HelloADU's "Bright in Your Own Backyard" San Mateo County is a One Stop Shop for homeowners who are motivated to add second units to their homes.

 

In early 2020 Hello Housing launched this new program in partnership with San Mateo County and the Cities of East Palo Alto, Redwood City and Pacifica offering free project management support to homeowners from initial feasibility through the completion of construction. 

 

The program is now in full operation and the available positions have been filled with incredible homeowner partners who are now in the active stages of building their ADU projects with the help of Hello Housing.  

​
