COMMON QUESTIONS
ADU Construction FAQs for Northborough Homeowners
Do I need special permits to build an ADU in Northborough?
Yes. ADUs require building permits from the Northborough Building Department. You may also need zoning approval depending on your property. We handle all permitting and ensure compliance with local ADU regulations.
How long does ADU construction take in Northborough?
Timeline varies by ADU type. Garage conversions take 3-5 months, while detached ADUs take 6-10 months from permits to completion. We provide detailed schedules during planning.
Can I rent out my ADU in Northborough?
Yes, but check current Northborough rental regulations. Typically, the property owner must occupy either the main home or the ADU. Short-term rentals may have additional restrictions.
Will an ADU affect my property taxes?
Yes, adding an ADU increases your property's assessed value, which typically raises property taxes. However, rental income usually far exceeds the tax increase.

Lot size requirements vary by zoning district in Northborough. We'll assess your property during consultation to confirm your lot qualifies for ADU construction.
