№ 02 — Questions
North Hollywood ADU questions, answered.
Can I build a JADU and a detached ADU on the same lot?
Yes — California law permits one detached ADU plus one JADU on any single-family parcel. NoHo R1 lots routinely accommodate both.
Do I need to provide parking?
No — transit-priority overlays cover most of NoHo, eliminating parking minimums under AB-68.
What rent does a 750 sf detached ADU command?
2025 comps: $2,650–$2,900 for a furnished 1-BR within ½ mile of the Metro.
