Your application paperwork

The CalHFA ADU Grant reimburses up to 40,000 dollars of the predevelopment and non-recurring closing costs of building an accessory dwelling unit, such as site prep, architectural designs, permits, soil tests, impact fees, and surveys. You apply through a CalHFA-approved ADU lender or participant. Funding is released in rounds, so confirm a round is currently open before you count on it.

Steps to apply

  1. Confirm you own and occupy the property and meet the income limit for the current grant round.
  2. Develop your ADU plans (scope of work and budget).
  3. Contact a CalHFA-approved ADU participant or lender to start the application.
  4. Submit your ADU plans and income documentation; the grant reimburses eligible predevelopment costs.

Documents you will likely need

  • Proof you own and occupy the property.
  • Income documentation (pay stubs, W-2s, tax returns).
  • ADU plans: scope of work and budget.
  • Itemized predevelopment cost documents (designs, permits, soil tests, surveys).

Requirements vary by program and locality. Confirm the exact rules and application route with the administrator. We can help you prepare your paperwork, but you submit it yourself.
