Description
Curious about adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) to your property?
Join us for an informative, one-hour event that will walk you through everything you need to know about planning, building, and financing an ADU — from design considerations to long-term financial benefits.
ADUs, also known as in-law suites or backyard cottages, are becoming increasingly popular for homeowners seeking flexibility, additional income, or space for family. This session will explore why they’re considered a smart investment and how to get started the right way.
You’ll hear from a panel of local experts covering every side of the process:
- Ed McDonald, Owner – McDonald Contracting
- Mike Pallotta, Realtor – Sotheby’s Realty
- Christian von Stackelberg, CHFC, Radius Wealth Management
Together, they’ll share insights on:
-
The building and permitting process for ADUs in Massachusetts
-
Design and construction considerations for your property
-
Financing options and long-term return on investment
-
Real-life examples of successful ADU projects
Whether you’re a homeowner, investor, or simply curious about your property’s potential, this session will give you the tools and confidence to move forward.
