        "text": "A garage to ADU conversion project typically spans several months from initial planning to final inspection. The design and permitting phase can take 2-4 months, depending on the complexity of the plans and the responsiveness of local building departments. The construction phase itself usually lasts 3-6 months, influenced by factors like the size of the garage, unexpected structural issues, material availability, and weather conditions. Overall, homeowners should generally expect the entire process to take anywhere from 6 to 10 months. Efficient planning and communication with your contractor can help keep the project on schedule.",
