I still remember the first time I walked into a homeowner’s backyard and saw the light in their eyes when they realized what was possible. They thought an ADU—a backyard cottage, a second unit, a “granny flat”—was something reserved for developers or people with big properties out in the country.
But the truth? Almost every homeowner inside city limits across Western Oregon—from Portland and Beaverton to Salem, Corvallis, Albany, Eugene, and Springfield—qualifies.
That moment… it changed them. And honestly, it changed me too. Because an ADU isn’t just about extra square footage. It’s about freedom. It’s about giving your parents a safe place to age near you. It’s about creating rental income that could change the trajectory of your family’s financial story forever.
👉 If you’re inside the city limits, you qualify.
👉 If you’re outside the city limits, you can still apply.
And here’s something most people don’t know: an ADU doesn’t have to be a stand-alone little house in your backyard. It can be attached to your existing home—like finishing a basement, converting a garage, or even extending a wing of your house.
The Epiphany
When I first heard about ADUs, I thought: “Okay, maybe this is just a trendy thing builders are pushing.” But then I saw what it did for real families across Oregon.
One family in Salem had been struggling to keep up with rising costs. They loved their home, but property taxes, groceries, and kids’ activities were draining them. Building an ADU gave them a second stream of income—$1,500 to $1,800 a month—that completely changed their financial reality.
Another client in Portland built an attached ADU for her mom. No more worrying about the distance, no more late-night drives when something went wrong. Her mom had her own space, but she was also right there, surrounded by love. That’s family. That’s legacy.
Busting a Big Misconception
A lot of people think ADUs are just glorified “tiny houses”—all miniature kitchens, tiny closets, and ladders to loft beds. That couldn’t be further from the truth.
In reality, ADUs in many Oregon cities—including Albany, Corvallis, and Eugene—can be up to 800 square feet. That’s bigger than most one-bedroom apartments, sometimes even rivaling a two-bedroom. You can have full-sized appliances, real living space, and a home that feels complete—not cramped.
When you reframe it this way, it stops being about “squeezing in” and starts being about expanding opportunities.
