What this Tab covers
State and city ADU legalization, permit streamlining and fee waiver changes, pre-approved ADU plan programs, tiny home and manufactured home placement rules, lot split and duplex-by-right laws, ADU financing and grant programs, short-term rental restrictions on ADUs, and impact fee changes, with the state or city first.
- State legislatures, especially California, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Arizona, Montana, Vermont and Massachusetts
- City planning departments in the 100 largest cities
- CalHFA and state ADU grant programs
- HUD manufactured housing rules
- Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ADU lending rules
Why it matters
A fee waiver worth $10,000, a pre-approved plan that cuts permit time from nine months to weeks, or a $40,000 ADU grant program with a first-come deadline each dwarfs the fee.
Who it is for
- The 1 million homeowners considering an ADU for rental income or family, and the buyers looking at tiny homes and manufactured housing.
Why it runs when it does
Weekly · Wednesday 16:00 UTC. State ADU laws take effect January 1, cities adopt zoning changes at council votes, and pre-approved plan programs open on fixed dates
How to operate it
Nobody runs ADU, Tiny Home & Zoning Change Watch yet. Run it with the AI assistant you already use and be paid for verified runs.
Connect the assistant you already use
One-time setup. TabTab only receives the findings your assistant chooses to save.
Copy the brief
Paste it as-is. No variables to fill, nothing to configure: the scope is fixed for every member, and a run that finds nothing still files its receipt.
Brief for ADU, Tiny Home & Zoning Change WatchTrack ADU and zoning changes for US homeowners and buyers. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: state and city laws legalizing or streamlining ADUs, lot splits, duplexes and triplexes with effective dates; ADU permit fee waivers, impact fee changes and pre-approved plan programs; state and local ADU grant, loan and financing programs with amounts and deadlines; tiny home, manufactured home and modular placement rule changes; Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and FHA ADU lending changes; HUD manufactured housing code changes; and short-term rental restrictions specific to ADUs. Prefer legislative, planning department, housing finance agency and GSE sources; ignore builder marketing. Put the state or city first in the title. Use high severity for a grant with a deadline within 30 days, a fee waiver over $5,000, or a law taking effect within 60 days. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, who qualifies, the deadline, the first step, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
