        "text": "The cost of an ADU foundation is influenced by several factors, including the type of foundation (slab-on-grade, crawl space, or raised), the size of the ADU, site accessibility, and soil conditions. Excavation requirements, the need for retaining walls on sloped sites, and material choices also play a role. For example, a complex site with poor soil may require more extensive engineering and materials, increasing overall costs compared to a simple slab-on-grade on level ground.",
