A separate living space for an adult child, an aging parent, or rental income — attached to the house or standalone.
The appeal is straightforward: a semi-independent space for someone who needs privacy but not a whole separate address, built on land you already own. What's not straightforward is the rulebook, because Utah cities have taken different approaches to ADUs on size limits, setbacks, parking requirements, whether the unit can be rented out, and whether it can be detached or has to attach to the main house. Those rules are set city by city and they have been changing as demand grows, so anyone who states a specific limit as universal fact is guessing.
What a builder matched through us will actually do is pull your city's current requirements before design starts, not after. That includes utility connections — whether the unit shares a water and sewer tap with the main house or needs its own, which affects both cost and what your city will approve. Getting that sequence right the first time is cheaper than redesigning after a rejected permit.
