Junior ADU (JADU) in Loomis
Upside ADU builds junior adu (jadu)s in Loomis, Placer County, for a $1,000 deposit with transparent fixed pricing and inspection-tied payments. A typical Loomis junior adu runs $46,200–$168,000 all-in, and we permit it through the Town of Loomis / Placer County Building Division end to end.

Loomis rules that affect a junior adu
A junior ADU stays inside your existing Loomis home (up to 500 sq ft) with an efficiency kitchen and its own entrance, so it skips most setback and site-work questions. Note that JADUs carry an owner-occupancy requirement, which we confirm against Placer County rules.
Local permitting: Loomis reviews ADUs through the Town of Loomis with Placer County building support. Rural-residential zoning means larger minimum lots, frequent septic and well systems, and tree-protection review — all of which we scope before pricing a detached build.
That's the junior adu-specific picture. For the full Placer County rulebook — every setback, height, and owner-occupancy detail — see our Sacramento-region ADU rules guide, and learn how the build type works statewide on our junior adu (jadu) page.

In the Placer County market that prices out to about $210–$336 per square foot, or $46,200–$168,000 for a finished, permitted unit. A typical Loomis junior adu rents for $1,700–$2,700 a month.
