How It Works
Join free & set your area
Tell us the cities or ZIP codes you cover and the ADU types you build. Two minutes, no card.
Homeowners submit requests
People researching their own ADU on aduzoning.org send their location, ADU type, budget, and timeline.
We email you matching leads
When a request lands in a city you serve, you get the full project details by email — with no obligation to take it.
You claim & close
Claim the ones you want, we send the homeowner's name, phone, and email, and you contract and get paid directly. We just make the introduction.
“As an established design-build firm, our intent is to align with clients that share common goals for a project. Working with ADU Zoning has been great. They introduce high-intent clients looking to build ADU projects and we then help those clients navigate the process. Partnering up with ADU Zoning has been a great experience for our firm.”
Eric Martinez, Principal — Urbatect Development (Bay Area & Southern California)
What a Lead Looks Like
Every lead is budget-qualified — the homeowner tells us their project, budget, and timeline before it reaches you, so you're not chasing tire-kickers. Here's a typical one:
| Location | Sacramento, CA 95864 |
| Project | Detached ADU (new build) |
| Budget | $200,000 – $300,000 |
| Timeline | Ready to start in 3–6 months |
| Contact | Released to you when you claim the lead |
Sample for illustration. You'll receive requests as homeowners in your area submit them — frequency depends on local demand, and you're never charged when there are none.
