The ADU Revolution: Taking Back What’s Ours
They told us to work hard, buy a home, raise a family, and live the dream. But while we were grinding away, they were rewriting the rules. Hedge funds, foreign investors, and mega corporations swooped in and bought the homes right out from under our noses. And they want to do it again!
Look around, entire neighborhoods turned into rental portfolios for Wall Street. The same people who crashed the housing market in 2008 are now buying the recovery. They want to own it all.
And you think they’re doing it because they care about “affordable housing”? Please. They care about control. Control of where you live, how much you pay, and how much you struggle to keep up.
But here’s the part they didn’t see coming: we’re fighting back…one backyard at a time.
They Control the Streets. We Control the Backyards.
You can’t outspend a hedge fund. You can’t out-lobby a billionaire. But you can outsmart them.
Accessory Dwelling Units — ADUs — are the revolution they didn’t anticipate. The zoning laws are changing. Cities and states are saying, “Yes, you can build.”
And when you do, you’re not just adding a guest house, you’re building power and protection.
An ADU means rental income that stays local, wealth that stays in your family, and homes that serve people instead of portfolios. It means your kid can afford to move out and stay close. It means aging parents can live independently but nearby. It means your backyard becomes your fortress of freedom in a system that wants you dependent and priced out.
Follow the Money, Then Take It Back
Here’s the dirty secret they don’t want you to know:
Over 30% of all home purchases in major U.S. markets are made by institutional investors. Foreign buyers are buying up property faster than first-time home buyers. And average wages? Flat lined for decades.
You see the pattern. They tighten their grip while they tell us it’s “just the market.”
But “the market” isn’t natural, it’s engineered.
The average homeowner doesn’t stand a chance in that game unless you play smarter. ADUs are how we play smarter.
You can’t control the Fed.
You can’t control Wall Street.
But you can control your backyard.
An ADU turns one income stream into two, or more if your zone allows for multiple ADUs!
One opportunity into a small legacy.
It’s the classic loophole completely legal, beautifully local, and impossible for them to monopolize.
This Is About More Than Money
Let’s be real for a moment, this is about more than just economics. This is about dignity.
About not being forced to sell the home your parents built because property taxes exploded. About not watching your kids move three states away just to find something affordable.
We’re tired of begging the system for scraps. We’re done waiting for politicians to “fix housing.”
The fix is already here, it’s sitting behind your house, waiting to be built. The humble but mighty ADU.
The ADU Revolution Is Now!
While they’re trying to build luxury towers and corporate compounds, you can be building resilience.
While they lobby for tax loopholes, you can be creating real community wealth.
While they hoard, you can build and share, with family, with neighbors, with people who deserve a chance.
And the time to act is now! You mush be fast, decisive, and smart. The tools are here. The laws are changing. This opportunity won’t last forever.
Don’t wait for permission from the same people who profit off your dependence.
Protect yourself. Protect your family. Protect your community.
Because clearly, they’re not interested in doing that anymore.
This isn’t just construction, it’s real estate war, join the ADU revolution.
They control the streets.
We control the backyards.
Arm yourself with ADUs. Join the movement. Build your freedom.

Why Every Bay Area Engineer Needs an ADU in Their Investment Stack
You’ve built systems that scale, debugged code at 2 a.m., and optimized pipelines until your brain melted — but your money? It’s still trapped in the same volatile markets as everyone else’s. The stock market doesn’t care about your logic, your sprint velocity, or your perfect commit history. It’s chaos dressed in a hoodie.
An ADU — Accessory Dwelling Unit — is the missing line of code in your financial architecture. A physical, income-generating node that compounds over time instead of disappearing into algorithmic smoke. MOMO Homes has cracked the formula: high-quality panelized builds that go up fast, stay strong, and start earning faster than traditional builds or conversions. They’re engineered, not improvised.
Think of it as the real-world version of passive income: you deploy once, maintain occasionally, and watch your investment pay dividends in rent and appreciation. In a region where housing is a blood sport, owning an ADU isn’t just smart — it’s a necessity for a best approach wealth portfolio.
It’s time to move part of your portfolio from the cloud to the ground.

