At the intersection of innovation and practicality in Long Beach, California, Modern ADU Builder and Garage Conversion has established itself as a transformative force in residential property enhancement. Our company, conveniently located at 1775 Ohio Ave, brings together an exceptional team of designers, architects, builders, and project managers united by a shared vision: to create beautiful, functional accessory dwelling units that maximize property potential while addressing the evolving housing needs of our diverse coastal community.
The accessory dwelling unit movement has found particularly fertile ground in Long Beach, which now proudly leads California as the highest per capita producer of ADUs statewide. This remarkable distinction reflects both progressive local policies and the entrepreneurial spirit of homeowners seeking to optimize their investments. The statistics tell a compelling story: in 2023, our city issued an impressive 671 ADU permits, representing a more than ten-fold increase from the mere 59 permits approved in 2018. This exponential growth underscores the tremendous opportunity that ADUs present for Long Beach property owners.
Modern ADU Builder and Garage Conversion offers comprehensive services encompassing every aspect of ADU development, from initial concept and design through permitting, construction, and final finishing touches. Our expertise spans all ADU types, including detached new constructions that create independent living spaces in your yard, attached additions that seamlessly expand your existing home, garage conversions that transform underutilized storage into premium living areas, and space-efficient junior ADUs (JADUs) that repurpose portions of your current home.
The financial advantages of adding an ADU to your Long Beach property extend far beyond the immediate benefits. As the median home price in our city has risen to $760,000—representing a striking 32% increase over just five years—ADUs offer a strategic investment opportunity with exceptional returns. Properties with ADUs in California have demonstrated significantly higher appraised values, with median values reaching $1,064,000 compared to $715,000 for properties without ADUs. This valuation premium reflects both the income potential and the enhanced functionality that these additional living spaces provide.
Our design philosophy embraces both aesthetic excellence and functional efficiency. We recognize that Long Beach’s diverse neighborhoods—from the historic districts to the coastal communities and the developing areas of North and East Long Beach—each have their own distinctive character. Our designs respect and complement these existing architectural contexts while introducing contemporary elements that enhance livability and appeal. Whether we’re creating a sleek, modern detached unit or converting a vintage garage into a charming living space, our work is characterized by thoughtful integration with the primary residence and surrounding environment.
What distinguishes Modern ADU Builder and Garage Conversion is our comprehensive understanding of the regulatory landscape governing ADU development in Long Beach. We navigate the complex interplay between California state laws—which have progressively simplified approval processes and eliminated many previous restrictions—and local regulations with expert precision. Our clients benefit from our intimate familiarity with the city’s ADU-Garage Conversion Submittal Packet requirements and streamlined permitting processes, ensuring projects move forward efficiently while maintaining full compliance.
For many of our clients, garage conversions represent an especially attractive option, offering the most cost-effective path to adding living space. Long Beach’s specific standards for garage conversions have made this process more straightforward, and our expertise in this area is unmatched. We transform existing structures into beautiful, comfortable living spaces while addressing all technical requirements, from proper insulation and ventilation to electrical systems and plumbing installations. The result is a seamless conversion that often surprises clients with its transformation from utilitarian storage to sophisticated living space.
As Long Beach works toward its mandated goal of adding 26,502 housing units by 2029, ADUs have already made a significant contribution, accounting for 5.4% of this target—nearly twice the percentage of other large California cities. Modern ADU Builder and Garage Conversion is proud to be part
