Abodu

Our Abodu One project was just completed and we couldn’t be happier. The process was unbelievably seamless and felt TOO easy. Across every department, everyone that works for Abodu was just lovely to work with. It’s evident that friendliness is important to the hiring managers. Highly recommend!!!

Working with Abodu was a deeply disappointing experience. They are extremely dishonest. Like others, we found it more expensive, time-consuming, and stressful than hiring a custom ADU contractor. Despite promises of limiting onsite work to only 5-weeks and weekly updates, communication was poor, with messages often ignored for weeks. They dug up our yard in October and didn't fix it until April, making it unusable for 7+months. Abodu outsources to the lowest bidders who deliver subpar work. We came home to find our irrigation and drainage systems destroyed. They were recently installed and the workers came and dug up the yard with no notice. They also use underage workers. I had to notify Abodu multiple times that this is illegal and want the kids to be removed from our property. Despite repeated complaints, Abodu was dismissive. We had to constantly monitor our home cameras every day to ensure that they don't bring kids to the worksite. They also use bait-and-switch tactics. We were asked to pay for December delivery on two days' notice, only for the unit to arrive in April. Their contract has clauses to charge clients a penalty if there is delay in payment or we do not receive the unit on time but holds Abodu to no standard. After delivery, they promised to finish work in two weeks but never did--ultimately they got back to us saying they don't want to come back and instead to keep the1500 deposit. This was very unprofessional. We've since had to hire our own contractors to complete and repair their unfinished work. Due to Abodu not doing their job, we had to hire contractors to fix our patio, fix the electrical work, remove the deck and build a new one, repair flooring, repair unfinished wall, add vent in the bathroom and a long tail of other things. At the end of the day, we had to do substantial project management so it ended up costing us more time and money. The main appeal of hiring Abodu was they would handle things end to end but they did not even do the bare minimum.

Do NOT choose this company for your ADU. Yes, the 500sf unit design is beautiful, but you have options with other companies. I have referred several ADU customers to other companies after my horrible experience with Abodu. Specifically, the company will lose you money with the delays and lack of organization. I was one year past the contract due date. Errors on Abodu's part include: not completing or following up on communication with PGE (lying to me about this timing via email on several occasions) , not completing the yard drain (thank you to city inspector), sales team lying about cost and timing with project manager refuting the information of the sales team, etc., etc.. Christian (a GM) telling me "we don't need you as a customer". My fault for not stopping then. You have options and given Abodu's lack of care for their customer's experience and adherence to your binding contract you will be legally bound to lose your deposit(s) if you want to exit the contract due to the above. Good luck to you as ADU's are wonderful. You have options and it is worth paying more with another company for your ADU.

I'm in the research phase of finding an ADU, so I can't speak to the build and ownership aspect of Abodu. What has put Abodu at the top of my very short list: Design and build quality, and customer service. Putting a structure on a property can be challenging, and for a competitive price, Abodu has put together a high quality, beautiful home, and a construction process model that removes as many headaches as possible for the buyer. I visited the Redwood City showroom, and if you're considering an ADU, I highly recommend seeing their units in person. Their sales pitch? That's it. Top quality homes at a competitive price and an easy process from the showroom to after you've moved in.

Great experience working with team over at Abodu. They are extremely well versed with all the intricacies of these deployments (like dealing with the various county/town legislations) and overall they provide a lot of flexibility in the type of upgrades you can do with your unit and their communication/level setting abilities were great as well.
