        "text": "Converting an existing garage into an ADU offers several benefits. It can be a more cost-effective option than building a new detached structure, as it utilizes an existing foundation and roof. The construction timeline is often shorter because the main shell is already in place. Garage conversions are also highly sustainable, repurposing an existing structure rather than building from scratch. This type of ADU provides a convenient way to add living space, generate rental income, or provide housing for family members, often with minimal impact on yard space.",
