Yes. Houston allows ADUs up to 900 square feet as either attached or detached structures, with a full kitchen and bathroom, and proper setbacks (5 ft rear and side, 15 ft front). We handle all permits and inspections so you don't have to.
Maybe — every HOA is different. Many homeowners in your area assume their HOA forbids ADUs, but most have a workable path. We review your community's restrictions during the free site visit and find the cleanest compliant approach.
Houston caps ADUs at 900 square feet as either attached or detached units, as long as the unit includes a full kitchen and bathroom and meets building codes and setback rules. We design within those rules to maximize your usable space.
Most Houston ADUs rent for $1,200–$2,500/month depending on size, location, and finish level. A well-built 800 sq ft detached ADU in a good neighborhood often pays for its own build cost within 6–10 years through rental income. We can help you think through the numbers during the free site visit.
