Rancho Cordova combines older ranch-home neighborhoods with fast-growing new communities. Both can work for an ADU, in different ways.
Who issues ADU permits in Rancho Cordova?
Rancho Cordova incorporated as its own city in 2003, so ADU permits are issued by the City of Rancho Cordova, not Sacramento County. We handle the submittal and coordination.
Which ADU types fit Rancho Cordova homes?
Many established neighborhoods north of Highway 50 have single-story ranch homes on lots with usable backyard depth, which suits a detached ADU. These homes often have attached garages that are also good candidates for conversion.
Newer communities such as those in the southern part of the city tend to have smaller yards and HOAs. Attached ADUs and junior ADUs are often the better fit there. Proximity to transit along the light rail corridor can also affect parking requirements, which are generally waived near transit.
How much does an ADU cost in Rancho Cordova?
Regional starting-point estimates apply in Rancho Cordova: detached adus $150,000 to $300,000+; attached adus $100,000 to $300,000; garage conversions $80,000 to $150,000; junior adus $50,000 to $100,000. Local fees and site conditions move the final number. See costs and financing.
