Cottages
Small Footprint Homes. This was considered a typical sized house pre-60s.

A cottage home is a small dwelling typically known for their charm, simplicity, and intimate scale. Having a smaller footprint makes these home more affordable and easier to maintain.  Cottage homes often offer more attainable housing options compared to larger single-family homes. This allows for a diverse mix of residents, including young professionals, empty nesters, and small families. Cottage homes are popular among those seeking a simpler and more intimate lifestyle, as they offer a cozy and inviting atmosphere that encourages a close-knit community feel.

Multiplex Units
Duplex, Triplex, Quadplex, et cetera

These housing types promote efficient land use, provide diverse housing options, and offer cost savings. Configurations include side-by-side, back-to-back, or stacked units. Multiplex housing provides a range of housing options within the same development. Different unit sizes and layouts can cater to various household sizes, lifestyles, and income levels. This diversity attracts a wider range of residents to the community. Shared walls and infrastructure reduce construction and maintenance costs, making these housing types more affordable for both developers and residents. Additionally, shared amenities and services can be more cost-effective when distributed among multiple units.

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU)
Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU)

An ADU, or Accessory Dwelling Unit, is a self-contained living unit that is located on the same property as a primary residence. Also known as an Alley Flat, Carriage House, Granny Flat, In-law Suite, or backyard cottage, an ADU is typically smaller in size and has its own separate entrance, kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping area. While ADUs can be attached to the main house, such as a converted attic/basement or garage, they are often detached structures like a standalone cottage or apartment above a garage. ADUs are designed to provide additional housing options on residential properties, allowing homeowners to accommodate extended family members, or generate rental income. This product type provides for flexible and diverse housing options within the community.

Attached Narrow Homes
Townhouses and Rowhouses

The Narrow Home category is designed to maximize space, making efficient use of the available land with increased density. Attached Narrow Homes share one or more walls with their neighbors, typically have a long and narrow footprint, with multiple levels to accommodate living spaces. This design allows for a higher density of housing while maintaining a sense of community and walkability within the neighborhood.

Jurisdictions (AHJs)
Each jurisdiction strives to foster dynamic communities while also ensuring sustainable returns on their public investments. In today's world, where large-scale 'big box' development dominates the landscape, it's essential for jurisdictions to equip local developers with the necessary tools and support to remain competitive. This assistance can often make the crucial difference between whether local development is possible. By empowering local developers, jurisdictions can balance economic growth with community-focused development, cultivating diverse, thriving, and economically resilient communities.
Many jurisdictions are paving the way for local development opportunities by adopting pre-reviewed plan books and granting conditional approvals. This strategy not only enhances the quality of the product being developed but also results in improved financial outcomes for all parties involved, both private and public.
