WHAT WE OFFER
Discover affordable housing solutions.

At BuiltADU, we specialize in installing manufactured homes—both as primary residences and as Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). If you have extra space on your property and want a cost-effective way to add a private, self-contained living space, a manufactured home ADU is an ideal solution. Whether you’re creating housing for a family member or generating rental income, it’s a smart investment that also increases your property’s value.

Built to last a lifetime

Every manufactured home we deliver—whether for a primary residence or ADU—is HUD-approved at the factory and constructed to the highest standards. Once installed, it undergoes all required on-site inspections to ensure full compliance with local and state codes. With BuiltADU, you’re investing in durable, high-quality construction designed to stand the test of time

We can install the manufactured home as either a primary residence or an ADU, and have it legally registered as real property through Form 433A, once it’s placed on a permanent foundation.

Getting started
  • How Much Does It Cost?

    The first question everyone asks: what’s the price? We provide clear, itemized estimates that outline both the cost of the manufactured home and every phase of the installation process. A solid ballpark for the combined cost of the home purchase and installation and construction work is typically $200–$300 per square foot , depending on site conditions, finishes, and project scope.

  • How do I get started?

    We begin by understanding your goals and project needs. Whether you're looking for a licensed C-47 subcontractor or full-service turnkey support, we’ve got you covered. As a licensed B-General Contractor and C-47 Manufactured Housing Contractor , we manage the entire process—from site prep and utility hookups to final finishes. We typically visit your property within 2–3 days of your call and deliver a detailed estimate shortly after.

  • How long does it take?

    Manufactured Home ADUs are much faster to complete than traditional builds. A typical timeline looks like this:
    Permitting: 8–20 weeks (varies by city/county)
    Factory Build & Delivery: 10–12 weeks (can run during permitting)
    Site Prep & Foundation: 2–3 weeks
    Installation & Finishes: 2–4 weeks
    Final Inspections: 1–2 weeks

  • Total Timeline

    Most projects are completed in 4–8 months, depending on local permitting and site conditions.
