ADUs

ADUs, or Accessory Dwelling Units, are an alternative form of real estate which both increase a property’s square footage and creating rentable value. They are quickly gaining interest with both homeowners and savvy investors around the world.

While we don’t cover ADUs on a regular basis, we research and write about them from time to time. Follow this asset if you’re interested. We’ll send occasional updates.

I've recently discovered the Alts newsletter, and am enjoying it. They don't strictly focus on digital assets, which actually helps it keep it more unique in my opinion.
