Two tenants in SFR with ADU?

Hi, I am evaluating to buy an SFR which has an ADU. First floor 2 bed 1 bath and ADU is on top floor with its own kitchen, 2 bed and 1 bath.

My question is can I have two tenants (two separate leases) one for main house and other for the ADU?

Won’t this be same as multi family duplex?

Hi Kailas - 

Yes, you can typically rent out the main house and the ADU to separate tenants on separate leases (so long as you're compliant with city regulations/restrictions). It's similar to a triplex in that you're renting three units, however it is a single family residence with an ADU...three leases in place does not change that. Happy to connect as I'm from Boston and familiar with this market.
