🏡 Thinking About Your Next Home? Don’t Overlook a Mother-in-Law Suite or ADU
If you’re downsizing, rightsizing, or planning your next chapter, there’s one feature many senior buyers wish they’d considered sooner:
👉 A mother-in-law suite or ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit).
According to Realtor.com, these self-contained spaces — whether a converted garage, private wing, or backyard cottage — offer far more than extra square footage.
Here’s why they matter, especially for older homeowners:
✅ Built-in flexibility – Space for visiting family, caregivers, hobbies, or a private office
✅ Aging-in-place options – Stay independent longer with help close by
✅ Multigenerational living – Be near kids or grandkids while keeping privacy
✅ Potential rental income – Offset expenses or supplement retirement (local rules apply)
As a Seniors Real Estate Specialist® (SRES®) here in Anaheim Hills and Orange County, I help homeowners evaluate properties through the lens of lifestyle, long-term comfort, and future planning — not just bedrooms and bathrooms.
Whether you’re buying your “forever home,” exploring ADU possibilities, or simply thinking ahead, the right layout can create freedom, flexibility, and peace of mind.
