You're not alone — in Long Beach, a huge share of older buildings have been chopped up over the decades, and most owners are stuck. You can't count that income at the bank, you're carrying liability if a tenant gets hurt, and it quietly drags down your property's value.In this episode, Juan Huizar and Cody Charnell break down a new statewide California law that finally creates a real, streamlined pathway to legalize an existing unpermitted unit — without the full cost, fees, and energy standards of building a brand-new ADU.
