A lot of our handy customers have the skills to assemble our kits on their own. However, you should consider working with a general contractor to ensure everything is built accurately. Flat and smooth surfaces will be best and easiest when building the foundation. Depending on the size and location of your mother-in-law suite, there a few different options for foundation.

Possibilities for Mother-In-Law Suite Kits
Here are some other great ideas for how to use your in-law suite:
-
Guest House:
When friends and family are in town to visit, give them a more comfortable place to stay than a hotel or your spare bedroom.
-

When vacant, use your in-law suite to generate revenue to out-of-town visitors through Airbnb.
-
Accessory Dwelling Unit:
Rent out your space to a contracted tenant.
-
College-Aged Children:
If your son or daughter is about to start college, give them a place to stay that’s cheaper and more comfortable than on-campus dorms and housing.

Give visitors a place right by the pool to change, shower, dry off, eat, and relax.
