Building an in-law suite takes between two and seven months. Converting an existing basement, attic, or room can be done in about two months. Constructing a new addition or detached suite often takes four to five months for construction, plus one to two months for permits. The bigger the suite, the longer it will take. 

Yes, you can build an in-law suite in your backyard if you meet local building codes and zoning regulations. An in-law suite often occupies 300 to 800 square feet. Be sure to follow size restrictions, utility separations, and entrance requirements. Hiring a qualified contractor ensures you meet all regulatory requirements because they can pull permits, double-check local code, and gather other skilled pros to work on your suite.
