        "text": "The timeline for ADU construction generally spans several months, from initial design to final occupancy. Permitting processes, especially in areas like Los Angeles, can take 2-4 months depending on city department workloads and project complexity. Construction itself typically ranges from 4-8 months, influenced by factors such as weather, material availability, and the chosen builder's efficiency. Overall, expect 8-12 months from start to finish.",
