Caption: First-time buyers can compare low-down-payment mortgage options before choosing a loan structure.

How to Finance an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU): Construction Loans and Equity Options in California and Texas

How to Finance an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU): Construction Loans and Equity Options in California and Texas Caption: Homeowners review ADU plans as they compare financing options for added living space or potential rental income. Corey Friedrich, NMLS #2746546 | Best Deal First An accessory dwelling unit, or ADU, can add flexible living space, create a potential rental income stream, or give a family member more independence without moving to a separate property. But before you start choosing cabinets or comparing contractors, you need a realistic financing plan.
