Common Questions

FAQ: ADU Design & Permitting

What is the Ready, Set, Orange! program?
Orange County's 2025 initiative that offers pre-approved ADU plans — eliminating the typical design review phase. Property owners can select from pre-approved designs, significantly reducing permit review time and architectural costs.
What are the size limits for ADUs in Orange County?
Minimum 375 sq ft. Maximum varies by lot size and primary dwelling, typically 500–1,000 sq ft. Owner must occupy the primary home or ADU.
Can an ADU be used as a short-term rental?
Many Orange County zones restrict short-term rental use of ADUs to preserve long-term housing supply. Apice reviews your specific zone and advises on rental strategy as part of the engagement.
How long does ADU permitting take?
With Apice managing the submission and using pre-approved plans where applicable, typical ADU permits process in 4–8 weeks in Orange County. Custom designs take 8–14 weeks.
