A construction-to-permanent loan funds your build then converts to a standard mortgage. One loan, one closing, streamlined for ADU projects.

Financing FAQs

How much does an ADU cost in Santa Cruz County?

Peninsula Construction ADUs range from $135,000 to $300,000 all-in depending on size, type, and finishes. That includes permits, design, and full construction - no hidden fees.

Do I need equity in my home to finance an ADU?

Not necessarily. While HELOCs require home equity, personal construction loans and other financing options are available without equity. Our lending partners will find the best fit for your situation.

How quickly can I get financing approved?

Pre-qualification can happen within 24-48 hours. Full approval timelines vary by lender and loan type, but we factor financing timelines into your project schedule from day one.

Will an ADU increase my property value?

Yes. ADUs typically add $150,000-$300,000 in property value in Santa Cruz County while generating $2,000-$3,500/month in rental income. Most ADUs pay for themselves within 6-10 years.

Can I use rental income to qualify for financing?

Many lenders allow projected ADU rental income to be factored into your qualification. This can significantly improve your borrowing power. Our lending partners specialize in this.
