So excited about this beautiful design for a custom ADU in Vista! Designed to blend seamlessly with the aesthetic of the main home, this 1200 sqft 2BR2BA accessory dwelling unit also includes an oversized garage.
The homeowner is building this ADU for his parents to move into. With a background in construction himself, he's opting to complete the interior finish work on his own, with the SnapADU team handling the design, permitting, sitework and completing the exterior - we'll deliver the ADU interior completed with drywall only.
We call this our "TNT" option, short for tape and texture, which refers to the drywall. This option is great for homeowners who have some familiarity with construction and want to handle finishes, but prefer not to handle an entire ADU project on their own.

Our quick take on Vista: ADU-Friendly
SnapADU has permitted or is in the process of permitting numerous projects within the city, and we know the city's regulations and processes very well. Turnaround times at the city are extremely fast; however, clients should anticipate higher permit fees (closer to $20/sqft), as plan check, building permit, and impact fees are not waived for ADUs >750 sqft (Impact fees will be proportional to the size of the primary dwelling). Also, soils reports are generally required for ADUs, as well as storm water mitigation. To balance this, Vista does offer a fee waiver program for qualified ADUs (either for caregivers or low income). Vista requires in-person submissions which does add some processing expense.
