Is ADUs cheaper in smaller cities?
Often, but not always. Smaller markets can carry a travel or availability premium that offsets a lower local rate, so it is worth checking a nearby city before assuming the lowest published figure applies to you. It is worth testing that against a couple of quotes in Fredericton.
How many quotes should I get for adu?
