Payment Options We Offer

Financing Plans
Many homeowners in Thousand Oaks choose to spread the cost of an ADU over time through a financing partner we can connect you with. We won’t quote you an APR here because your rate depends on your credit profile, the project size, and current market conditions, but the process is straightforward and we’ll help you compare what’s available. You’ll see the numbers in writing before you commit to anything.
Major Credit Cards
Some families prefer to put portions of the project on a card to manage cash flow or earn rewards. We accept major credit cards for deposits and progress payments. Just ask about current card payment policies when we’re putting together your written price, and we’ll make sure the payment schedule lines up with how you like to pay.
Cash or Check
If you’ve been planning this ADU for a while and have funds set aside, paying by cash or check keeps things simple. There’s no third-party approval, no application, and no extra paperwork. We’ll give you a clear payment schedule tied to project milestones, so you always know what’s due and when.
Up-Front Written Pricing
This isn’t technically a payment method, but it’s the part that matters most: every Seedling ADU Thousand Oaks project gets a written price before any work starts. That number includes the full scope, and it doesn’t change when the crew arrives. So whichever payment route you choose, you’re planning around a real number, not a guess.
Simple Application Process
Applying for financing through our network takes about as long as a phone call, and Ben Ortega walks you through it personally. Here’s how it goes:
- 1
Talk to us first. Call (805) 309-3462 and tell us about your lot, your goals for the ADU, and which direction you’re leaning: attached, detached, or a garage conversion. We’ll listen more than we talk.
- 2
Have a quick pre-qualification conversation. If financing looks like the right fit, we’ll connect you with a lending partner who will ask a few basic questions about income and credit. It’s a soft conversation, not a stack of paperwork.
- 3
Choose the plan that fits. Once you’ve seen the terms, we’ll fold your chosen payment plan into the written project price and timeline. By the time you sign, the monthly picture is already clear.
