We're joined by Sean Roberts, CEO, and Jessica Brown, Head of Marketing from Villa Homes, California's leading ADU builder. They discuss the major housing supply issues today and how their prefab ADU model provides an innovative solution through faster, high-quality, and affordable housing. We explore common misconceptions about prefab homes, their typical buyer profiles, how they simplify and enhance the customer experience, their growth plans, and more. Sean and Jessica also share insights on overcoming local regulations, why pricing transparency matters, and how they're working to educate consumers that prefab ADUs are the real estate of the future.
