Frequently Asked Questions

An ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) is a small, self-contained home built on the same property as an existing residence. They’re gaining popularity in Boise because they offer affordable housing options, increase property value, and provide flexible uses such as rental income, housing for family members, or a private home office.
