“Looks even better in person than the photos. The glass wall is a showstopper.”

Everything you're wondering

Is it really installed in a single day?

Yes. Your ADU arrives 95% complete from our offsite facility. With a crane, our crew assembles and connects it in just hours. Many clients are shocked to see a fully finished space ready the same day.

How does this compare to traditional construction costs?

Traditional ADUs often run $300–$400 per sq. ft. and take 12–18 months. Casden ADUs average $225–$236 per sq. ft. and are installed in 16 weeks total, saving both time and 33–60% in cost.

What kind of return can I expect from an ADU?

A Casden ADU typically adds $200K–$1M in property value and can generate $2,000–$4,000/month in rental income, depending on your location.

Do Casden ADUs meet California codes and permits?

Yes. Casden's one- and three-bedroom factory-built plan sets are approved for California's Factory-Built Housing program through Intertek under approval numbers R-22348 and R-22345. The factory-built structure is pre-approved; foundation, utilities, site work, zoning, and other local requirements still need approval from your city or county.

What about durability, earthquakes, fire, and weather?

Casden ADUs are seismic grade 10, fire-resistant (steel and rock wool construction), hurricane-resistant, and engineered for California's diverse climates, from desert heat to mountain snow.
