Abodu

Abodu is a California company that designs, builds, and installs modular backyard homes and accessory dwelling units (ADUs) for homeowners and apartment operators. Its range includes seven home models, from a 385-square-foot studio to a 1,195-square-foot, three-bedroom home, as well as a backyard office. Customers can compare floor plans, configure a model, and choose from available finishes. Abodu also supports uses such as long-term rentals, family living, guest accommodation, home offices, and wildfire rebuilding.

The company offers state-approved plans, fixed all-in pricing, and a managed process that includes property assessment, design guidance, permitting, indoor construction, and installation. Abodu says on-site installation can take as little as one day. Its services include checking a property’s suitability, estimating potential rental returns with an ADU calculator, and providing resources on California ADU rules and costs. Abodu also offers multifamily solutions and a fire-resistant home option, with design features intended to help protect against fire, smoke, and embers. The company reports installations across more than 90 California cities.
