“The most common ADU mistake I see in LA: building to the maximum square footage without asking what the renter actually wants. A well-designed 500 sqft ADU with good natural light, real storage, and in-unit laundry rents for 15% more and stays occupied longer than a poorly designed 750 sqft unit.”
Verify your lot's utility lateral capacities before finalizing your ADU design. Some lots in older Valley neighborhoods have undersized sewer laterals or water service lines that need upgrading to serve a second unit. Discovery at permit submittal creates scope and budget changes; discovery in feasibility planning is manageable.
The most common adu construction mistakes in Granada Hills are: selecting a contractor based on price alone without verifying CSLB license and insurance, approving change orders verbally rather than in writing, and starting work before permits are issued. All three create financial and legal exposure that's avoidable with careful contractor selection and contract management.
