SELLING AN ADU OR IS IT A DUPLEX?

An owner-occupied property with an accessory dwelling unit will be considered a duplex if sold to an investor who rents both units. Typically, is it easier to get zoning permission for an owner-occupied property with an ADU than for a duplex.  If a rental property is found to be in violation of local codes, a landlord could be required to pay relocation costs for the displaced tenant.
