Hatchback Cottages

Hatchback Cottages is a mission-driven company based in Seattle that offers a turnkey solution for backyard cottages (DADU's). We manage the entire process - including design, financing, permitting, and construction - to provide homeowners with flexible options and long-term rental income for their future. Using a tailored economic pro forma, we show homeowners how their cottage will perform based on their location, finances, and intended use (rental, age-in-place, etc.). Our variety of cottages are designed to be high-quality, cost effective, sustainable, and rentable. Hatchback's goal is to increase housing supply in Seattle while retaining the character of single family neighborhoods. Our solution enables homeowners greater stability, flexibility, and options for their future. Hatchback's work is driven by a team of expert designers, contractors, analysts, and advisors who believe in cottages as an innovative housing solution.
