North Hollywood - An Up And Coming ADU Neighborhood

Updated: Nov 25, 2020

North Hollywood is close enough to Los Angeles that residents can still enjoy doing activities in the city. However, it’s also a retreat to suburban living for its residents. The neighborhood is made up of a variety of residents, ranging from working professionals, couples, and young families to creatives, artists, and entertainers. Building an ADU (accessory dwelling unit) in North Hollywood will increase your current property value by $150,000 - $250,000.

Why is the market for ADU’s trending In North Hollywood?

1. The Arts District

The North Hollywood Arts District began with performance theaters for arts such as jazz music and dancing. Through the years, it was joined by new businesses, one-of-a-kind restaurants, and other performance art theaters, which have successfully drawn more visitors and local artists to the neighborhood. Even though this district started with only one theater, there are now over 20 professional theaters located in the area.

2. Pedestrian Friendly Transportation

North Hollywood is a hub for the Los Angeles Metro. The Orange Line which runs through all of the San Fernando Valley connects with the Red Line which can reach all of the greater Los Angeles area. The Red Line can get you to downtown in less than an hour and Hollywood is only a 15 minute drive away. Residents who live near North Hollywood’s main street at Lankershim have the convenience of easily walking to grocery stores, theaters, restaurants, parks, and the Metro.


3. Affordability

ADU’s are small living units that are usually between 200-1200 square feet. Since September 2020 the state of California has made it easier for home owners to permit and build new units. Why? Because it works. The housing shortage is finally being privatized and its single family home owners that will finally win. Not only are homeowners looking to build more ADU’s in the area, but renters are looking for more private alternatives to apartments in which they can have their own personal space. Rather than paying rent for a small apartment, a tenant would prefer having their own small home. As a homeowner in the area, making an investment in building an ADU will pay off as tenants are ready to move in.

North Hollywood Demographics -

With a population of 74,000 people and 28,000 housing units that were built before 2010, it makes sense that ADU’s built after 2018 are so sought after due to their affordability as well as modern build.
