One Lot. More Opportunity.

What if your single property could do more?

Join us for an educational Lunch & Learn focused on Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), permitting, and new California laws that are reshaping what’s possible on residential lots.

Featuring guest speaker John Swift of Swift Consulting, this conversation will break down the real-world process of planning, permitting, and building an ADU — plus how recent legislation is opening the door to property subdivision and multiple APNs.

This session is practical, approachable, and designed to help you understand what your property (or your client’s property) can actually do — not just what the internet says it can.

✔ Planning an ADU from start to finish
✔ What Santa Cruz actually looks for in ADU approvals
✔ Common permitting pitfalls — and how to avoid them
✔ Converting garages, basements, or existing space into an ADU
✔ New California laws impacting ADUs and property subdivision
✔ How one lot can unlock rental income, flexibility, and long-term value

John Swift is a local ADU and permitting expert with Swift Consulting, specializing in guiding homeowners and professionals through the planning and approval process for ADUs and property development projects throughout Santa Cruz County.