Why Smart Contractors Are Ditching Big Builds for Fast, Modular ADUs That Pay in Weeks
For years, contractors have been chained to the same grind — giant builds, endless delays, clients breathing down their necks while inspectors shuffle paper like medieval monks. Every project a gamble, every payout months away. But a quiet revolution is spreading through California’s backyards, and the contractors who spotted it early are already cashing in. It’s not condos or high-rises. It’s ADUs — panelized, precision-built homes that install faster than most people can finish a kitchen remodel.
Traditional construction feels prehistoric next to the new modular process. MOMO Homes’ ADUs, for instance, arrive pre-engineered, panelized, and ready to assemble in days instead of months, and with less labor! There’s no waiting for subcontractors to show, no fighting the supply chain apocalypse, and no praying the weather holds out. Every detail is handled off-site, so by the time the unit hits the foundation, half the job is already done. For builders used to juggling chaos, that’s not innovation — it’s liberation.
And then there’s the money. While most big builds take half a year or more before a dime clears, these modular ADUs can be producing rental income within 6 months. The margins are good, the turnaround is quick, and the client satisfaction rate blows traditional projects out of the water. That’s why so many contractors are pivoting — not out of nostalgia, but survival instinct.
The market’s only getting hotter. California’s housing shortage isn’t a problem — it’s an invitation and golden opportunity! Homeowners are hungry for ways to turn their property into income, and cities are finally cutting through red tape to make ADUs easier than ever to build. The contractors who position themselves now — those who can say, “Yeah, we offer MOMO ADUs” — will own the next decade of small-scale development. The rest will still be buried in paperwork, wondering where the money went.
For the builders paying attention, this isn’t about chasing trends. It’s about adapting before everyone else wakes up. Big builds will always have their place, but smart contractors know the game has changed. Panelized ADUs are faster, cleaner, and profitable — and they’re not the future. They’re right now.

San Diego ADU Builders: Stop Chasing Projects. Start Owning Them.

Every week, more homeowners wake up to the value of adding a backyard unit for rental income, increased equity and resell value, family living, or lifestyle flexibility. The demand is massive — and only growing larger! Of course you already know this.
But for builders and general contractors, that growth can come with headaches:
Material delays that wreck timelines.
Labor shortages that eat into profits.
Unpredictable schedules that keep you chained to the phone instead of running your business.
Razor-thin margins that make winning bids feel like losing battles.

KITSAP REGIONAL COORDINATING COUNCIL PRE-APPROVED ADU PLANS
The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council has posted on their webpage they have begun work on coordinating for pre-approved ADUs plans for Kitsap County, as well as the cities of Bainbridge Island, Bremerton, Port Orchard and Poulsbo.
The Pre-Approved plans will ideally help speed up the planning, permitting and construction process so the applicants can use it as soon as possible.
I like this approach to add ADUs and help incentivize their utilization. Making them more approachable, like an online shopping process where you just click and the purchase is done and the item is on the way, makes sense.
It seems like four plans are available now, with an additional two more plan sets coming later.
I’d like to see one of those set plans be a 2 ADU unit, ideally stacked for those lots in Kitsap County UGAs (Urban Growth Areas) that allow up to two ADUs per lot. Some of the lots are constrained in footprint size, and building up is a great way to address this.
While this is a step in the right direction for helping applicants utilize ADUs, I still feel strongly about cities, counties and governments using a tax abatement program for ADUs for a set period years, such as 5 years for one ADU, or 10 years for two ADUs. They could make the requirements for earning this abatement be something like the ADU has to be rented out at or below fair market value, and if that requirement is not met the remainder of the tax abatement time period is forfeit.
I am looking forward to seeing more density and value added from ADUs.
