Could your backyard be the solution to your family's biggest housing challenge?
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are one of the fastest-growing housing trends in America—but they're also one of the most misunderstood.
In this episode of Let's Talk Tiny, Cindy sits down with Jessica Charlesworth, founder of Rocky Mountain ADUs and the National ADU Builders Coalition, to explore how backyard homes are helping families create housing for aging parents, adult children, rental income, home offices, and more.
But here's what surprises most people...
Not everyone should build an ADU.
Jessica shares the stories behind the families she's helped, explains who makes a great ADU candidate (and who doesn't), clears up costly misconceptions, and offers a look at where housing is headed over the next decade.
Whether you're considering an ADU, exploring tiny living, or simply looking for smarter housing options, this conversation will help you think differently about what's possible with the property you already own.
In this episode you'll learn:
• What an ADU is—and how it's different from a tiny home
• Who benefits most from building an ADU
• Common myths that could cost homeowners thousands of dollars
• When an ADU is the wrong solution
• How ADUs are changing the future of housing
• Why more families are choosing to stay together while living independently
