        "text": "Yes, converting your garage into an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is a popular option in many Bay Area cities due to favorable state and local regulations aimed at increasing housing density. An ADU typically includes a kitchen and bathroom, allowing it to function as a separate living space. This differs from a simple room conversion that doesn't include these amenities. When considering an ADU, a key decision factor is assessing your property's capacity for utilities and separate entry, which can impact feasibility and cost.",
