Los Gatos built its reputation on a historic downtown, mountain-foothill scenery, and some of the most sought-after real estate in the county. That reputation is exactly what makes a rental ADU here such a strong income property: tenants pay a premium to live in a town this well-regarded.
No new mortgage, no new school district, no goodbye to the Los Gatos neighbors you know. Just more space, right where you are.
No bidding wars, no move-in surprises, no guessing what a new house actually needs. Just a fixed price, on the Los Gatos property you already know.
Parents, grown kids, or whoever needs it get their own front door and their own space, close enough to see every day.
One team handles the entire process under one roof, so you don't have to coordinate a separate architect, permit expediter, and contractor with the Town of Los Gatos yourself.
We manage every step of design, permitting, and construction, so you don't have to navigate the Town of Los Gatos' process on your own.

Every year that yard sits unused in Los Gatos is rent, equity, and space someone in your family could actually be using.
What a well-built two-bedroom ADU could realistically earn, driven by Los Gatos' premium over neighboring rental markets.
In equity your property isn't capturing yet. A legal, permitted ADU is one of the few upgrades that adds this much value to a Los Gatos home.
Without it, aging parents, adult kids, or long-term guests are stuck choosing between crowding your home or leaving Los Gatos altogether.
None of that has to stay true. Here's what changes once you build.
Every floor plan includes architectural drawings, structural engineering, and Title 24 compliance, finished to match the character of Los Gatos' established neighborhoods.

"I'm usually stingy with five-star reviews, but Apex Homes absolutely rocks. From the first call, they treated my scattershot sketches like gold: polished the design, wrangled the permits so I never saw City Hall, and kept every penny transparent."

A look at completed Apex Homes ADU builds across the Bay Area.
service includes:
A 991 sq ft 3-bed / 2-bath detached ADU in San Jose, fully condo-converted under AB 1033 and ready for separate sale — either the main house or the ADU can be acquired, financed, and resold on its own.
service includes:
Set on a corner lot in San Jose, this 983 sqft, two-story ADU is positioned at the rear of the property. It's a placement that lets a growing family live together today, and converts just as easily to a rental down the road.
service includes:
A 749 sq ft, 2-bed / 2-bath detached ADU in San Jose, built turnkey alongside a full remodel and ADU-title-conversion of the existing main house. The owner ends up with two independent rental units on a single 7,800 sq ft lot.
service includes:
A 1,200 sq ft, 3-bed / 2-bath detached ADU added to a duplex lot in central San Jose — taking the property from two income units to three, with the new ADU placed at the rear of a deep narrow lot and four mature trees preserved through construction.
Design-builders, general contractors, and prefab vendors each cover part of the job. Apex Homes covers all of it, in-house.
