Abodu is a prefab ADU manufacturer and designer based in Redwood City, California. They offer 3 ADU models, with floor plans ranging from 335 square feet to 650 square feet. In terms of style, Abodu’s ADUs have a sleek cabin design, featuring large glass doors, dual panel windows, slanted roofs, all with a Scandinavian influence. While floor plans are pre-designed, external and internal upgrades are available for customization, including decking, landscaping, solar paneling, and more. 

Homes are built on a typical raised concrete foundation with a crawlspace. ADUs arrive on site in a highly finished state and include appliances, fixtures, electrical, heating, A/C, and plumbing. It is worth noting that Abodu handles all design, permitting, approval, building, installation, and shipping; however, they only service the San Jose area. Homes are delivered in a highly finished state, leaving very little work to be done on site. On-site work can be finished in as little as 2 weeks. On average, the entire build process takes about 4 months. 

Strengths:

• Speedy design, delivery, and installation

• Offer turn-key building services

• Homes are delivered in a highly-finished state 

Reasons they might not be for you:

• You are looking for a bigger home (their largest floor plan is 650 sqft)

• You are located outside of their San Francisco Bay Area installation zone

• You are looking for more flexibility in layout or home design
