Adding space on a Reseda lot
Reseda is in the San Fernando Valley and part of the City of Los Angeles, so projects go through LADBS. On its flat single-family streets, the Baseline Mansionization Ordinance sets how much floor area a house can have, which decides how large an addition can be.
California law also allows an existing garage to be converted into an ADU, often the quickest way to add a rental or a space for family. Whether to convert, add on or build detached depends on the lot, the garage's condition and the utilities; we price the options side by side.
