My neighbor built a 2-story duplex, why can’t I?

Your neighbor just built something big,
But you tried and hit a wall.
Same block. Same zoning.
Totally different outcome.
Let’s break down why. 👇

Thinking about building an ADU in California?

Yes, the 2025 laws made it easier.
But “easier” doesn’t mean easy.

Before you build, here’s what can still block you:
🟠 Zoning rules
🟠 Permitting delays
🟠 Utility approvals
🟠 Site conditions
🟠 Missed red flags

Smart homeowners don’t guess, they check.
Illustration of a backyard with a small ADU next to a main house and a construction crane. Text reads: “The Hidden Challenges of Building an ADU in California — Even with new 2025 laws, it’s not as simple as it sounds.” Icons and bullet points list zoning requirements: setbacks, lot coverage, fire lane access, max unit count. A permit form with a red “X” overlays a site map. Text reminds viewers that zoning doesn’t guarantee buildability. A city hall icon and a checklist showing permit delays, revisions, and inspections. Text explains that “streamlined” doesn’t mean fast. A house illustration next to icons for sewer, electricity, and water. A clipboard marked “Pending” represents required written utility approvals. Text explains this process can stall a project for months.
