In Albuquerque, New Mexico, adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) can differ significantly between older and newer properties.

Adding an ADU is a practical way to create rental income or provide housing for family members. It's an investment that can enhance your property's value. Don't let the age of your home be a barrier.

What affects the price

Building an ADU is a major project, and the final bill depends on a few key things. Site prep is a big factor; if your land is sloped or needs extensive utility connections, costs go up. The materials you choose—from siding to kitchen finishes—also change the math significantly. Whether you’re building a detached unit or converting an existing garage shifts the permit requirements and structural work needed. We provide exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
