The financial logic for ADUs in Coronado is simple: leverage existing land to generate premium, tax-advantaged income.

  • 💰 **Premium Rental Income/ROI:** Coronado rental rates are among the highest in the nation. An ADU can generate passive income far exceeding county averages, providing a strong offset to high monthly carrying costs and improving **Return on Investment (ROI)**.
  • 🏡 **Luxury Multi-Gen Living:** ADUs are perfect for discreet, private accommodations for family, allowing multi-generational living without sacrificing the privacy expected in a high-end community.
  • ✅ **Building Regulations & Zoning:** State law mandates that Coronado permit at least one **ADU** and one **JADU** per single-family lot, streamlining the bureaucratic hurdles for **permitting** that once plagued development here.
  • 📈 **Massive Value Addition/Appraisal:** Due to the scarcity of multi-unit properties, a permitted ADU adds exponential value to a single-family home, instantly boosting its **appraisal value** to both investors and owner-occupiers.
