Take Advantage of NYS Grants & Local Tax Exemptions
Building an Accessory Dwelling Unit in the Mid-Hudson Valley has never been more financially advantageous. Between state funding programs and municipal tax incentives, eligible property owners can significantly offset construction costs while adding long-term equity to their homes.
NYS Plus One ADU Program: Eligible homeowners across Dutchess, Ulster, Orange, and Putnam counties can access up to $125,000 in state grant funding to build or convert fully compliant secondary units.
Local Property Tax Exemptions (RPTL § 421-p): Protect your investment. Recent New York real property tax laws allow participating municipalities to offer phased tax exemptions on the added value of newly constructed ADUs.
Troy Construction handles the full technical execution—ensuring your design, utility hookups, and building plans meet all local municipal codes required for grant and tax incentive compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions About ADU Construction
Everything you need to know about zoning, timelines, tax incentives, and building on your property.
-
Under New York State programs like the Plus One ADU Program and local property tax exemptions (RPTL § 421-p), single-family properties can qualify for tax relief or funding options when adding secondary dwelling units. Qualification depends on your municipality's zoning regulations, primary residence status, and specific income or rent ceiling requirements. We evaluate your property during the initial site assessment to confirm eligible tax benefits.
-
A typical ADU project takes between 6 to 10 months total. The design, engineering, and municipal permitting phase usually requires 2 to 4 months depending on your local town planning board. Once site prep and construction begin, building completion generally takes 4 to 6 months.
-
Abolutely. Every unit we build is custom-engineered to match the existing architectural aesthetic, siding materials, rooflines, and exterior finishes of your main residence. We handle full architectural drawing packages to ensure visual continuity across your lot.
-
Detached ADUs are standalone structures (like carriage houses or backyard cottages) offering maximum privacy.
Attached ADUs share at least one wall with the primary home, functioning as an addition.
Garage/Interior Conversions turn existing square footage into legal, independent living quarters.
-
It depends on local code and lot capacity. In many cases, an ADU can sub-feed off your existing electrical panel and main water line. For rural or un-sewered properties, we conduct a septic capacity check during design to determine whether your current system can support the additional bedroom.
