08Rental Income

What could an ADU rent for?

Rent depends on location, size, privacy, and finish. Use this as a starting point — not a promise.

→What Shapes Rent

Neighborhood

Proximity to jobs, transit, schools, and amenities is the biggest factor.

Bedrooms & size

Each added bedroom broadens the tenant pool and typically raises rent.

Privacy

A separate entry, outdoor space, and distance from the main house matter to tenants.

Finishes & light

Well-designed, bright spaces with in-unit laundry tend to rent faster.

Regulations

Local rent stabilization and tenant protection rules may apply. Verify before planning.

Illustrative planning range only — not an appraisal, rent survey, or guarantee of income. Actual rent depends on location, condition, finishes, privacy, and market conditions. Check local listings or consult a property manager. Local rent regulations may apply.
