A couple of companies opted out of building in Norco, but Backyard Estates had prior Norco ADU experience and its site survey showed no sewage pump was needed. Ken praised the care from Dusty and the subcontractors. https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/caos0arstt 191 2025-12-04T18:38:44.860Z yes 2026-10-30T18:02:45.000Z monthly 0.6 https://www.backyardestates.com/customer-stories/dan Dan: building an Estate 800 ADU in Glendora, CA https://embed-ssl.wistia.com/deliveries/8bec54be45c6d040580b248cf14cef409dae9145.jpg?image_crop_resized=1280x720 Dan, who has built three homes, called his Glendora ADU the most pleasant building experience he's ever had.

They took a fifteen-year fixed loan at a very low rate, and the rent is more than twice their payment, leaving $1,600 extra every month. They also see it as a safety net, since they could rent out the main house and move into the smaller unit. https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/5fk2znuy7h 121 2025-12-12T18:53:00.000Z yes 2026-08-17T17:13:45.000Z monthly 0.6 https://www.backyardestates.com/customer-stories/jennifer Jennifer: building an Estate 600 ADU in Rancho Cucamonga, CA https://embed-ssl.wistia.com/deliveries/d1186b3359edbbfcca971cf507bb2f9d.jpg?image_crop_resized=1280x720 After her father passed away, Jennifer built a 600 sq ft Estate 600 in Rancho Cucamonga with Backyard Estates so her mother could have her own space and kitchen close to family.

After meeting Adam, they went to every Backyard Estates open house, borrowing ideas for their customized Estate 750+, a two-bedroom, 749 sq ft unit they may one day move into while their daughter's family or a renter takes the main house.

He says Adam and the architect were on the same page, and the project kept moving during an unexpected family trip to Costa Rica. Six to eight weeks after breaking ground he had a tenant, taking him from three mortgages to zero. https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/ov76nwdq35 139 2025-12-12T23:24:00.000Z yes 2026-11-09T18:20:20.000Z monthly 0.6 https://www.backyardestates.com/customer-stories/christina Christina: building an Estate 600 ADU in Chino, CA https://embed-ssl.wistia.com/deliveries/225dd93f131aa633605b13dfc5538be4.jpg?image_crop_resized=1280x720 Retired with plenty of space, Christina in Chino built an ADU as an income supplement after spotting the Backyard Estates signage in the building where her chiropractor is. Seeing an ADU placed on her lot on the computer helped her picture it, and once construction began she was impressed by how fast the crews worked. She says the finished unit is more beautiful than she expected and she didn't have to do anything. https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/tjdihsv9td 140 2026-10-23T17:56:35.382Z yes 2026-10-29T20:00:36.000Z monthly 0.6 https://www.backyardestates.com/customer-stories/jason Jason: building an Estate 750+ ADU in Claremont, CA https://embed-ssl.wistia.com/deliveries/2bbd6f1f1a53e78953d4880bb378da60.jpg?image_crop_resized=1280x720 Jason of Claremont built an Estate 750+, a two-bedroom, 749 sq ft ADU, so his aging parents could live close by.

Adam then talked to the city to remove costly requirements like landscaping and extra water meters, and Tom helped move the washer and dryer without resubmitting plans.
