San Francisco Bay Area and throughout most of California, owning a home has always been an investment. However, due to the ever-changing housing market, more homeowners are coming to the realization that the home is not the only asset — it is the space on their property that is most needed.
Homeowners are able to do ADU installations and change their underdeveloped real estate into living space for their family members, caregivers, or for rental units.
This solution is community positive, practical, and future oriented. It creates value for the homeowners and for the whole community.
This is the need that turnkey ADU installations provider Symbihom, U.S. based market leader, was established to accommodate.
Why ADUs Are the Best Investment for Homeowners
For good reason, California has been witnessing a phenomenal rise in the installation of ADUs.
An ADU is a unit that offers:
- Additional living space around one’s home
- Financial gains over the long run
- Increase in property’s worth and advantage in potential resale
- Flexibility in the use of space for different family or life cycle stages
Instead of moving to a bigger house or expanding the house by Major construction, ADU installations allow the building of a living unit faster and more affordably and sustainably.
It is simple enough to see why homeowners are transforming underused areas of their homes — like side yards, backyards, garages, and other under-built spots — into units for modern homes.
The Value of An ADU
ADU-equipped homes stay on the market for less time and sell for more than homes without ADUs, and this has been backed by research. Experts in real estate believe this is due to the following:
- Instant square footage increase
An entire living unit translates to increased volume of a space. This means that a property has more space to sell and offers more value.
- Dual-use functionality
An ADU offers functionality that a variety of buyers will find useful — whether it is a remote worker, a multigenerational family, or a landlord looking to rent it out.
- Income-generating asset
Rental properties contribute to the value of a property, and this is highly desirable to buyers, lenders, and investors.
In California, and for many homeowners, ADUs are the home improvement that will bring in the most return in investment.
ADUs are a great option for housing complexes that strengthen family bonds. For decades, modern families have been living with their adult children and aging parents. This is a great way to offer support and connection, particularly since modern families tend to value privacy and independence.
ADUs offer the perfect solution!
Some of the most common family-based options of an ADU include:
- Housing aging family members who wish to keep their independence and not live too far
- Giving a transitional space to a young adult who is about to enter the work field or go to university
- Medical care and support accommodation
- Private and comfortable space for relatives
Families do not need to make hard decisions about relocation or find senior housing. Families can keep their physical and emotional closeness while keeping their privacy and independence.
These relationship benefits include the aforementioned closeness:
- ADUs provide Flexible resource use that changes as needs change
- One of the most significant improvements that ADUs offer is their adaptability
A homeowner might need:
- Rental space in the future
- A guest house later
- Workspace or studio eventually
- Today housing for caregivers
An ADU is not a single use structure. It also is not a structure that will have only one use.
Additional Income through Rent
In many communities across California, California has a huge rental house shortage. California also has a huge housing shortage. ADUs provide a simple solution to passive income.
Homeowners can:
- Use the ADU as housing for short term corporate rentals
- Participate in programs for renting floors to essential workers
- Rent the ADU for steady income
A rental-quality ADU is a financial safety net, whether it is used for steady income or for occasional use.
Why Symbihom Is the Most Convenient Path to ADU Installation

Symbihom installations feature in-house design, project management, and fabrication in the United States with installation being done on time and on budget.
