- These 4 homeowners built tiny homes in their yards to be better caregivers for their loved ones
Homeowners are increasingly building accessory dwelling units (ADUs) in their yards for various reasons, including generating rental income or facilitating multi-generational living. The trend is particularly noted for keeping loved ones who require care close by, which provides flexibility for adapting long-term care plans. For example, Lena Koropey plans to build a 750-square-foot ADU on her property in Mattituck to create space while ensuring her mother remains comfortable and supported at home.
