Pacific Palisades is one of Los Angeles's most sought-after coastal neighborhoods, where an ADU or a whole-home remodel is as much about lifestyle as investment — guest quarters, a home office with an ocean breeze, or space for family. Permits run through LADBS like the rest of the City of Los Angeles, with coastal-zone review applying to some properties. Vision ADU has completed work in the Palisades and manages design, permits, and construction end to end.

Real completed Vision ADU projects in Los Angeles County
Pacific Palisades is part of the City of Los Angeles, so ADU applications are reviewed ministerially through LADBS with no public hearing. Properties in the coastal zone may need an additional coastal development review, which Vision ADU coordinates as part of the permit package. State ADU standards apply, including detached units up to 1,200 square feet. Fees vary by project scope, and we provide a written estimate up front (an estimate only, not a guarantee).
