Frequently asked questions

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU’s)

Do I need to have a primary residence before adding an ADU?
In most cases yes. An ADU is meant to be an add on to your existing home or multi-family dwelling. Some jurisdictions will allow you to build an ADU prior to building the primary residence, if building plans for the primary residence have been approved.
Do all ADU’s require a building permit?
In California the answer is yes. Many states now offer accelerated review processes, and even financial assistance to minimize the administrative hurdle to getting your project approved. Ikkonic’s team will handle all these entitlements as part of the standard purchase of your ADU.
Who pays for the building permits?
Building Permit fees are the clients responsibility. Each locale around the country will have unique building fees based on a variety of factors. Our permit team will present these fees to you as part of the contract process. Rest assured, there will be no surprises, as we capture and relay these costs as soon as there is enough information available about your project.
What do I need to do to prepare for delivery of my ADU?
Sit back and relax, and enjoy the show! Our expert logisticians handle all the red tape and jump through every necessary hoop to make sure your delivery is handled with care and precision. No two deliveries are alike, and our team is battle tested to ensure a seamless process.
Can I finance my ADU the same way I finance a home purchase?

Financing your ADU is much more like financing an addition to your home. Keep in mind, this is an add on structure that can not be leveraged individually. From the lender's perspective, you have or will be adding value to your real estate, and the loan ratios now need to be recalculated to make sure the lender is comfortable with the amount of debt versus the new value after the ADU is complete and installed.

We have great relationships with lenders that will assist in the loan process. They offer products like:

  • Home Equity Lines of Credit
  • Remodel/Addition Loans
  • Personal Loans (Unsecured)
  • Revolving Credit Loans (Credit Cards)
  • Equity Partnership Loans
  • State and Federal Grants

 Single Family Residences (SFR’s)

How do I know if the land I own or may be purchasing is ok to build a home on?
All Single Family home purchases require a feasibility study prior to completing the purchase. We charge a small fee for this service to make sure things like zoning, setback restrictions, easements or floodplain issues won't impact your ability to obtain a building permit. If you move forward with us after the study is completed, the fee is credited back to your overall purchase price.
How long does it take to get a building permit?
The time it takes to obtain a building permit will vary by location. Many of the time delays in a typical home building process have been mitigated by your selection of a pre-designed model that has been partially reviewed and approved in advance. Your site conditions however must be reviewed to ensure your foundation systems meet local building code. 3-6 months is typical in many jurisdictions. Our team is expertly qualified to push this process as quickly as possible, and with all our resources in house we are well positioned to move through the process efficiently.
Is there anything that can be done to make the permit process go faster?
Many jurisdictions do have a fast track process available. This typically comes with an additional fee that is paid to a “Permit Expeditor”. These are consultants that have strong relationships with local planning and Building departments, and are highly effective in most cases to speed up the process, sometimes by as much as 50%. Results will vary based on the specific circumstances of your project.
How long will it take to install my ikkonic home?
Your home will be delivered and installed in as little as a week, and no more than 2 weeks. This of course does not consider rare acts like extreme weather conditions or natural disasters. If you keep in mind that the home has been completely built and inspected in our factories, and the only work to be done on site is unwrapping, setting and connecting your modules to each other, you can understand how quickly this occurs. Your project manager will carefully walk you through the installation process, as it is truly an exciting day to see your new home arrive!
Is financing an ikkonic modular home the same as financing a typical home construction?
The process is the same. Our lenders will review all the typical components of the project; land cost, construction cost, and final value of the completed home. Where the nuance comes in is the draw schedule for construction. Because we purchase all the materials for the home in advance of beginning production of the project, upfront deposits are much higher than site construction. We work with lenders that understand this process and help you understand the cash requirements well in advance of approving the loan.
