitted ADUs sell for 20–35% more than comparable homes without one. A $200,000 ADU build typically adds $250,000–$350,000 in value.
Monthly rents for LA ADUs range from $1,800 (studio) to $3,500+ (2-bed detached). Most homeowners recoup construction costs in 6–10 years.
California's Prop 13 protections mean only the new construction is reassessed — your existing home's tax basis is preserved.
