Casita & ADU FAQs

Zoning and building codes vary by city and even by neighborhood. Some areas in Paradise Valley and Arcadia have strict limitations, while Scottsdale tends to be more flexible. We help you navigate local regulations and determine what’s feasible on your specific lot.

Casitas and ADUs can serve as guest houses, in-law suites, home offices, rental units, or private retreats. Depending on the design, they can include full kitchens, bathrooms, and living spaces. We work with you to customize the layout based on your goals.

In most cases, yes — especially in high-demand markets like Scottsdale and Arcadia. A well-designed, permitted ADU adds livable square footage and flexibility that appeals to buyers. It can also provide income potential if rented out long-term or seasonally.

Setback requirements differ depending on the jurisdiction and your lot's zoning. For example, Scottsdale may allow closer setbacks than Paradise Valley. During planning, we work with city officials to ensure full compliance while maximizing usable space.

ADUs can either share utilities with the main home or have separate meters, depending on the design and your goals. We’ll advise on what makes the most sense for your property and coordinate with utility providers during construction.

Timelines vary based on size, permitting, and customization. A typical casita or ADU project takes 4–6 months from permit to completion. We provide a detailed timeline after our initial consultation and keep you updated every step of the way.
