What does ADU mean in HOUSING & AMENITIES

Generally, to qualify for an ADU you will need to meet certain income requirements. Local governments may also require other qualifications such as length of residence or proof of legal residency status.

It depends on the local jurisdiction and regulations, but generally ADUs are limited to two adults plus any children under 18 living in the household.

Not always — it depends on the rental agreement between tenant and landlord. Generally, basic utilities such as heat, water and electricity are the responsibility of the tenant and may not be included in the rent amount.

Depending on local laws and regulations, tenants can be evicted from an ADU if they fail to make their required rent payments. It's important to keep up with payments as well as communicate with your landlord should any issues arise.

Generally speaking no. In most cases, subletting is not allowed from private landlords renting out affordable units as this violates terms and conditions of most rental agreements. However, some public housing providers may allow it under certain circumstances.

This is something that varies depending on each individual situation; there may not be allocated parking or it could be subject to additional fees or stipulated conditions such as using electric vehicles only etc., so you should speak directly with your landlord or building manager to find out your options.
